Whoever made these arrangements, and I don't care if it was Poole or Leicester, really should be asking themselves why the pay off finals were not held sooner. I was shocked when I saw that Poole were riding in the KO Cup on Wednesday the 12th and the Cubs were riding at BP on Saturday the 15th... Why?!?

So the one who insisted that Poole had to have choice when they raced Plymouth in the QF as Poole finished higher now changes his tune. Forum pillock Slovler. For factual reference. Leicester are League Champions, clear winners of the Championship League. They therefore carry priority to decide who has first pick in Play Off finals and are under no requirement to forgo that. If Poole hadn't put testomonial before League and Play Off this situation would not have occurred. If the Play Off cannot be completed Leicester are Champions based on League positions. Morally, ethically, pragmatically. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The track guy has already explained in detail the extraordinary lengths they've gone to in order to remove huge amounts of water from the drains. Locals have confirmed that it's rained pretty much every day for about 2 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
