It was clear when Leicester got r/r after the clrc that they got the facility due to it. Edinburgh just don't seem to have been wanting to declare it reasons best known to them. Sad, like you say but I can't see Craig coming back now. That's 2 seasons in a row had this going on 

I can't see any team in the Championship wanting to employ him next season. I think he's burned one too many bridges now. He would just be a dark cloud hanging around disrupting any team's harmony. Shame really because he seems nice enough some of the time.

It will be huge disappointing if we don’t get the win tonight. 

But rumour has it that if Poole do finish top they will pick Oxford in their mini league rather than two teams right at the other end of the country. 

Literally no point finishing top if Oxford and Poole are going to pick each other. Although I do get it from a crowd point of view. Prob each others biggest crowds of the season. And agg win was only within 2 points.

I doubt Poole would choose not to face a very weak Monarchs side in a mini league if they got first pick.

Riders could miss out on 2 extra meetings though if they didn’t put out Oxford

Was thinking about it makes sense for Oxford or Poole to pick Edinburgh and Glasgow logistically if can have both away meetings on say Friday/ Saturday on a sort of northern tour. But you're relying on the autumnal Scottish weather I suppose

To put my answer into perspective, Exeter and Hull were still active when I last attended speedway regularly.

Now, spill the beans. Craig Cook and a photographer. The photographer leaked Cook’s nudes, so Cook had Mike Hunter force the photographer to listen to an interview with Kenny McKinna?

Or we could completely go for it and pick Glasgow as well! (If we finish top). What a group that would be! And makes the other group more competitive too. Be better for the neutral.

Your forgetting about Redcar they are not out of the equation for winning overall IMO

Winning the play offs or topping the league? Maybe to the first, no to the second!

I can’t see Oxford picking Poole or Poole picking Oxford as they look to be the strongest teams and would each have bumper crowds for the final. As it looks like a mini league, then top will pick Edinburgh/Birmingham plus Scunthorpe or Redcar. Probably Redcar as you know that should be an easier track to score well on.
