Yes, the Lions have lost twice at home this season, as have the mighty Ipswich. Janowski is probably the best choice from riders available to replace Morris, but he isn’t the rider he was, which is why his average fits to cover Morris. Yes, anything can happen in the playoffs, but the Lions will be bitterly disappointed if they do not progress after Thursday’s Houdini act in Sheffield. Really hoping for a Lions v Witches final but if the Lions don’t get over the line, I will not have a problem with Ipswich taking the honours (despite what some people might think 😉).

Nothing against them. Could have spent a couple of hours juggling the teams to make them more equal but tried to pick riders that had some association with the team. The point I was trying to show is just  how watered down the teams would be. I'll ask again , how much would you pay to watch two teams at this level? And following on how much per point would riders expect. Can't see this ending well...but ending quickly!

Unless fans stop attending play off meetings, then they will stay.  Don't think a Glasgow fan has anything against Glasgow!! Think they were just giving a rough guideline on how it could be, rather than exact? 

I think it's an illustration rather than an expectation of actual teams 

I’m really not sure which of the two it is, and I wish now I’d asked. But was told by the Hat that there isn’t going to be one league, was never going to be one league, and that at least one Championship club would get more of a help via TV money to be competitive in a move up. Some interesting changes i.e rules/regulations, team building rules etc incoming also.

Let’s not forget Leicester have been beaten here by Birmingham of all teams! Also lost against Ipswich here more unsurprisingly, so they can throw in a ropey home performance now and again. Janowski a good guest for Morris too. Some strange things can happen in play offs.
