Ko Cup Draw


Recommended Posts

Somerset web site confirms no Lindgren in the second leg of the semi. Plus prospects of more guests and r/r

 

Why do they agree these dates???

 

When do Lindgren / Masters / Doyle / Fricke etc head off to Melbourne??? Do we have the prospect of a Cup Final full of guests and r/r as well?

And to top it all off this from the OS. No mention of 'I won't be at Somerset'. A bit of honesty with the fans wouldn't go amiss.

A joke of a statement from Somerset. Shouldn't they be doing all they can to ensure that GP riders like Lindgren are available? Surely it would boost the attendance. They seemed to want us to get on with it and use a 4 pointer instead - hardly seems fair!

Not hard to see why the number of Guests and R/R's has been such a farce this year. Fixed race nights can't come sooner.

Championship playoff semi final 2nd leg between Edinburgh and Ipswich takes place on Friday September 22nd potentially involving Mark Riss, Sam Masters, Rory Schlein and Nathan Greaves.

the dates being used have been in the calender as reserved for play off semi final since the start of the season.

Thats why it has priority.

What are the hell are Edinburgh and Ipswich playing at? Farcical scheduling.

 

Championship ties shouldn't be allowed to take preference over any higher division competition either.

Why the hell did the 1st Division decide to have a KO cup this season? They haven't had one for the past few seasons, the 2nd Division supporters have been moaning for years about having the final earlier in the season, the 1st Division clubs must have realised this was going to happen. But this is Speedway so as usual nobody does anything about anything and every season ends up in a mess.

The sport need a fixture coordinator with total power to force teams to ride, until this happens this crap will continue.

So build a team of assets and then a team with no money left, after they spent it on a gp superstar and a polish has been, comes along and says 'I'll have that one, that one and that one' and you expect the magpie team to have first use when there's a fixture clash?

 

I wonder if wolves will bother with the temporary not so grandstand again given that they went to all that expense for last year's cup final and didn't even fill it, ha ha!

 

No wonder Adams is moaning about crap support.

No idea where the crap support comes I heard their last meeting was full and fans were being turned away.

Don't you ever get bored of trolling? It's childish.

The KO Cup is in this mess because it took Wolves & Kings Lynn so long to ride their quarter final when all the other teams did it at the start of the year. Then so long for the semi's to be arranged. Semi's should have been done in August at latest
