idh 209 Posted September 11, 2016 (edited) from Edinburgh site The Cases Rebels were, initially, unsure about coming to Scotland on Friday as they will be without some of their riders due to an Elite League fixture at Lakeside but their team manager, Garry May, is now convinced that he can put together a team to do them proud. Initial thoughts that Glasgow would be the visitors were quickly dashed as they have riders missing that would not have been covered by a facility. Matches against Glasgow and Peterborough have still to be arranged. so could be 2 guest and RR Edited September 11, 2016 by idh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
northyorksbear 610 Posted September 11, 2016 When they say doublig up I assume it is only one match with score counting for both ?? Are TRs allowed in Premier Shield? If not you could have a rider on a TR for the league match but not Shield and have two different scores ongoing!! Only in speedway 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
screm 8,052 Posted September 11, 2016 Certainly going to be a strange looking team that Somerset bring to Edinburgh, with Swindon at Lakeside they will be without Tungate, Wright and Grajzconek. Don`t know the fitness of Dan Bewley but Belle Vue Colts have a NL meeting at Coventry this Friday and as this is a re-arranged fixture will Coventry have first call on his services, should he be fit to ride.

If not you could have a rider on a TR for the league match but not Shield and have two different scores ongoing!! Only in speedway You are correct in your suspicion that no TRs are allowed in the Premier Shield - Art 18.13 A TACTICAL RIDE (TR) tide (NB. Not applicable in any PL two-legged aggregate tie). Therefore the scores in the meeting on 17 August at Somerset should read Premier Shield : Somerset 57 Edinburgh 32 Premier League : Somerset 57 Edinburgh 35 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheScotsman 2,482 Posted September 11, 2016 Think Dan Bewley will be out for the rest of the season spoke to him last night at worky and still feeling uneasy on his feet That sounds like a huge blow to the lad and to his teams.

Mr Blobby 2,658 Posted September 12, 2016 Why does a tinpot cup take priority over a league fixture vs the Panthers? Maybe because your side doesn't want to come up on Friday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
