Championship Play Offs


Recommended Posts

The cut off is the 17th i think , so presumably they can begin after that .

That's what I thought as well. (Sunday). However, according to this weeks Star Redcar are grateful to Sheffield for re-arranging their match for MONDAY 18th, so it can be played before the cutoff!!!! Stating Sheffield didn't have to do that as they've already qualified.

I think the cut off is 18th, however everyone probably assumed that the last matches to be played would be on the Sunday (as no Monday tracks) so it has commonly been said that last day for matches was Sunday 17th - and then we get a match on 18th!!

 

this is my best guess at another very confusing scenario not taken from any official site etc.

Hmmmm.... don't Wolves ride on Friday at Somerset? So where will Masters and Riss ride? Also Schlein and Greaves for Witches?

 

We'll let them have Sedgy to guest for them . He's been riding for them for months now lowering his average so might as well continue !

I would assume both teams will be at full strength. With play offs being far more important than a standard EL meeting that just needs to be completed

It's a KOC semi-final.

 

Quote from Garry May on the Somerset website last week;

"we have finally gone ahead with Friday the 22nd, which means that we will at least get preference on any of our riders who might be required to ride in any potential SGB Championship play-off meeting which might be subsequently scheduled for that same night.”

Not surprised Sheffield picked us given our problems but even without our injury woes i think Sheffield would still have been too strong for us ,and for the second season running i think the other tigers will knock us out at the semi-final stage.

 

But you just never know unlikely but possible.

Are Wolves really going to release 4 of their riders for the meeting at Somerset. It doesn't matter to Somerset as only Cam from the two teams rides for them and he is currently injured. If Edinburgh are at full strength then I hope Ipswich will be or it will be a total farce. Would be nice to get some clarification from the Witches camp what the line up at Edinburgh will be.
