Sheffield V Leicester Prom./rel. Play Offs 1st & 2nd Legs


Recommended Posts

So Panthers get fined £40k for letting Jack Holder miss a meeting, Leicester get no fine for letting Pawel miss this meeting.

 

Would love to see this stand up in a court of law!

totally different circumstances surely? pawel is obviously not bothering to ride over here again this year and is withholding his services... holder was wanting to ride over here for the rest of the season (so couldn't withhold his services without a ban) so the promoter took the bung/bribe (from poland) and the punishment instead

With Kyle out now I think it will be tougher.Hes been our inspiration this season hope is injuries not too severe as it was a bad crash.Good luck to Sheffield tonight hope we win and nobody else gets injured.

 

he was limping in the bar after, banged his left knee

 

I would rather have him fit for Thursday / Friday than tonight

 

Just seen on BSPA web site that Kyle needs a weeks rest, so could miss Thursday / Friday as well

Relegation/promotion, what a load of rubbish, all Sheffield have to do is ask and they'll be welcomed to the top league with open arms. Lakeside coming from the National to the premiership makes a total mockery of these two meetings.

The Lakeside situation isnt a mockery. They were an established top flight team with a top flight licence which has been 'on ice' this year whilst certain matters were sorted.

They raced in the NL to maintain a prescence and are perfectly entitled to retake their place in the top flight.

 

Dont disagree that the promotion/relegation tie could be described as a mockery though.

Fair point regarding Lakeside, but if relegation/promotion is to work, and be taken seriously, you can`t have a team simply being air lifted from the bottom tier of speedway into the top league.

Leicester will beat Sheffield over two legs.

 

And yet people will still say that a Championship team is nearly as strong as a Premiership team.

Always will be nonsense.

The Lions just way too superior over the championships finest.

What a bore fest so far.

Will BT Sport opt out of showing the second leg? this is so very one sided and i must admit i did not expect it, I am sure Sheffield are better than this however the score is what it is and there always has been a sizable gap between the first and second divisions, I think even if Kings Lynn had finished bottom they would have enough over two legs to take on the best of the Championship teams, its down the order where it really shows.
