No. Prem playoffs on Eurosport/Discovery. BSN announced the KOC final was their last showing of the Prem this season.

Who else are you thinking of?

Last winter the rumour was 38 at one point and they didn't do that, so hopefully they won't do 36. Taking 4 points off is a lot! But assuming it is to phase out doubling up for top end riders. Doubling up should just be for riders transitioning from Champ to Prem to see if they are ready for it, especially if they are widening the gap.

I vaguely remember that. Wasn't that year the last time we had one big league of 20?

You just change the rules to stop so many doubling up. When first started it was just for British U25s.

Pretty sure Eurosport said it before that a few years ago. But not sure if they are of the same opinion any more. If Brum are riding on a Monday, I wonder if there will be some restrictions on doubling up. Like your average has to be under 7.5. So people like Dougie, Masters, Harris etc can't do it.

So 1 or 2 clubs will need to move up. Sure Eurosport said there needs to be at least 6 for them to cover it a few years ago. Unless they have changed their minds. So who is going to draw the shortest straw?

Better hope they have a big enough trophy to fit all that on it!

How likely is this one league thing? Or are they going to stick with Prem and Champ, going with the rumour Birmingham are moving up, so would make Prem a 6 and Champ an 8 (assuming Edinburgh confirm).

I would assume he is doing either Sweden or Denmark instead of Championship.

No but Edinburgh have their own stream.

Tbf didn't Batch get 9 at Poole for Brum, so prob do better than r/r?

Prob because of the cut off. I don't mind cut off being extended as it has happened a million times before. Why did Oxford ask Redcar to ride with half a team when they were not prepared to do the same themselves? Both teams should have been treated the same and they haven't imo.

Don't see why we can't as long as the Tuesday meeting gets a result. But we may not want to as surely Poole would want to second leg, so potentially be at Oxford next Weds or Glasgow next Friday and ride following Weds at home? Although sometimes I prefer having the first leg at home as long as you build up a decent lead the other team is playing catch up.

https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/23815914.police-arrest-man-car-stopped-cemetery-junction/ Think this what they were talking about. Wimborne Road in Bournemouth! Tbf there are a lot of Wimborne Road's around this area!

Sounds like it is more Oxford's doing! Glasgow offered Friday reading the article. Oxford didn't seem bothered about getting Redcar to ride with a load of guests and r/r.

Parkstone Road reopened as of 10.30 according to the link. No life changing injuries, so that is good.

Thought that is what I heard! But was multitasking at the time. Edit - if anyone wants to see the chateau it is on C4 atm.

Are you sure it is on Wimborne Road? Had a look at Bournemouth Echo twitter. Has a crash on Parkstone Road between car and motorbike (hope everyone is ok) near the Civic Centre and there is a lot of traffic around there. But doesn't say anything about Wimborne Road. https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/23816490.gridlock-poole-crash-closes-parkstone-road/

Who is the Champ one?

Was watching EMTV preview show of Friday and sure they said that Howarth pulled out of tomorrow (assuming at Sheffield's request?) and they are using r/r.

What about Sunday? Is everyone free then? Sure they will let you have one day over. Can't see the playoff final start til the following week anyway.

It didn't seem to with the pairs. But as you can use any 2 of your top 3 for that, you may well be right. Scott doesn't seem too convinced about the call off. https://x.com/scottnicholls78/status/1706628137050624012?s=20

Is there a GP? Scott might be doing TV stuff..?
