What's not to like.......? i know its a minority sport and hardly aybody has any interest in it ,but its to do with credibility we could have a team not in the premier league winning the premier league cup,could need 4 replacements a no1,a heat leader and 2 reserves perhaps which might have to change for every match,no offence gavan but i hope ipswich get knocked out then we could use doyle and sayfutdinov.Should just be called the invitation cup.why didnt they announce at the start of this sesaon that champioship winners would qualify? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least that was probably a "draw" in the Premiership. Anyone else think there was no draw in Championship KO & just made it regionalised?

Makes sense in a way, but isn't very credible 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't coincidence. Makes sense in a way, but isn't very credible As much as it isn’t credible it makes sense on a sport that often seems to be on the precipice financially. My team (Berwick) have drawn Redcar so more than likely I will attend both legs as will many other Bandits fans and Redcar fans vice versa which helps both promotions. For once I actually think common sense is prevailing within our sport’s decision makers. Edited 6 hours ago by Hamster00 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triple.H. Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Run the Poole vs Sheffield tie as the last one of the round, any guests reqd can then be chosen from the riders from the losing teams in the other three ties. Just needs the running of the first round of the KOC to become a priority Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
