Why on earth would that be? There is no problem at all with stadium availability, we run into November, simple as that, you guys set that precedent last year

Rider availability might be an issue.

Agree in has to be run at Leicester unless the track is unavailable.A lot of Aussie have their flight booked early Nov for obvious reasons.

I'm pretty sure the Leicester track is available 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year and as Shovvy suggests it'll have to be an NDL rider to guest :lol: or rearrange travel arrangements

Or just crown Leicester champions as we've been top of the league all year anyway so we've earnt it. I mean if it hadn't been waiting for Poole to get the first leg done we'd have been finished by now right? Maybe we should have insisted you ran your meeting elsewhere?

You would have been finished if you're leg hadn't been postponed, must be looking a bit iffy for Saturday with this rain, and by all accounts needing 2 dry days to sort it out, our recent match against Redcar when the track was under water was fixed within the hour, and the match went ahead

You fear those last three heats could cost Leicester. A lot depends on the state of the track Saturday, if its a wet mess all home advantage will be lost.

As for Howarth, if he is getting married then absolutely a guest should be allowed, this final should have been ridden weeks ago.

Ah, so that's the reason Howarth has been feeling unwell lately.

Either way whoever wins the play offs the lions will be champions in my mind. 

Leicester - league champions

Poole/Leicester - play off winners

Its always best to prepare for disappointments :-)

If the tie cannot be held by 31 October, because both Clubs have been unable to fulfil all fixtures it should revert to league tale

Champions are Leicester 

Runners Up are Glasgow. 

Just had to check - no this is still the forum not www.letsmakeourownrules.com :-)

Be exactly the same if it was the other way round. 

Don’t judge others by your own low standards.
