Smudger06 1,341 Posted June 12, 2019 Report Share Posted June 12, 2019 Promotion Final should be at a neutral site, probs Keepmoat Stadium, or LSV if Leigh are not involved. Link to post Share on other sites

Canis Lupus 250 Posted June 12, 2019 Report Share Posted June 12, 2019 I thought it was agreed earlier in the year as highest placed finisher from the two who make the final? Link to post Share on other sites

I already told you..its at the home field of the side with the best record...probably Toronto unless things change dramatically or there is an upset (which is possible). Was in League Express ages ago...decision has been made. Link to post Share on other sites

Snowys Backside 161 Posted June 13, 2019 Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 It has always been a neutral venue based on this format. Toronto will be guaranteed a home semi against the lowest ranked team ? Unfair if the final isn't neutral Link to post Share on other sites

At the home of the winner of Game D (1st vs winner of 2nd-3rd), giving a fortnight’s notice for the venue so a week longer than was the case for £1m Game. Link to post Share on other sites

Unfair if the final isn't neutral Toronto finishing top would give them a home semi against the winner of 2nd vs 3rd with the winner straight through to the final. The lowest ranked teams play each other for the right to go to the loser of 2nd vs 3rd. Link to post Share on other sites

This would be the best way to do it with this playoff format, IMHO. Still not seen it anywhere official, and KMan reckons it's hosted by the finalist who finished higher in the league Link to post Share on other sites

I'd assume that is within the RFL guidelines , ultimately wether it was 75 quid , 7,500 quid or 750,000 quid , he probably can afford it , but that doesn't mean he should be fined more than what the guidelines state So it's now over and done with as far as I am concerned , time to move on Link to post Share on other sites
