Whitworth Yed Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Am I right in thinking that if we win our Semi Final next week, we go straight to the Final which will be played at the Vestacare? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Naylor Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 The odd situation would be if we lose. We'd then have a preliminary-final at the Vestacare Stadium but then a win would send us to a final away from home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jroyales Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 So Newcastle losing to Doncaster have an easy route into the final albeit away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jemmo Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 To get to the final Newcastle now have to beat Workington and then the loser of Oldham and Doncaster. Oldham and Doncaster just have to win one, and even if they lose get another chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Naylor Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Now we're approaching round two of the play-offs, we know that the final will be played at the Vestacare or Keepmoat Stadium. Losing to Doncaster means that Newcastle have to beat Workington at home, then travel to Oldham or Doncaster (the loser of our game on Sunday), beat one of those two then travel to Oldham or Doncaster (the winner of our game on Sunday) for the final. We've just got to win two games to be promoted and the first of those is at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ultimate roughyed Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Read the small print at the bottom of the picture below, home venue for all play off games will be decided by the highest ranked team. So, even if we lose on Sunday we play at home in the final (if we get there). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was using what appears to be an older version of the explanatory poster that doesn't have the highest ranked team bit. Grrrrrr! Sooooo. The final will be one of: Doncaster v Workington Newcastle v Doncaster Oldham v Workington Oldham v Doncaster Oldham v Newcastle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
