What have two teams going got to anything ? the reason they are going have little to do with speedway rules .

Some fair points .. Guests are never perfect but i never seen anyone come up with better way that covers fairness and also make sure people go to watch the match still . i try to defend the powers that be as i understand how hard it is to get the balance right

Sheff finished above ippo so would have choice of race nights .. so you could make it up as you just have lol . People who don't understand play offs tend to be oap's who have no understanding of modern sport and or have any idea of the money side of the sport as your last line clearly shows .

No need for drama..the rule is pretty simple.Teams can use guests that are not involved in the offs. already explained why that is. so no I did not miss anything.

Of course it does..Lidsey would have a vested interest and could ride in both semi finals if the rules allowed.Harris has none

Why is it not common sense. . The rule is pretty clear.you can use riders not involved in the play offs as guests..

Under your format more teams would have less to play for..that's just common sense.People cry to much about the rules and the effect it has .Polish speedway is packed with fans and money etc.but some of rules like lucky loser are Mickley Mouse.omThen other sports like Gp .That has the best driver in the fastest car having a head start over slowly cars with Worst drivers..You can picks holes in any sport if you wanted to..Cricket has a review system that can show you are out but your still not given out . It's easy to do. If the UK had its own staduims and top riders it would be packed each week and no one would care get if Chris Harris was guesting for Sheff in the final.

No there is no rule ..another forum myth .just like the made up gentlemans agreement ..

It's amazing Not really..I expect you go back into any season in speedway and put that sort of thing up.if you wanted to. Or you could say he changed clubs once and was guest for two teams in the play offs. But of course that's not so dramatic

Made up principles in your case...

What gentleman agreement was that.. got a link to it?

Are they..I followed speedway for years are in a new match you can use a guest if the ave is correct . I expect Harris has rode for most teams this year.. no idea what all the fuss is about.

What do the rules say ?

Why would Danny King sit on the sidelines not earning in the top league for year. I don't know were to start pulling your idea apart..but it's insane if think your going to find 7 Danny King types who are just going to wait to earn money for a call up in case a rider gets injured.. its just the normal when someone moans about the current rules they come up with ideas that can't work in practice.

So wolves will appeal then if Lambert is illegal then ? Will the final be delayed while this happens ?

Not at all..Any one with anyone with any common sense would understand that the Play Offs make the crowds bigger during the season.As it keeps the season alive longer for more sides . thes season would have been over by June otherwise and the staduims would have been empty this has to be explain every year to people for some reason Non speedway fans.? Loads of sports used the same format to decide the champions so pretty easy to understand.What you don't understand is that football is awash with money and have so much prize money and things to play for like champions league etc.So they have the luxury of not having to decide the champions by play offs etc

All guests in any match could classed as doing that This is a new match and just like any match in the history of speedway you can pick a guest that fits into your side.No idea why this should be any different . Wrong is changing the rules after they have been made.

People go so ott about Harris being a guest. . Just dont see any problem with it at all. Just the normal suspects acting like drama queen's over nothing as normal.

Speedway in the country? .to my best knowledge Sweden and Poland do the same .And so do many other sports ..surely you must know all that ?

You can never judge the weather in the UK August was shocking this year You can have plenty of good weather in Sept and Oct . ..its still September now so last night is just unlucky

Been over this a 1000 times..everyone knows the rules before hand. So it means zero how many points anyone finishes anymore its hardly a new thing and everyone understands how it works .

Was he ? Thats mpossible to tell. I don't think anyone in there right mind would pick Harris over Doyle at Ipswich .

Depends if you find the right horse..Lawson or Harris and not as good as Woffy or Muse.for example

Sheffield top two riders have been injured otherwise they would stuck with them. What do expect them to do not try to replace them with the best options. .

Any club will try to win under the rule book in any sport..Not sure what rules tells you have to stick with the ream all season and if you do you do so it counts as .doing it on merit. Why are the TV company not interested in UK speedway what is that based on ? Surely if had no interest you would not show it in the first place.
