The rule was for teams who are actively in the playoffs. So riders from BV and Somerset should now be available. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terry 1,319 Posted October 7, 2018 I don't know why anybody cares about this play-off nonsense anyway. The last real league champions were Oxford 17 years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes it’s bloody ridiculous but it is so because the rule book doesn’t prevent it. Lynn can’t be blamed for going down this road as they are in a desperate situation, and yes Poole would have done exactly the same whatever the hot air is coming out of Dorset. Couldn't agree with you more.And if Ford thought it would help Poole more to win the P/Offs he would most certainly do it.He may have even tried even if it wasn't within the rules.

That’s the problem with having only 7 teams in the league and it is unfair for Poole to get the best pick because their rider was injured first (IMHO) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisa-colette 6,024 Posted October 7, 2018 So rule 18.2.4 is just for the ko cup? Fans on Twitter and Facebook seem to think it applies to the playoffs as well..? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZagarRacing 117 Posted October 7, 2018 Why don’t Poole just use Jack Smith over both legs. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted October 7, 2018 Matt Ford is unable to appeal this is not covered in the rulebook. So basically the final has officially become a complete and utter farce. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
