Happy Hunter Posted September 13, 2022 Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 Now that the Plymouth v Poole leg of the play off quarter final has been postponed to the 20th September and we can't be sure who the other two semi finalists will be until after then, what are the odds on the second leg of the KOC semi final against Poole taking place at Poole in the 21st? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neila Posted September 13, 2022 Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 Same happens every year, but just seems to get worse every year. It's about time a cut off point meant a cut off point. Only 10 teams in league 9 home matches plus Cup to fit in over 5 months and it still fails. In 2018 when Workington won the lot we were still trying to run a cup and league double header on the 32st October Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Lion Posted September 16, 2022 Report Share Posted September 16, 2022 (edited) So it appears Leicester can’t even organise an end of season party without getting it wrong !!!!! It’s just been announced its being held on Friday 14th October let’s be honest it’s highly likely there will be an important match the next day. So I don’t envisage many riders wanting to attend the party when they can’t relax & have a drink because they have a big match the next day where they could be alcohol tested. The club have had a whole year to organise the party & plan it for when they know its very likely there will be a match the next day clueless !!!!! The words pi55 up & brewery come to mind.

So the likes of Nick and Dan the Man could well be riding here as well as in Poland. For sure, Saturday could be a problem.
