But it is still the knock out cup... but in a new innovation, in the best interest of the sport... you just don't get knocked out, simple, everyone's a winner 👍🏻😁

Ahhhhh....

Now it all makes sense....

I am sure you and your fellow Leicester fans, are chomping at the bit to join in on Monday...:D

Yeah, I think we'll be out on Monday... and then back in again a couple of weeks later... what a brilliant competition, I like it 👌

The Hokey Cokey Cup...

Missed a trick there didn't they?;)

Just out of interest, how would the two of you suggest that they run a knockout cup with 6 teams ?

Assume 2 would be seeded into the semis, so would that be the 2 finalists from last season ?

As Northampton would be one of the quarter finalists, that would delay the whole competition as they are not going to be ready to ride at home until the end of the month.

Yes, we can all be cynical about it, but I would say the format chosen for this year is probably the best option in the current circumstances.

Not that new:

In 1998 the Premier League KNOCK OUT Cup consisted of two groups. 

In the group matches Peterborough easily bested Reading winning at Alwalton and Smallmead, but Racers won the cup beating Peterborough in the final.
