The Dog Posted November 16, 2022 Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 They'll probably decide that the wet October was a one-off and we'll carry on as usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No point in Tomlain buying the club to run at Championship level though as he would lose money. Nobody outside of the die hards would be splashing cash to watch watered down Championship product with journey men making up an engine room. No local derbies either.

If Peterborough are dropping down then and as stated theres 9 teams in the championship with 16 home 16 away league matches and 6 in premiership which team is not running ?

Sensible from a sporting point of view but not from a business point of view which is what the play offs are really about Better to finish 2/3 than top as a 50-50 chance of getting an extra 2 bumper crowd meetings No loss at all if knocked out as still get the 1 extra same as the table toppers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes no sense to drop down. No local derbies on bank Holidays, watered down product in the Championship that would see attendances take a hit. Basically no point in Tomlain buying the club just to throw away his own money and run at a big loss. Pretty sure we're in the Prem and the AGM statement is just being delayed so they can release it on SpeedwayStar day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted November 16, 2022 Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 Out side the box idea, is it worth while having a Play-Off score advantage? 1st +10 2nd +5 3rd +0 4th +0 The score advantage is only available for the away leg. Semi-Final 1, 1st (+10) vs 4th (+0) Semi-Final 2, 2nd.(+5) vs 3rd (+0) The score advantage then rolls over to the final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel Tolley at Birmingham doesn't seem to have any problems with throwing away his own money and running at a big loss.... Maybe it's a criteria of the BSPL nowadays...

PL - Some concerns raised about a specific issue needed to be solved re PL. CL totally different ,and its more change to plans, as will be seen when announcement is made. Word is that all sorted with CL but waiting to announce both tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could catch could catch some promoters out and affect their decision making. That could be "musical chairs" after their initial tea & biscuits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronScorpion Posted November 16, 2022 Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 Possibly, after all the monthly meetings at Rugby & the AGM is all about "dotting the i's & crossing the t's", a team(s) has been put together which other promoters are not happy about as they did not think that this scenario could happen hence extra time being required, all in the eyes of self precedence.

SteveLyric2 Posted November 16, 2022 Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 Maybe the 4 Prem clubs with decent race tracks are objecting to yet another that has problems with prep? Maybe its 'Lets all gang up on the Bates'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
