szkocjasid Posted August 11 Report Share Posted August 11 2 hours ago, RyeHouseLucas said: Correct me if I'm wrong here, but if Plymouth won both matches against Redcar over the weekend, they can still make the playoffs? I meant realistically could make the play-offs, Scunthorpe could probably still have made it when I wrote that. Before their away match at Edinburgh, Monarchs pre-match comments were that Scunny needed a win in their play-off hunt, but for me that was so unlikely, not even worth contemplating. But obviously they've got to hype it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bitza Posted August 16 Author Report Share Posted August 16 (edited) Well unless the Cheetahs win this evening, the top four are pretty much nailed. The top 3 averaging around 2pts per meeting, Redcar 1+, and everybody else less than 1. The average points difference per meeting are kinda interesting. Poole 7.2 Glasgow 4.6 Edinburgh 3.0 Redcar. 2.1 Oxford - 1.0 Edited August 16 by Bitza 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But on Championship it does not say anything regarding who will race who .Do we assume it applies too both Leagues.

I haven't seen anything from Poole or Glasgow in the press about finishing top so they can choose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As usual it’s difficult for the average fan to know the ‘rules,people often ask me because they know I’ve been going to speedway for over 50 years and most of the time my answer is,I haven’t got a clue!!Maybe someone could help me out with this question?I believe in the play-offs you can’t use a guest from the other semi finalists? Does that also apply for the BSN trophy and the KO Cup?I ask because of Redcar’s situation of qualifying for all 3 semifinals and needing to get guest’s for Erik Riss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOTE – a newly Assessed rider is not eligible to guest b) a rider may ride as a guest (in an official meeting) at a track only once in an 8 day period (within that league) excluding Play Offs, unless he is replacing the home teams #1 or is ONLY declared in a British Development League Team c) the guest must be in a current team declaration and have an established MA. The MA must be the same or lower than that of the absent rider. If a rider has an established MA in both Premiership and Championship leagues the MA for the league for which the rider is guesting, will be used. If the rider does not have an established MA in that particular league then the conversion factor of 1.5 will apply d) the guest assumes the position and MA of the missing rider. A guest rider in a ‘double header’ shall count as one meeting only e) no rider, whose team is in the play offs may appear as a guest in the play offs, in that league f) a rider may only guest for one team in any 2 legged tie (home and away) g) Once a rider Guests for a team in a League Play Off Semi Final they cannot guest for ANY OTHER team in any other League Play Off Semi Final or Final h) Guests for the Semi-Final(s) or Final(s) of the Knock Out Cup can only be selected from teams that have been eliminated from that competition. i) Guests for the Semi-Final(s) or Final(s) of the BSN Series can only be selected from teams that have been eliminated from that competition.
