Edinburgh vs Leicester - Championship play-offs semi final first leg

Recommended Posts

Doubt the lions will be as bad as that on Friday but hopefully they will be. Need the likes of lasse and paco to be beating their opposite numbers and the reserves to try keep clegg quiet. Then we’re in with a right good chance.

If it follows what happened away against Scunthorpe and Plymouth early in the season then expect a better display from Leicester. Have you seen Steve Shovlars comment on the Poole v Leicester thread?

As in him thinking Dickson told them not to take any risks when they were 10 down?

Yes!

But that just his opinion. Doesn't mean it actually happened! ;) Though it makes sense in a way. Has Dickson reacted to the result publically yet?

Teams should take more care of their riders!

Don't help when you have Lawson fencing opposition riders most weeks, especially Danes!

Lot of talk about the Thompsons and possibility of splitting them up. 

I don't think either has kicked on quite as many expected. 

I do wonder if splitting teams would help them find their own levels and identities and levels and kick the Danjoe image

It can't have been easy for their parents with double the costs so made sense to reduce the travel costs and other costs. 

I think both can still reach significantly higher levels but time waits for no one and this winter might be time to split and stand on their own 2 feet.

At least Poole don't have Danes fencing/blocking their own guest team mates eg Flint!! Or failing to turn up after 'aggravating his injury' no doubt whilst doing commentary for Danish TV!!!? Still at least it saved Plymouth the air fares!!!

Suck it up Buttercup!

I don't like play-offs & think table toppers should be crowned champions. However the team that wins the play-offs technically "deserves" to be Champions!

I tend to disagree.

Winning 2 or 3 cup ties at the end of a season is nowhere near enough to ensure 'deserving' Champion status.

And Monarchs definitely do not deserve to call themselves Champions in 2022. Only Leicester have earned that particular accolade.
