TheScotsman Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 So our team on the Friday maybe 2 ipswich riders an rr and 4 guests??? Looks like 2 total monarchs stich up. And why would louis agree to that date when his team would be like that?? If that's the case they can shove Thursday where the sun don't shine. Oh dear!! Yer we'll find out about 7pm this Thursday . Won't be able to hear it though I assume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CookieIpswich Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Aren't both meetings rearranged? If so it would make sense that whoever signed said rider first would get priority, so in that case Witches get Schlein, wolves keep Greaves who else are witches needing guests for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KN1 Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 We were told at Leicester yesterday that the Somerset match was being put back a week.(Kyle was due to guest for rebels) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharpenRake Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 And why are Glasgow racing on a Tuesday night!!!!!! Bound to be a huge money spinner - the kids that have watched us all year and no doubt there parents will now miss out. OK I don't expect us to win on the night or qualify for the final but it would have ben nice to race in front of bumper crowd! Just cos we own our stadium we get treated like mugs. Saturday would have been the obvious date but seems we are committed to a thrilling match at Workington which if you look at the Workington threads there is likely to be no one there. Glasgow fans wont be travelling having forked out for 3 matches in less than a week and with the riders championship and the play-offs still to pay for. We've been shafted in the ko cup with blank dates waiting months to see who our opponents will be and we still don't have any fixed dates. We'll now lose to Newcastle whereas earlier in the season when at full strength we should have won. Its just a total bells up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max the rebel Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Ipswich just tweeted me back saying Rory Schlein will ride at Edinburgh on 22ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badge Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Tbf like Danny, we always have had first dibs on Rory I think you will find, the only doubt would have been Nathan, but seems it's no problem after all!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigcatdiary Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 No way. Is this the start of sensible thinking in the sport? Seems to me sensible would have ensured Championship play offs didn't clash with Premiership KOC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spanner47 Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Why didn't ipswich have the second leg at home??? Their choice as finish second in table? Why didn't ipswich have the second leg at home??? Their choice as finish second in table? I originally questioned that, but as we ride Thursdays I suppose it would have been pointless waiting for another week, at least we've got the 2nd leg in the forgotten cup.

The Tuesday gives more time for our injured riders to recover and should be easier to get guests as no other matches that evening. Still a shame that the kids won't see us in the play offs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weeyin Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Doubt there will be many at the Glasgow match, a Tuesday night is a defo no go, why could they not have gone for the Saturday night 30th, some of us work shifts, looks like my season is over then :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fromafar Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Prediction time! I think Monarchs might sneak this one.Should be 2 cracking meetings though.(if no riders missing,which would make the whole thing a joke ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenway Bleachers Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 We have had a slick track most of the year......lets hope the heavens open and we get some mud, that will give us some real home advantage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had 5 blank fixtures in the April to June period and more during July & August where we should have been trying to pull fixtures forward. I dont believe that every team we could have approached would have said no. Now a meaningless meeting prevents us running a playoff on our usual race night and gaining all the revenue that comes with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
