It was a joke!! Re fixture changes the Witches have this week blank and it seems no other team was willing/able to bring their visit forward for that so no doubt the same for the week before. The selected date was always the reserved slot for the cup round so the possible clash wouldve been known before the start of the season.

just so eveyone is fully informed can you please re post this at 2.55 under a new user name of oldace+1

I think Somerset should call it off after all we can only have a NL guest fir Adam - need to be fair to the fans!!

Well at least its not gonna snow

Good luck with that - probably 50/50 as to whether you will even get a reply let alone a satisfactory resolution.

And in contention right til the last heat where as in recent years we have been the team tailed off and making up the numbers. Its a start without which you cant look to get to the middle and then the end eg rostrums and then winning. At least now there is some kind of plan rather than just leaving the youngsters to sink or swim.

If the Witches could pull off a win it would represent a remarkable turn around since Good Friday. Realistically even with the Panthers having a couple of issues at present Id say most Witches fans would see a point as a huge success. Where theres the will there is always hope though and the Witches wont have a better time to feel confident than right now after thumping Somerset.

and of course why would Howarth be replaced having won 3 of 4 heats. Great effort from the boys - good to see us competitive in meetings like this again. So near and yet so far but lots of positives can be taken from this surely.

Ritchie is enjoying his speedway again and I think being made captain of the Witches has also had a positive impact on him. Long may it continue.

Polish updates showing 37 37 34 with the Czechs winning a run off??? They have Howarth winning heat 1 not third with Holub position reversed???

unfortunately you seem to have this post stuck on copy and paste function at present.

Very much a confidence rider and he has certainly found some since being dropped by Swindon. Very fast indeed when out in fresh air but often suspect in traffic particularly on the first turn. Must be so frustrating to have him in your side when he is on a downer knowing what he can be capable of.

On to another reincarnation of a Jepsen Jensen moniker and off to Coventry.All these years so many have wanted him sent to Coventry and now he goes all of his own accord!!

I believe Rohan did indeed turn down the chance.

I think the first 5 heats could be vital. If its something like 22-8 then its game on. Witches need to get a solid start to calm any nerves. Cant wait - bring it on!

Rebels showing that the Witches cant be complacent in the 2nd leg of the KOC next week.

Rebels to bounce back and hit 60+

Top effort all round- the sort of result you wish for but never expect to actually happen. Need to start solid in the return leg so as not to let them get a foothold and feel they have a chance. Mortens pass was the best of the season so far IMO.

Shocked how poor Somerset look so far. Witches have been hot but but Rebels way off the pace. Thank you Ritchie H for pulling out my number in the 400 club draw - not first prize but cheers anyway fella!!

whilst I agree with the general sentiment of you point it has to be said that you can to an extent understand the cynics view. This is after all a project that was launched many years ago and was due for completion 3 years ago but as yet has not even been submitted for planning. I hope and expect that it will happen but it is likely to be a number of years yet before a wheel is turned IMO.

Witches to win by 12.

Thank you BSPA for not even bothering to acknowledge my email request let alone providing the info.

I would imagine that the clubs have agreed it that way. Given that the Rebels have no facility for Aspgren to go with r/r for Morris would severely weakened them whilst Swindon can get a guest under this years regs.Also running r/r with with the Foxhall record of Allen often being Fx- withdrawn would be a big risk.wink 2nd round technically after our first round bye!!

I think there is no doubt that Edinburgh are by far the best side in the PL at the moment. They did what those top sides do - pull out the result even when it looks like its going against them. Hard on Newcastle though - dont think many wouldve begrudged them the draw.
