JamesB 107 Posted September 22, 2017 I didn't think that 10 points would be enough, but again great credit to the reserves. Newman and Campton also played their part. Great result. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavan 5,049 Posted September 22, 2017 Edinburgh threw that away our number one having a mare should have been comfortable for the Monarchs. Well done Rory stepping up and Kyle to. Get in there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bash 496 Posted September 22, 2017 We certainly like doing things the hard way. Lets hope that's Danny's poor meeting out of the way and he's back to all guns blazing for the final. Well done Rory and to the reserves on their contribution. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,695 Posted September 22, 2017 Need a lie down now but woooooo hooooo! Shame couldnt be there - reckon there mustve been a great atmosphere. Thats the sort of contest the sport needs. Close and hard fought and the result in doubt right to the end. Bring on the final 😀 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JanAndersen 821 Posted September 22, 2017 Credit to Ipswich; strong reserve pairing and having Schlein round Armadale is a real bonus. Heat 8 left a bit of a nasty taste - quite within his rights to shut off on the third bend but didn't think it was necessary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spanner47 336 Posted September 22, 2017 How long do we have to wait for the final? We haven't got a meeting this Thursday but Sheffield have arranged a pointless meeting with Redcar. I suppose it gives Cam a bit more time to get fit. I see the idiots that run the sport appear to have done away with the promotion thing, what a surprise!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I see the idiots that run the sport appear to have done away with the promotion thing, what a surprise!!Sat 30th is a reserved date in the fixture list at Foxhall and I think is pencilled in assuming Sheffield finish the job as they surely must. KOCup at Sheff on 5th and Foxhall on 12th. These could be be redesignated I suppose given the lack of progress in the other half of the draw. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bezza 20 Posted September 22, 2017 (edited) 1st leg confirmed as Foxhall this Saturday. I would have thought next Sunday 1st October for the return or worst case replace the Cup fixture 5th October but being the latter it would lose some momentum.... Apologies to Glasgow for making certain assumptions!! I think we are under a little pressure due to the promotion/relegation met tings 9th/11th Edited September 22, 2017 by Bezza Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't believe any Manager would have picked anybody else. 1st leg confirmed as Foxhall this Saturday.

Apologies to Glasgow for making certain assumptions!! I think we are under a little pressure due to the promotion/relegation met tings 9th/11th I assume you mean next Saturday, also according to another thread on this forum, the promotion thing is dead. Reckon there's a decent chance both us and Sheffield might go up, if they say top division to race Monday / Thursday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,695 Posted September 22, 2017 Of course its only right they cant announce dates until after the 2nd leg over the other semi however unlikely it us for Glasgow to turn it round but some of us need to plan ahead for days off or will miss out.....
