Cool, I'll amend to add that in once I can also include the live stats link. Hopefully BBL will add it soon.

So there's no policy regarding which seed gets to play at home first then?

So we’re going for 37 and 38 consecutive wins in all competitions Vs Raiders / Patriots which is an all BBL record for those that are keeping count.
Hope we don’t get a similar game to last Fridays one where 47 fouls were counted and it lasted for 3 days…….
Really can’t see past Riders winning both legs by a comfortable margin.

Yeah I just noticed that Lions were home first rather than 2nd in their series so wasn't sure. Maybe that one was down to venue availability though. |

I thought I saw an argument on here recently that its not the same franchise though? So is the streak that you have beaten the city of Plymouth's number 1 team 36 times in a row rather than the franchise itself? Sorry for nitpicking  |

Let's be honest
The new franchise needs to do the old franchise a favour and put an end to this awful record Plymouth (in general) have against Riders

With that being said I don't believe anyone will beat this Riders team in 2 legs especially seeing how good they are. But if Plymouth play like they did against us yesterday and have a strong crowd backing I think they can give Leicester a run for their money. I saw on Joe Harts Instagram yesterday the Pats team were celebrating popping champagne and drinking beer like they won the playoffs after their win over us. |

Yeah think you have to celebrate moments, otherwise most teams will never celebrate anything.

It was at the supporters end of season party.
Get real fed up of the ridiculous quotes they're spouting of everyone wrote this team off. No, nobody did, they wrote the team off you cut. Of yesterday's starting 5 only 1 of them started the season and he went 0-6

Suspect the Copper Box availability may have caused that, Nix are having to wait until the local table tennis tournament has finished till we play on Sunday, hence the 6:30 start. |

Yes of course one day this record will be broken….but until then I’ll continue to laugh at Plymouth not being able to beat us in 36 attempts, As for if Plymouth play like they did against us……That really is a poor statement, They played ok against the poorest Eagles side in around the last 20 years…Not really something to celebrate about If Plymouth do manage to progress after 2 legs I will be the first to congratulate them….we’ll that’s if I can post before IRF does. |
