When is the cut off date for the play-offs?

I am sure Aarnio had a sick note but he made a quick recovery on his long drive down to Bordeaux.

Any news on Palin injury?

Edward Kennet for Aarnio? Drew Kemp for Mcdonald?

Were Daugavpils prevented from joining Extra?

Would Landshut get promoted if they won the playoffs?

Is Nicki riding tomorrow?

I think this will be close, most of Birmingham's riders have had decent meetings at the ewr and kerr is no replacement for Ellis.

I will be surprised if Adam Ellis is riding in this with GP challenge on saturday. I would guess it will be RR as not many guests are available.

I am sorry I missed your umpteen explanations of the league table. Out of interest why would a bonus point not be awarded.....If the teams were level on aggregate?

If Lublin were to win at Leszno, there must be chance (with no Nicki) Czestochowa can win by margin that surpasses Leszno's points difference.

objections 740 supporting 268. Last chance for anyone to object.

why?

I am still hoping Scunny bring back Auty for Pijper. I can see Scunny losing this, Redcar have got a team that will go well round Scunny. With Poole and Leicester still to come we need Auty to stand a chance of making the play offs.

Who is first reserve if Vaculik is out of the GPS?

So far 660 objections and 111 supporting. Last time it finished 1435 objecting and 494 supporting. Am I right in saying there is still a week to get objections in? Maybe the BSPA could put out message/tweet reminding people of the deadline?

I think I can hear Auty warming his bike up.

8 heats for a result! I thought we were pushing it with 10.

I noticed Theo Pijper was TBC in the line up for last Friday, is he still struggling with his injury?

Emil dropped the bike and fooled the ref there.

How will top 6 work? 2 groups of 3 i.e mini leagues or top 2 straight to semi and the others in quarters?

Was there something more to Josh Auty's sacking, a disagreement between riders perhaps.

Amended again the following year! Well it wouldn't surprise me this is the BSPA.

I stand corrected although the rule is still not properly communicated to the fans as it says....... 'A rider absent for an unauthorised reason can now be replaced by a rider with an average of 2.50 lower than the missing rider.' and the rulebook says.......... A guest 25% lower that the absent rider.

I think that rule only applies for 2 weeks. Can Scunny really compete with the likes of Poole or Leicester if they made it to the play offs? Time to strengthen up.
