Overall last nights perfornance was encouraging with regard to what sort of lead we could get from this one. Hopefully Leigh and Rohan dont have any after effects from their horror crash and Dak can turn in the kind of performance that we have come ti expect of late. I think we are capable of a 14 point lead to put us in the driving seat to take the cup.

Good luck for Saturday then!! Last night was positively balmy compared to the forecast!! Lets hope the track action is enough to warm us all up!!

Perhaps I was referring to the tap tap tapping from you from under your bridge. Troll off!!

Well done to the Rebels for a deserved victory. Nearly but not quite from the Witches with Dak below par and Mat outshone by Newman when it mattered. Cook was faultless but Doyle would most likely have done the same. Vissings kamikazee move in 13 nearly spoilt the night but didnt affect the result. If all matches had this kind of passion and excitement then speedway would have far less problems.

Did anybody hear that? No - must have been the wind then! :-P

Seems to be a forgotten match. Can the Witches pull back 14 points to sneak a trophy away from the Rebels? I think it will be close and go to a last heat decider. Could go either way. Up the Witches!!

Nah I wont bother you're not worth it!

I would be more than happy with a 10+ lead given we were the only team to secure a losers point from a visit to Newcastle in the league this year.To feel confident I think we need 16 as this would put pressure on the Diamonds from the off in the return leg. I can see it being less than 10 though!

Somerset,Berwick and Edinburgh all beaten fair and square by the Witches in this KOC comp - we dont need to pretend about anything!

I agree with the lack of info point you make. My original reply set out my acceptance of the decsion but I had only found out of the decision following reading the Rye thread. With each of the other decisions of this ilk there has been a specific statement on the BPSA sitebut not for this one. It is also rather strange that the Witches site has not posted anything on the subject.

Id rather he got a runners up one!!!

Confirmed on the Witches site along with Paul Starke.

It was the only sensible solution. Not ideal but need to get things finished

Do get your facts right - this is the KOC and all races in all rounds were completed.Face facts you just werent good enough!!

I agree that the track is the place to decide any tie.In this case though the only scoreline that wasnt an assumption was the aggregate at the point it was called off. If a restaging was possible then that would have been the right first call. It wasnt hence the decision made. My point was that it was assumed by many that the Comets would have outscored the Witches in those last heats(myself included) The same assumptions were there at heat 11 against the Diamonds but it didnt happen that way! Adds some spice to next years meeting so its not all bad!

The end of this meeting saw Worky going into the last few heats as favourites to win on agg. Just goes to show you cant assume how races might go and that it was right to call the result against the Witches as it stood.

Fingers crossed for some good weather to allow what could be a real cracker of a meeting to go ahead in conditions befitting a final. Two sides that were bulit very differently at the start of the season but now have a very similar look to them and are therefore very evenly matched. I think a lot will depend on which top2 perform better away from home or the top reserve having a stormer. Heres hoping that we see a Witches cup double after the next 8 days!!

Great news for all you Worky fans and speedway in general.

Witches v Somerset in 2nd leg of League Cup final this Thursday. The dates added to the list recently were Sat 27th and Weds 31st for final/rain off reserve date. It would make sense for it to be Sat 27th to leave Weds for a rain off of either final.

I tend to agree with all you are saying here but there is always that optimist in me to think it could still be possible?! It will take all 7 to do their bit and we cant afford the silly falls etc that we have so often seen this year. It aint over til its over!!

Impressive score from him tonight it seems. Can somebody who was there outline how he performed- was he good value for his points?

Unfortunately my 14 point prediction was right. Rebels big favourites now. Lets hope the secondleg can go ahead to get a real result whichever way it goes.

Pack away your rod and go home!!

Witches have 25th 27th and 31st on fixture calender but no scope for rained off final.

I was taking that as a given hence the need for a big win for the Witches at Sheffield. Rye 2x3 point home wins, 2 pts at Sheff and 1 at Ipswich = 9 pts Ipswich 3+2 at home, nothing at Rye plus Sheff away need 4 pts from big win = 9pts Then its down to race points.
