Who Will Make The Playoffs ?


Recommended Posts

Southern Section fixtures:

 

Thursday 25th Sept, Ipswich v Scunthorpe

Friday 26th Sept, Scunthorpe v Somerset

Wednesday 1st Oct, Somerset v Scunthorpe

Thursday 2nd Oct, Ipswich v Somerset

Friday 10th Oct, Somerset v Ipswich

 

TBA Scunthorpe v Ipswich

 

Over 2 weeks until our next home meeting then, on dates which I can't go to, effectively ending my season as of last Friday which is a shame.

 

As someone previously said I can see this group being thrashings handed out by the home team in nearly every match.

why is there the best part of two weeks from the cut off date to the first fixture in the group??

 

A blank week with the weather set fine.

 

Then watch everyone panic to get it all completed when there is a bit of rain in a fortnights time!

 

Crazy IMO.

Can always dream at Berwick, but they stuff us every time we visit Armadump

 

But you don't need to beat them on aggregate - just get the three points off them at your place, and then whatever Edinburgh do against Workington, you just need to beat it e.g. if Edinburgh take six points off Worky, then you take seven.

 

All the best

That's what should happen in the southern group. One of the teams should be made to go to Ipswich Thursday as these playoffs have been know when they are taking place at the start of the season. With this group not now finishing until the 10th October, if there are any rain offs the final will be pushed to the final week of the season again.

What about your "fallacy" if the Teams have the same points? what will happen.

surely if the records are identical on match points and race points then highest league position should dictate the qualifier.

Are Somerset hoping to get Brady Kurtz fit for the end of the season? The later the final the more chance of him getting fit.

What I wan't to know is why the Premier League has this absolute rubbish play off formula (twelve matches at group stage and one group was effectively killed stone dead when Ippo I think lost the first match at home last year) when you could have the Swedish formula. 6v3, 4v5 winners versus 1 & 2 in the semi, much more on each match and less to arrange as only eight matches before the final.
