I’d imagine they’d do 1 home meeting from all 6 clubs if they can. Easier said than done for the Friday ones.

All 6 teams have raced on alternative race night of which some are doing in the play offs.

Mr Godfrey will make sure only one team can ride on a Friday nite :rolleyes:

YAWN! YAWN! ... this is getting a bit old now(2018) ........ & not seen since as teams are now adhering to racing on alternative nights.

As Daz has said, BSN are covering 6 playoff meetings plus both legs of the final. So one of the meetings they are not covering is on Wednesday. Poole have a very good in house streaming service so hopefully they are at Oxford, who are yet to announce who they are riding against. That way fans will be able to chose which meeting they want to watch. (Or both)

They are showing Poole Vs Scunny by the look of it.

That’s quite disappointing; you would expect Oxford versus Glasgow to be a closer match, plus it appears that Scunthorpe are making more live appearances on BSN than any other club in the play-offs.

@jduffill are you able to shed any light?

Because Poole Vs Edinburgh is going to be a mauling. And if having one home match per team in play offs then Poole scunny has most chance of being competitive..could be wrong but think highest scoring away team at Poole this season

Depends if you are including BSN series or not. If you are Redcar scored 42 in that but only 38 more recently in the league. Scunny scored 41.

PIRATES to beat the Scorpions 55-35 this time around avin won earlier 49-41.

Pirates are now more of a unit since June & have had a lot of progression amongst the riders.

Joe Thompson, I believe, adds extra strength at reserve and is also scoring more heavily in the NDL since his switch to the Pirates Not to dismiss the Scorpions reserves strength in Kemp & Ablitt returning to WINborne Road but not returning to haunt us!

Business end of the season adds another dimension to our armoury as we fire on more than all cylinders!

Watch out watch out there be a Pirate about!

C'mon the Boyzzzzz :t:

Not sure Zach Cook is 100% fit with his arm injury, so could be a bit less one-sided.

Are the use of guests restricted to riders from teams who didn't make the play-offs this year. 

Redcar losing Wright must be a blow as there are effectively only 3 riders (Howarth, Schlein and Sedgman) capable of covering him or could Redcar pull in someone like Ellis or Becker from the PL?

If their converted average fits then don't see why they couldn't be used.

I'm sure managers and Promoters are going through the rule book with a fine tooth comb

Ellis - no because he is not in a named seven

Becker - no because his average is too high

But in theory yes e.g. Blodorn for Craig Cook would fit.

Oh that isn't good, Kyle Newman did well last night I thought, I expect Sheffield to use him again at Ipswich.

Might be worth doing RR for Zach if he is struggling. @noaksey said he was off the pace last night and I think at home Ben, Anders, Kyle and Joe would be okay to cover.

Another anomoly of British Speedway. 

In the PL Charles Wright's average is higher than Luke Becker's yey Becker can't replace Wright in the CL
