Leicester still haven't raced the Quarter Final 2nd leg at Scunny yet! Not that they need to! Scunthorpe have had plenty of blank Fridays, so don't know what the 2nd leg hasn't been raced yet. Perhaps Scunthorpe know they will get knocked out by Leicester & won't make the play-offs, so are wanting to hold this meeting later on to make their season last longer? I can just picture it now though, lots of blank days during the season & finals still raced at the end of October! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eric i 619 Posted July 12, 2022 Didn't there used to be a Premier Trophy like this at the start of the season when it was the premier league so surely this should be called the Championship Trophy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leicester still haven't raced the Quarter Final 2nd leg at Scunny yet! Not that they need to! Leicester are waiting for a date from Scunthorpe . The blank dates Scunthorpe have had are due to rider availability . Also Mr Godfrey doesn’t want the same team there twice in quick succession. Leicester are at Scunthorpe in the Jubilee Trophy next Friday so I think it will be 26th August Edited July 13, 2022 by Lenny Lion 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A competition with the format of regional mini leagues followed by a final (and usually semi-finals) has been held in the second tier every year since 1997 with the exception of 2003, 2011,2017, 2020, 2021. The first three due to longer league programmes, the last two covid. The competition is on its sixth name: Knock-out Cup (despite most of the fixtures involving no-one being knocked out) National Trophy Premier Trophy League Cup Championship Shield and now Jubilee League 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
