Glasgow declined to ride the fixtures in August. When both teams had blank dates.

Do you really think this is an appropriate comment after what happened this evening?

A North East Ambulance Service spokesperson said: "We were called to a road traffic incident this evening (12 October) at 19:38 on Dormor Way in Middlesbrough. We dispatched one ambulance crew and one patient was taken to James Cook University Hospital."

Neither.  Rule 012.1.26.  Team who scored more 5-1s over the two legs is the winner.

Best wishes to the injured supporters.

In the circumstances the result is less important than their welfare but rule 012.1.26 does not say it's the team with most 5-1s, it says it is the team with most heat advantages over the two legs that wins. Which in this case seems to be Redcar (8 heat wins to Glasgow's 7)

Actual wording is:

Any official team fixture abandoned after heat 10 where the score is level,
in either leg and/or on aggregate after the second leg, the extra point will be
decided with the count back system using the results of both legs, if
appropriate. The team who scored the most heat advantages (5-0, 5-1, 4-
2, 3-2, 3-0 in no particular order) will be awarded the extra match point
and/or aggregate point.

I don't think they will announce anything until they know the fans are okay. Fingers crossed they are.

One poster has said it is just on 5-1s which would be a bit harsh seeing as there was only one over the 2 legs.

Another poster has said 5-1s and 4-2s. Both teams have had a good amount of 4-2s, so would be fairer if they were included imo. 

 

Hope that all are OK.

The rule only goes to 4-2s if its not clear from the 5-1s as i understood it but it could be ALL heat advantages. So it would be Tigers on the 5-1 basis or Redcar on total heat advantages.

"In no particular order" should be understood to mean any heat advantage, no matter the value. 

That's 8-7 in favour of Redcar.

Hopefully, none of the spectators were seriously hurt. It was an awful crash. From what the ref was saying it goes to a ballot. This might change of course with further investigation.
