Hackett Posted August 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 EASTBOURNE FIXTURE UPDATE The upcoming fixture on Friday 27th August will now be the rescheduled Championship match against Poole Pirates, allowing Eastbourne Eagles time to resolve their current difficulties. From the Edinburgh Monarchs website .... those who have the Northern Tour hotels booked - the 1st leg is definately off the schdule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can the away wages be paid with no income. Fingers crossed for a lottery winner, with a few quid to spare! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good co-operation between the clubs. Edited August 19, 2021 by Skidder1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly Like the hedgehog said climbing off the scrubbing brush... Anyone can make a mistake... To be fair mind how often will it happen seeing us on a Saturday and then Berwick on a Sunday at the same venue over the same weekend... After Arnie put that it took about 10 minutes for the penny to drop and I checked the fixtures on the BSPL site and realised I had dropped a Bolo... Never mind I now have the right end of the stick... But if I'm totally honest I even had the wrong team because it's bloody Kent who are up this Saturday at Berwick then on the Sunday at Brough... Big tea and an hour's kip and I'm all over the spot... Regards THJ 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old bob at herne bay Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 THJ Yup 2 home fixtures in 2 days sounds daft to me too. Recipe for reduced attendances. However, the EB website fixture list does say that Berwick on the Sunday is provisional. EB sandwiching fixtures between SGP weekends ….I always thought they would run on the Sunday pm when they clashed with the SGP? Would be very sad if they didn’t manage their 90th year celebration meeting , as that was one I would attend . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Home and Away 20 times each means 40 matches.. Plus a two leg semi and play off final is a total of 44.. Plenty of rides for the lads...

Glasgow Rangers vs Edinburgh Celtics We should hold a whip round for the Edinburgh fans, like when a rider blows and engine, to pay for their wasted hotel bills Edited August 20, 2021 by iainb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
