I did question whether he should have rode in the semi against Ipswich. In the play-offs he wouldn't be allowed so what difference should the cup make. I suppose the difference between the play-offs and the KO Cup,is that if any team needed a rider because one of their riders are injured in the KO Cup you have no PL teams to choose a rider from,in the play-offs you have 3 teams to choose from. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bash Posted July 21, 2025 Report Share Posted July 21, 2025 You have the three teams that were knocked out in the first round Belle Vue, Oxford & Birmingham to pick from, same as the three teams to not qualify for the play offs to pick from.

"Guests for the semi-final(s) of the KO Cup can only be selected from teams that have been eliminated from that competion".Sheffield were eliminated,so I can't see a problem. Edit:I can't actually see anything stopping the 2 teams that make the play off final from using a rider from the other two teams knocked out in the semi finals if needed.

StarBoy Posted July 24, 2025 Report Share Posted July 24, 2025 It appears the Stars are about to launch some form of collaboration with Team Quadrant (lifestyle and gaming brand founded by F1 superstar Lando Norris).
