lisa-colette 6,046 Posted November 7, 2022 12 minutes ago, Jaizer said: It's still a nonsense Lisa, you must agree. It's nothing more than a preseason inter league challenge that used to happen few years ago. I'm assuming Poole will be allowed to strengthen to the prem points limit based on their teams converted prem averages? I guess so but who knows! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beirao 203 Posted November 7, 2022 The simpler solution would be for both teams to track the seven they would have done had the final been raced. The simplest solution is just to forget aabout biut the whole thing! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He would ride for Poole as he's a Poole asset. Of course depending on the 1-7s Poole may not need to strengthen?! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iainb 5,089 Posted November 7, 2022 There's no reason for Glasgow not to be in this now... and it can be held at the neutral venue, Sheffield, as originally planned. Anything else, like others have said, is just an inter league friendly. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anything else, like others have said, is just an inter league friendly. It was Glasgow's choice to withdraw so tough!! Plus I'm not sure Leicester would want to ride on a neutral track again? It'll be a nice pre-season challenge to brush the cobwebs away before the 32 league fixtures kick in (Oops sorry that only applies to Poole!)

scoobydoo 2,259 Posted November 8, 2022 (edited) Both teams have 7 riders each who will it seems be riding in the UK in 2023 so why not just run the 2 meetings next season with the same riders in each team that rode in the 2nd leg of the final .

HGould 2,213 Posted November 8, 2022 (edited) Irrespective of the Clubs involved a complete and utter farce and more proof that none of the current sports top table are fit for purpose. Three Clubs qualified At least one of the three (the one without BSPL Director involved) at least had the balls and sense to say that they couldn't stage their Fixture. Ford and Bates now cobble together this shambolic joke and Godfrey and Louis are complicit in it. The sport is a laughing stock a FH complete joke.
