But it does’t work like that. Top doesn’t meet 4th . Top team gets to choose who they want to race in the semi final. IF Leicester make it I think they will pick Leicester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess therefore that's why they simply had to change it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the truth of the matter is we're now a 5th place club with the loss of Morris's points ability at home, we may sneak into the pay offs but like you say unless those missing points are replaced we'll be straight out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been very supportive of Dickson this season and his ruthless team changes and his proactive winning mentality. The Morris situation was a real curve ball and required a quick response. Cannot criticise the Batchelor appointment at the time in view of alternative options. The recent double change ditching Bomber and bringing in Cook however is difficult to defend. There is a reason why Batch & Cook had yet to be offered a team place at this level before now and now Dickson knows why. Dickson is a winner and he is no doubt frantically looking at one final team change for the run in. It’s no good scraping into the play offs if you can’t even win at home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
