Ah, but this only happens if no leg of the final gets completed by Nov 1st! ;) Though I'd be interested to know what the actual rule is! 

It's Ippo then ;). Rules.... What are they in Speedway :blink:

Looking forward to watching some speedway tonight, at last. Hoping to see some good racing with all riders keeping fit for the return.

As for a score.. TBH i'm not sure. Wolves will need 10+ I think. Not sure they will get that tonight though.

Alphabetical order, coin toss, unwritten  rule to be implemented? Think no one will care by then anyway.

Just looked at the weather under Met Office Forecast. Does look like a chance of a shower or two. Any damp weather does worry me regarding Batchelor, but if Swindon can keep Wolves from leading by more than 10, I reckon that could be ok. 

Certainly would set up a fantastic finale. 

Hopefully Auntie Doris’s “ Tangerine dream” will come true!

Even if there is a threat of rain later we will undoubtedly see the usual undue delays at the starting gate, false starts and anything to delay the proceedings. There is no reason why this match could not be done and dusted if organised efficiently when one considers there is no more than 20 minutes at the very most of actual racing. Riders could be out as soon as the previous riders return to the pit gates except when there is track grading or when a rider has 2 consecutive rides. Any false riders should return to the gates within 1 minute ready for a restart, bikes should be fuelled accordingly to allow for this. If they mess about with any rain forecast they will stand no chance of getting this meeting off the ground.
