NEW DATE FOR PLAY-OFF

WOLVERHAMPTON will now stage their Premiership play-off semi-final home leg against Sheffield next Monday (October 3, 7.30).

Monday’s original attempt was beaten by the weather with riders and officials all in agreement to postpone the fixture.

Wolves co-promoter Chris Van Straaten said: “Hopefully next Monday, the sun will be shining and we’ll be able to recover what we lost.

“What is nice about it is that the two legs will now both be in the same week.

“Rather than being on tenterhooks for ten days, the two meetings are closer together and I’m looking forward to what should be a great battle.”

*Elsewhere, Glasgow and Poole will try again with their Championship semi-final at Ashfield this Saturday (October 1, 3pm) with that meeting now becoming the second leg after Wednesday’s opener at Wimborne Road.
