RS50 359 Posted October 24, 2022 What are the current options for this? Stage the final leg at at Sheffield in November? Stage the final leg at a neutral track sometime? Award it to Sheffield as they are currently leading, and likely to win? Award it to Kings Lynn, for Sheffield being unable to complete the fixture? Quietly forget about it, and hope nobody notices? Announce it will not be completed and take the criticism? Finish it next year? Any other ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought the same, and I having been expecting that been the date set for the 2nd leg. If that is not the case and the 2nd leg is not ridden then I think that the Kings Lynn should be awarded the trophy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But think you have to pay more in insurance to do that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lol. Not sure if Poole are planning to run jubilee meeting against Leicester or not? Nothing being announced yet. Was supposed to be today before playoff final was rained off last week. Edit - is there a reason Sheffield can't run on Thurs 3rd? Is there more Nov meetings to be run lol. Edited October 26, 2022 by lisa-colette Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scoobydoo 2,254 Posted October 26, 2022 (edited) 3 Aussies in the 2 teams maybe 1 or more have flights home booked Sheffield or Lynn have an end of season party booked before Aussies fly home If the season officially ends on Oct 31st then its a free for all when they run Premiership trophy takes preference over a championship trophy that has become a complete farce Edited October 26, 2022 by scoobydoo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
