Workington Comets’ weekend double header with Berwick Bandits is off.
Poor weather forecasts for tonight and tomorrow have meant both meetings were postponed this morning.
The Bandits were due to stage tonight’s clash with the Sunday leg at Northside.
Results last night kept alive the Comets play-off hopes but they need to win all three remaining fixtures and pocket both aggregate points.
Glasogow secured top spot in the Cab Direct Championship with a 53-37 win over Edinburgh – and they may be set to face the Monarchs again in the play-offs.
The Tigers moved one point clear of Poole at the top of the table thanks to their home victory, whilst their Scottish rivals have also completed their fixtures and are currently in fourth place.
They will retain a play-off position unless Workington win each of their remaining three fixtures, as well as taking their last two aggregate points available – meaning the Comets require a home and away double over Berwick, and to overturn a 12-point margin in an away trip to Redcar next Friday.
Ex-Comet Kyle Howarth top scored for the Tigers at Ashfield with 13+1.
Redcar, who host the Comets next Friday, confirmed their place in the Cab Direct Championship play-offs with a 45-43 win in a last-heat decider at Scunthorpe.
The Bears will finish third in the league table and that means they are set for a semi-final clash with defending champions Poole.
An unusual meeting at the Eddie Wright Raceway saw both teams collect a 5-0, with the Redcar maximum coming in Heat 14 to put them ahead.
Youngster Luke Harrison, a former Workington rider, won Heat 15 for the home side but guest Antti Vuolas, the Comets’ Finnish star and ex-Comet Charles Wright kept Jake Allen at the back to secure the away win.
Wright scored 11+2 from five rides and Danny King collected nine, including three race wins.
Vuolas had an inauspicious start as guest, finishing last and then being excluded after a fall.
But he bounced back with two wins and a third to finish with 7 + 1.
Young Harrison, who rode for the Comets in their Development League season top-scored for the Scorpions with 10+1.
