  1. But in this case both teams are vying with Plymouth for 6th place. Most important thing for Plymouth is it's not a draw
  2. I don't understand all these conspiracy theories regarding Andersen getting injured / missing his flight. If Peterborough wanted to drop him they can, if Andersen wants to leave he can. I see no advantage to either story not being true, so why don't (some) people believe the stories?
  3. Not sure you need a North / South divide. Even if most of the clubs return, they should be able to fit in all the fixtures (weather permitting)
  4. They did bother, they brought in the "rising star" system, it was part of the FIVE year plan which the Championship dropped after ONE year!
  5. You get more chances at predicting guests, you only get one scoreline to predict at each match
  6. Why are Edinburgh using Mark Parker as number 8 & not Mickie Simpson, seems odd? Sensible guest in Roynon though as he's riding in the second match.
  7. It'll be embarrassing if clubs have to extend the deadline when they only had to fit in 8 home league meetings!
  8. Actually you can, clubs just have to judge the situation, some make more of an effort to get matches on, others will cut their losses very often. The downside of running against a poor forecast if the crowd level will likely be lower with fans either deciding it's gonna get called off or will be a wet & miserable night even if it's on! The problem with last night's call off is fans may be even less likely to attend in poor weather in the future now?
  9. As Kent only had 8 home fixtures to fit in, I can't believe they have resorted to staging a double header!
  10. I must admit I cannot understand why they would chose Schlein as a guest until he's made his comeback & proved he's fit again! @scoobydoo he was actually replacing an injured rider (MPT)
  11. No facility mean 75% of average, so Panthers had 3.46 available to find a guest for Andersen. Assuming it was short notice & Kinsley is local?
  12. But it could be they are putting in dozens of hours every week running the club to make a very small profit, which would make it one of the more successful clubs, but the profit gained isn't worthwhile enough for the hours put in?
  13. I do think it's stupid that they list how many races each team has scored next to their points, when it is always the same for every team!
  14. But he said that is unlikely to go ahead, you don't want fans travelling & turning up in those situations either
  15. I'm not suggesting Ellis did well tonight, did win a heat thought, I'm saying he's the 4th best rider on Polish form, so the sensible option for 4th rider. Whoever is the 4th rider in the final is unlikely to score much at all.
  16. Not sure your point? A captain is allowed to disagree with the team manager & the team manager doesn't have to do what the captain wants!
  17. They're gonna lose handsomely no matter what, might as well try something different?
  18. Sheffield & the BSPL have really boxed themselves into a corner now, Wolves were forced into this date (against their wishes) because it was the "only date available" so how are Sheffield going to re-arrange this fixture? Whatever date is given Wolves can rightly say "so why wasn't this date offered instead of July 24th"
  19. Unless it's a Thursday meeting & they're racing in a re-arranged Polish Extraleague match!
  20. Instead I suggest riders have to wait 5 meters from the tapes, all come up together, green light immediately on: Eliminates gate position advantage Eliminate delays due to "gardening "
