It is clearly jockeying from the fans perspective or else there wouldn't have been hundreds of pages on the vs Plymouth, vs Glasgow and now vs Leicester threads going on about the topic.

If the Lions have "agreed" to let Poole run the 2nd leg then sadly I am inclined to agree with you that they don't give as much of a toss as the fans or as they should.

Obviously the fans would like the second leg but we have no say in whether that happens or not and tomorrows fixture hasn't been postponed yet.

The BSPL have basically been hemmed in by a wet spell of weather forecast for most parts for the next 10 days. 

Leicester and Poole have enjoyed extra Fixtures to get to the final so a play off benefit. 

If it's clear both Legs can't be completed in reasonable conditions for riders and supporters then the solution is simple. 

Award the League Title to the League winners and the Runners Up medals to the League Runners up. 

It's frankly incredible if that caveat isn't already clearly identified in the BSPL and SCB regulations.

Einstein was a scientist not a weather man , anyway Michael Fish said it's going to rain and it's wet :rofl:

Einstein was a theoretical physicist, a bit harsh to just label him a 'scientist'. Especially as Michael Fish is a meteorologist, therefore also a 'scientist'.

The forcast is piss poor tomorrow, and its been raining best part of this morning today. If we can get it on tomorrow  then we will
But the forcast does not look very encouraging.

It will be interesting to see if the Poole riders are as keen to ride on a wet track as they were at Glasgow! Will Richard Lawson be waving his finger at the ref while demanding to be allowed to ride.

Oh i think he will as will all the Poole riders, not sure the Poole riders regarded the track as wet though and they certainly seemed to be of the opinion it was raceable.

Much more rain like we are currently having here in Leicester & Saturday will be in severe doubt IMO.

No doubt the track will be flooded at this time & with rain not due to cease until early Saturday morning I fear it might be soaked in too deep to do anything to make it raceable. 

The forecast is good for Leicester on Saturday so hopefully that will give them enough time to sort the track out.

That depends if it can go past heat 10 or not

You should watch the interview as they ask him about what happened at Glasgow.
