pandorum Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Nice bonus for me as I thought it was the 12th. Not bad line ups glad to see Nicki is in  Does the format allow for anyone to win the title? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not bad line ups glad to see Nicki is in  Does the format allow for anyone to win the title? I think the answer is "Yes" but there are a lot of permutations that need to happen for say, Munkebo to win it. Holsted must be favourites with home track advantage plus 4 points in the bag to start with. I'm just going to settle down and enjoy the racing and rely on the graphics man. Join you soon.

pandorum Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Looking at Pauls program I printed off Munkebo can't win whatever they do. Shame that as there should have been some way to make it a 4 horse race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame that as there should have been some way to make it a 4 horse race. I take your word for it. But again, it bears out Ghostwalker's point, to my mind. Bit daft if a team makes the final but can't win it.? What about "the dreaded joker"? They can't win even with that? Anyway, i'm just so glad to see Michel Bech alive and well after that horror spill in Poland. My admiration for these guys is total!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandorum Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 They just confirmed it in Danish. The best they can hope for is a draw with 4 each which isn't going to happen. Start teams off with 3 2 1 0 then then give 4 3 2 0 for the meeting still hard to do but it is better than this silly method. Looks like the UK does not have the monopoly of daft rules  Still hopes it's a good meeting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not rooting for any team so as long as we get some good racing and no one gets hurt, that's all I really care about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandorum Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Â Yes have proper semi-finals and then the best team can win. I see the point of rewarding the league winners with the meeting on their home track. Rewards the fans as well. But to make it that only the first and second team really have a chance is a bit daft. Give everyone a fair chance. Just a shame for the 3rd and 4th team 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostwalker Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 I think it is more then enough rewarding to be allowed to pick opponents and if you want to start at home or away. Also by having a play off ( Semi finals + final with home/away meetings) you will reward the fans to all the teams as well as the teams since they can get more income. Now the home team is the only teams getting anything the others teams only get costs. C'mon red jumped the start. Good ol' Nicki. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandonbee48 Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 I'll always enjoy a meeting and there has been some good racing, but the fact that Holsted have to do more to lose it, than win it, leaves it all a bit flat. Last night's Swedish meetings were both nail biters with some wonderful racing, PLUS it's all still in the balance. Hope they take a look at this for next year because it has been very entertaining throughout the season. Plus the BEST stream in speedway. Anybody who beats Nicki around here- even a retuning and not yet up to total match fitness Nicki, deserves credit. Well done Bogdanovs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandonbee48 Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Have to say I think that is a ridiculous exclusion. Ref got it the wrong way round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandorum Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 This meeting is dragging a bit  What time yesterday did it start?  Most cricket matches are shorter  Maxim has been impressive 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandonbee48 Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 I don't think it would be a bad idea if we all sent Kanal a "thank you" for the coverage to encourage them to carry it again next season. Wednesdays wouldn't be the same without my "pigeon" ad for NordicBet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandonbee48 Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014  Blame Nicki. It's always Nicki to blame even if it's Tommy Pedersen who fell off. This meeting is dragging a bit  What time yesterday did it start?  Most cricket matches are shorter  Maxim has been impressive What happens when the TV company allocate 3 and a half hours for coverage. Races expand to fill space available. "Speedway coverage will resume following the midnight epilogue" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
