Premier Shield

[TheScotsman 2,483]

How does this work?

 

Do Monarchs race themselves?

 

Or against the KO runners up?

 

Or the League Cup runners up?

 

 

[Fenway Bleachers 2,665]

no we combine it with the spring trophy and race the weegies again....

[TheScotsman 2,483]

Sounds a goer.

 

We've all got fed up with the springy thing so a different trophy to win would be SO exciting!!

Smug git

 

I would imagine it would be Somerset.

 

All the best

Moi - smug?!!

 

 

Why Somerset in particular?

(Serious question.)

 

Why were Newcy in it this year?

[BRITISHSPEEDPOWER 58]

Should race Poole

[Dekker 239]

Ippo as KOC is deemed the 2nd event in priority.

I imagine 'lucy' is working on the assumption that the same rules will apply in 2015 as 2014.

 

Newcastle were in it this year as 2013 winners - so it is reasonable to guess that Somerset will face the Monarchs next year as the 2014 winners.

_{Then lets have a 4TT Rebels weds, Ippo thurs Monarchs Fri and the weegies on the Sunday}

 

_{Sounds like a proper tourney??}

I thought Newcastle were in it as League Cup winners because Somerset did the double in 2013. If thats right I`m still not sure who it will be because Edinburgh won the League Cup as well, maybe Somerset because they won the only other full team trophy this year.

Did I miss something Cliffeboy? Fours is only 4/7 of a team. You can hardly count the PL Shield as the competition wasn't open to all teams! Edited October 27, 2014 by Willowman

I counted the prem shield as a match involving 7 riders with a recognised trophy at the end, I take your point though that not all teams are involved.

Sorry, disagree. I think the Premier Shield is a good meeting to have right at the start of the season - a-la the Charity Shield in Football...

Logic would dictate it should be Somerset that is raced due to them being League runners up but I think Dekk may be right that it could be the Twitchers due to being the Runner's up in the KO Cup...
