Hope so, but Scunny will need a different guest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scunny1 Posted July 15, 2023 Report Share Posted July 15, 2023 Rather concentrate on league fixtures and leave the fill in events as lower priority. Nobody (apart from the winners) remembers who won what cup, but most recall who won the league title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually completely disagree, that attitude has led to so many cup finals being held in terrible weather in October / November, so no wonder fans don't take them seriously? By getting the KOC out of the way first it shows it means something to the teams, so hopefully the fans will feel the same way too? Would be great for the BSN final to be completed by July & KOC early too! Plus clubs can advertise themselves as cup winners etc for the rest of the season, usually of you win in your last match - it's forgotten about by next March / April! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted July 16, 2023 Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 I'd be going Redcar leg on Fri 21st, Scunny leg on Sat 22nd. Get the Cup final raced against Poole before October! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't intentionally switch the legs round, only picked those dates because Scunny are at Redcar on the Friday already & didn't know of the stockcar event on the Saturday. I see zero reason whatsoever to suggest Redcar should host the second leg, just do whatever fits in with the fixtures best, there's no advantage either way imo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
