Can you imagine England playing in the football World Cup final at Wembley while there's an FA Cup semi final going on at Villa Park, I think not... only in Speedway! Smh

Great win for the Pirates. Fantastic meeting with both sides contributing to the entertainment.

48-42 win is a tad close for comfort but I'm confident the Pirates will do the bizzo!

C'mon the Pirates! :t:

The SON isn't decided until Sunday.   So Saturday is really like the football equivalent of England playing in a World Cup Semi-final at Wembley, while there's a semi-final of the Papa John's Trophy going on at Prenton Park, Tranmere.

Finely balanced. Definitely going to the second leg.

 

Oh wait a minute I've got tickets and hotel booked for Manchester.

I personally don’t think 6 points is enough of a lead to progress. Such a shame we put ourselves in such a position by choosing Leicester. Was always too much of a risk.

Oh well we will have to wait and see. Not the end of the world if we bomb out and I have enjoyed visiting different tracks this year. Certainly we have the best team this year but all it takes is to under perform in one meeting for the season to be over. 

Just nice to be able to attend and watch live racing after the last 18 months of Covid.

Far from the last meeting. KO Cup, Bjarne’s Farewell.

So, Shoveller, are you against the play-off system?

But surely Douglas would have been more effective at 3 and taking points off their heat leader rather than potentially taking points off Morris?
