Edinburgh V Workington (play-offs) - Friday, October 19th (7.30pm)

[lucifer sam 3,953]

Well, no-one else has started this thread, so I will.

 

The deciding match in Group 1 of the play-offs. Edinburgh cannot qualify (despite a very spirited display at Workington on Saturday), but will want to finish their season with a win, while Workington are after a rare away win at Armadale.

 

It's fairly straightforward, but these are the scenarios:

 

Home win for Edinburgh – Scunthorpe Scorpions progress to play-off final.

Draw – Scorpions still progress to final, on race points difference, thanks to the big home wins against Edinburgh and Workington.

Away win for Workington – Comets progress to final.

 

According to the Edinburgh website, both Rene Bach and Richard Lawson will line-up for Workington despite their knocks last weekend.

 

All the best

Think Richard Lawson is doubtful for this weekend, whatever happens may the best team move onto the finals

So its Workington V Somerset then

Looking at the forecast this morning on the TV the weather may have its part to play in the meeting,can they run at Armadale any evening or is there an off race night??

Well if it is Saturday then Worky won't be able to contest this since we are programmed to beat sorry meet Newcastle in the 2nd leg of the KOC. This weather has a lot to answer too but let's face it riding in October was never going to any different.

Edinburgh website says: "both Richard Lawson and Rene Bach say they are fit to ride after injuries last weekend."

 

All the best

Monachs could put abu hamza at 7 and comets will still struggle at armadale

Tommy Fenwick can hardly hold down a Saints reserve spot, he is not PL standard by a long way, surely much stronger option available?

My thought's exactly as IMO this match will be won at reserve, let's hope none of the main Edinburgh team get injured .
