I wonder how many stay away from regular season matches seeing the as only qualifiers and turn out for the play offs? Could be counter productive. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DazS 465 Posted October 13, 2022 well for some reason im feeling excited about this meeting more than i have for a long time, ill be going and just wish i could stand on the back stright where we used to stand back in the good old days 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foreverblue 6,116 Posted October 13, 2022 I like the fact that the two Premiership play off meetings are in the same week, don't remember that happening before and the fact that the result is still in the balance which is a great thing too. Belle Vue messed up last year, they should have won, the blame cannot be put on Kurtz being injured. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You seem obsessed with blaming BV and Lemon for defeat when P'boro were the best team across the season and deserved to win the Play Offs. Belle Vue were simply beaten by the better (best) team. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SUPERACE 440 Posted October 13, 2022 Off to Sheffield hoping to end 29 years of pain. I still feel the Charles Wright crash will ultimately cost us the title, but here's hoping I'm wrong. Can the Aces have a leg of the final with no bad luck for just one meeting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shockster 411 Posted October 13, 2022 R/R for Wright. Is it only Zagar, Brennan and the reserves who can take his rides? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tinker 213 Posted October 13, 2022 Quite a lot of doubt on here from BV supporters. I'm confident they can do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Same here, they've definitely got enough to pull it off but really can't afford any bad luck in terms of breakdowns etc. I'm expecting a cracker of a meeting and hoping for the right outcome, hope I'm not disappointed. Good luck to all those travelling over the Pennines, I used to love that drive over Woodhead on many Thursday evenings, always a good track to visit and plenty of close racing, the pits were accessible and you could really see what was going on in there.

Call me wolfie 677 Posted October 13, 2022 (edited) Suspect it’s going to be Sheffields night tonight, I expect them to be level on aggregate by heat 10 at the latest. In 2016 we lost the 1st leg of the semi at Poole by 12 points, it was all square by heat 8 of the 2nd leg Edited October 13, 2022 by Call me wolfie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eric i 621 Posted October 13, 2022 This should be a belting meeting, nicely poised. Think Belle should win thanks to Ringer Lambet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
