nice try! Extending your 'logic' of 7-9 for heat leaders then and a GP rider being in this band perhaps it would be more plausible for the top end to be 9 the bottom to be 7 and those in the middle 8. Lindback in 8th would be an 8... makes complete sense to use your own phrase.

The reasoning given by Pboro is that no facility available as riders off to SEC and Pardubice meetings. Therefore it wouldve been 4 NL riders not guests and r/r. Can see there point but why sign riders who cant commit? Seems all the eggs went in the basket marked 'win the 2 home meetings' which became a contender for the worlds largest omlette!

10 min piece at 1:35 - interviews with Ritchie and Morten.Nice end to the Morten section....

it would seem strange to leave the QF 2nd leg to the 30th but I suppose it may depend if the Monarchs are due to be missing anyone! wink

no doubt - hence my labelling 'The Teflon Kid' on another thread. Still stands that ultimately that loyalty is possibly what cost qualification.

I think it was not all the changes that were made but rather the one that wasnt that ensured it didnt work with the last late reshuffle. Keeping Ostergaard meant a woefully exposed bottom 3 along with a stuttering at best Mr O. Keeping NBJ (or finding a n other) and Morris instead and not bringing back Hall wouldve given a much better balance.

if the likes of Bjerre Thomsen and uncle Tom Cobley had these plans in place weeks ahead why sign them knowing they couldnt/wouldnt be able to commit in the week before the cut off? This isnt snidey, it isnt sh!t stirring and it isnt gloating - just a common sense statement.

If the Witches get within 10 it would be a great effort. Should be a good marker as to whether we have what it takes to be competitive in the play off. Think it may well be a home win by 12-14.

echo that.Good to put a face to a name,shake hands and say hello. HT is one of my favourite posters. Always insighful and a calming balance.

in all seriousness i fully understand that and extend nothing but genuine goodwill that matters work out positively. indeed - fully expect us to be joining you on the sidelines next week as well.

Come on guys lets leave the pussycays alone to cry into their pre bedtime drink whilst reflecting on what may have been.... night night - dont have nightmares!

The Newcastle full 1-7 would be favourites overall IMO. Missing Rose is a blow but still ahead. I expect them to meet Somerset in the final (if they are kept apart??) Glasgow a big threat to gatecrash and Edinburgh could spring a surprise if can dominate at home. Witches the dark horses as despite the recent form there has been little against the top sides to gauge just how good we have been. Away at Newcastle on Sunday although having nothing on it itself will at least provide a marker as to whether we really are contenders..... Sheffield the big outsiders. Whatever will be will be....

99.9% sure it is Baldy.....

Bring on the Monarchs!! Phenomenal effort ftom the Witches to claw their way to a play off place. Whatever happens from now is a bonus.

Great company great fun and great result - lets do it all again next week!!??

its gone very well thank you. A celebration of play off qualification - which probably why you dont understand..... wink

just to clarify i was referring to the table not macca when i said 'it' wink Sorry to hear that scotsman - all the best.

Problems are just there so they can be solved Baldy... Theres always a way.....

with the rather defensive responses to our 'banter' I think Pboro v The Rest of the World is most apt.... wink

I have a folding table ready in my car (room for you macca if you still need transport) Just hope they let me in with it....

Get yourself along Macca and have a laugh with us all as usual.

Congrats to Sheff. Just down to us Witches to banish the pussycats of Pboro to league table mediocrity now....

A massif ratherth? Sounds a bit painful.

he has to get in front first..... wink No way should we use Halsey for this one - just imagine he scored a single point in his last ride which was enough to secure our play off place ahead of the pussycats. Even I couldnt inflict that sort of pain on them!

Gutted for Danyon. He has been great and a big part of the turnaround. Would trade our potential play off place for him not to have got hurt but as thats not an option in the real world lets go out and win it for him. as is said 'its ok to make mistakes so long as you learn from them' We will find out how much we have learnt on Thursday and (hopefully) the next few weeks.
