foreverblue Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 You don't get play off teams until the play off qualification period is complete FFS. That would only effect the final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouch Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Could FFS. Did you even watch last years play offs????????????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daytripper Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Like most matches this season the reserves won the meeting for Poole, scoring 19 points to Lakesides 3 tonight. Â I am ignorant to the reserve rules, could anyone (SCB) explain why K Newman rides at 7?? Â Â The TM can put the reserves in any order he likes. I apologise as it's just play off rivals that the riders are not allowed to guest for thus meaning Max could ride for Lakeside. Â It's wrong as guests are a sad part of speedway even more in today's speedway than ever before. Â Either all clubs stop their riders or no clubs do it so it's fair to all. Â Â According to the programme Stefan Neilson had been booked by Lakeside but he of course was rapidly drafted into the GB u/21 team when Robert Lambert was pronounced unfit to ride .However he would have been riding otherwise. I cant see that Belle Vue have done anything wrong but not loaning out guests to play off rivals. You always need a promoters permission to book one of his riders as a guest.

ouch Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 is effected both the semis and final last year and the rules on guests are clear for this years play offs yet you said my post was rubbish. This is all basic stuff, hence my frustration at your lack of understanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is all basic stuff, hence my frustration at your lack of understanding. I said your initial post was rubbish because i thought you were talking about the current fight to get in the play offs. How can it effect the semis when the ruling is between the play off teams when they will all be riding on the same night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He guested for us but how can a rider guest for a play off team guest in the semi unless one of the semi's is postponed Edited August 22, 2015 by foreverblue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DunRobin Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 He guested for us but how can a rider guest for a play off team guest in the semi unless one of the semi's is postponed They can't this season what ever happens as the rule has been changed & you can't use a guest rider from any of the teams in the play-offs  Rule 17: 7 : 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my point. Normally that doesn't happen because the semis are on the same night but with all the rain (and "hole in track" gate) - that changed but has been rectified this year!

A ORLOV Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Trevor you may need to modify the title again and add Coventry in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) Trevor you may need to modify the title again and add Coventry in.Coventry are safe. If Belle Vue get the maximum points available at home and 4 away points at Wolves then Coventry only need 1point from their remaining fixtures. If Belle Vue drop any points then Coventry don't need any. Edited August 23, 2015 by mdmc82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

65Sarge Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 I agree with Orlov, it's a real shame but I think the top 4 will be strongly influenced by the weather, just like the title being too influenced by who has the best reserves rather than the best top 5? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DunRobin Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Unfortunately, it has now been altered immensely by Ward's devastating injury. I hope & pray for a full recovery. This may well impact on Swindon's chances as he has had an enormous influence on team spirit but that is now the least of my worries. Come on Darcy, let the Aussie spirit triumph, we are all praying for you. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverblue Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 If Kings Lynn win tomorrow and Swindon win on thursday as they should then Belle Vue have to win at Wolves to have any hope which they could do but maybe Wolves won't be such an easy touch at home.

We have been an easy touch for 2/3rds of the season so it will be the Aces to lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More will depend on if Swindon now use guests or sign a rider before the 28th for the remaining matches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should win at home with R/R you may not get anything at kings Lynn now but if you your remaining home matches you will be in the play offs.
