Moranboys Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 apparently now, should we defeat glasgow following the second leg of the play-offs,then the first leg of the play off final will be this coming thursday in place of the redcar fixture as the stadium would not be available the following week so what happens to the k.o.c fixture against ipswich as this fixture is still in the fixture list.anyone shed any light?

Baldyman Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 As much as I would like to see ipswich win, I think too much damage will be done at Sheffield. Sheffield have rider's that will go higher wider and deeper to score points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 Of course we have to come through the 2nd leg at Glasgow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 I think this thread is questioning the KOCup semi in the fixture lists of both teams for Thursday 5th October for Sheffields home leg when the reason for holding the first leg of the final (subject to progress) on Thursday 28th is that the stadium is unavailable the week after. So is the cup date postponed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ndbendbeerhut Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Looks like cup been scrapped on 5th October. Also looks like Heeps will return this week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KN1 Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Thought they may have swapped the cup dates around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Thought they may have swapped the cup dates around.Would make sense.The only thing I can think of to prevent this is if stock cars are running Saturday 7th. Foxhall restrictions include (I think) having no more than 2 events in a 8 day period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KN1 Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 And I suppose it beats having same team back on consecutive weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackadder Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 From the Sheffield web site:- Josh Grajczonek is battered and bruised after a nasty spill in Scotland and is desperate to ride – but club chiefs will make an early check with him on the day. Josh Bates was in a horror crash and early fears were of a neck injury – but after a trip to hospital it was confirmed nothing is broken and, like Grajczonek, he wants to ride. Hopes are also high for Lasse Bjerre to race after his spill. Co-promoter Damien Bates said: “It was a nightmare to be honest and it hardly felt like we’d won through to a Grand Final. “Thankfully there is no serious damage but with time short ahead of the first leg at Owlerton we need riders who are 100% fit. We will know more in the morning.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CookieIpswich Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Advantage witches depending how fit heeps is, even with battered up riders Sheffield should win by 10-12 which leaves it all to play for on Saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fromafar Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Isn't it strange the hell of a rush and agreement to run fixtures now when all season long it can't be done,pathetic.The season doesn't end till last day in October!!!! Just a load of meaningless fixtures left for clubs.Self interest rules again IMO. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlieboy Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 I know this is the cup thread but I think tomorrows play off final could be close.With last nights injuries plus Todd is struggling with his hand I think Ipswich are now the favourites.The cup matches could be a revenge mission for either side.Good luck to the Tigers lets give it a big performance.

spanner47 Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Biggest meeting for both clubs, but we're just talking about it in a couple of other threads. Come on you Witches, try to keep it close so we can have a good night Saturday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Think this could have more swings and roundabouts than a travelling fair!! Sheffield still favourites although the 3 fallers at Glasgow perhaps puts some fitness doubt into the mix. How much is mind games to take the pressure off only they will know. Would hope the Witches can stay within 14 which would be the max I would want to chase. Under 10 would be a fantastic result. Good luck fellas - enjoy it Up the Witches 👍 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graz gp Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 If the tigers get a 15 point lead, i would hope we could defend that at Ipswich But if all our guy's are fit i think we could finish the tie here at Sheffield. The weather is great. So the track should be spot on and we should have a good crowd in tonight. I am really looking forward to the meeting. So come on you Tigers.
