Somerset Pairs 2019?

Recommended Posts

With the SGP being held in September next year will the pairs still take place the previous evening? Or, as it is so late and depending on the league structure how about replacing it with the PLRC?

Pairs swop with Sheffield? Have the riders champs at Somerset

Why take it from a well supported Sheffield ?

Without the Cardiff GP it makes no sense to take anything from the Championship to Somerset. Miles away from any Championship club, surely it would be better served somewhere more convenient for Championship fans.

There is absolutely no way that 'most teams will finish by end August' - this year or next!!

Ask them to provide more toilets, or is it because it's the pairs we should share? :rolleyes:

Sheffields last match Thursday 23rd August

 

That would be 4 weeks before the pairs and the PLRC would be nearly 3 weeks before the pairs, how many riders would have packed up for the season

Don't they have play-offs in the Championship then?  Riders are usually contracted to end October!!

Especially if there is one big league next year, or the current numbers in the Championship are maintained and have A and B fixtures.

not if you don't qualify, so that's only four teams, potentially, running in September

Um, and what about the Championship Shield and the Knockout Cup.  Plenty of speedway in September and October.
