Winners & Play Offs

And what about the relegation & promotion play off?

No idea when the Championship cut off is, but would guess that the relegation/promotion matches will be the week after the Prem play off finals.

Assuming Rye get 4th.

 

Swindon will choose BV and I think Swindon will win both legs.

 

Wolves will beat Rye House heavy enough at home to go through on aggregate.

 

Wolves will dominate Swindon at home and they will lose at Swindon but will win the title on aggregate.

I like that storyline. We'll see, lots of twists and turns to come yet.

Injuries, the KK factor (?), home advantage or otherwise, down right bloody minded effort. There is a way to go just yet.

And thank heavens it is so.

Come into the playoffs 20 points behind and win the lot. Sound familiar?

Clue Poole won't like it and I'm a Bees fan (present tense).

Well that's one cat out of the bag, Swindon won't be picking Wolves in the semis. Straight from Jason Doyle:

 

''“We need to get the best pick possible, we don’t really want to have to go to Wolves and try to race them in the semis.''

You have to beat the best teams to win the title so I don't think it matters who they pick..

True, but if you get knocked out in the semi the club misses a big payday for the final, so it is best to pick the easiest team in the semi. The question then is do Swindon pick Poole/Rhy or BV in the semi ?

Quite. Surely the easiest team is Poole at the moment ? That would leave Wolves with Belle Vue and I don't think we would make the final.

I wonder if Swindon would try moving the dog racing if they get to the final as they race on Wednesday evenings...

 

Failing that they would have to ride at home first..

No chance will the dogs move..

No chance will that happen.

It almost sounds as though Swindon are getting a bit jittery despite their terrific winning run and topping the league??!! lol

 

Me? I'll just be very pleased if Poole hang on to 4th even if Lahti does revert to the 1-5 from Monday!

It almost sounds like another fishing expedition!
