psycho3a 101 Posted September 11, 2015 Will it ? http://www.sheffieldspeedway.co/news.php?extend.1949 Won't it ? http://www.peterboroughpanthers.co/news.php?extend.2630.2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
proud panther 1,507 Posted September 11, 2015 Surely the 24th would be the best date, because we are already without Ulrich, & 2 guests plus RR isn't very appealing for either set of fans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 15 Posted September 11, 2015 (edited) There should be deadlines for play-off meetings. It's ok waiting until later but you have the farcical situation of Peterborough wanting meeting later due to rider riding in the U21s that but delays all later rounds and will see Edinburgh likely to have to run meeting without Masters and Sedgmen who will be in Australia for the GP - plus it'll be colder, darker and probably wetter. If this is Sheffields reserved date for the play-offs then Peterborough should suck it up. Edited September 11, 2015 by SCB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blackadder 280 Posted September 11, 2015 Sheffield have already had 2 blank Thursdays; another one is just not on. Fixture is now showing on the BSPA list. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,725 Posted September 11, 2015 No way should we ride with half a team Withdraw then..... Surely the 24th would be the best date, because we are already without Ulrich, & 2 guests plus RR isn't very appealing for either set of fans. You signed both Grondal and Thomsen in full knowledge they were in the U21 and that these dates would be the reserved dates for the first play off matches - tough!! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spin king 1,934 Posted September 11, 2015 No way should we ride with half a team Sorry although I have a degree of sympathy for Peterborough, the date is reserved for the Play Offs, so that should be when the match should be raced on the 17th. We cannot have teams dictating to us when a fixture should be raced because they don't have the riders available. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Charlieboy 417 Posted September 12, 2015 A few weeks ago we went to peterboro with 4 of our riders one of which was ill and shouldn't have rode,2 guests and r/r !!! We accepted the late fixture against our promotions wishes.No peterboro fans wanted that meeting putting back if I recall !!!!! This is the way speedway is at the moment so weve just got to get on with it.Weve had to do that all season.Cant see peterboro putting a poor team out anyway so cant see the problem. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigcatdiary 3,175 Posted September 12, 2015 Richard Hall is an Owlerton track specialist and Andersen made the PLRC Semi Final, would provide good cover for both riders. Of course that's assuming Peterborough will be granted facilities for their missing riders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LagutaRacingFan 1,948 Posted September 12, 2015 (edited) I would go for this side 1. Ricky Wells 2. Simon Lambert 3. Michael Palm Toft 4. Anton Rosen 5. Ben Barker 6. Richard Hall 7. Rafal Konopka Sheffield now firm favourites but If we manage to keep the deficit down to 10 then we could do it at EOES Edited September 12, 2015 by Morrissey Fan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
proud panther 1,507 Posted September 12, 2015 Got to use RR for one of the missing riders. As its on the BSPA website, it looks like it will be run on that date. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
