The What the Fork Monarchs battled hard but ultimately came up short of the match point they required going down 53-37 at Ashfield on Sunday a result that sees Glasgow move onto the final of the Jubilee League on points difference.

The task is known as the What the Fork Monarchs head to Ashfield on Sunday looking to progress to the final of the Jubilee League.

After Sam Masters and Lasse Fredriksen crashed out of last night's Scottish derby and were taken to hospital, details on their injuries have become clearer.

Tonight's Championship Jubilee match got off to the worst possible start with three riders ruled out after a first bend heat 1 crash. No meeting could truly recover from that but the WTF Monarchs did grit their teeth to emerge from a very tight encounter to pull clear with two closing 5-1s for a 50-40 victory which keeps them at the top of the mini-league for at least the time being.

The What the Fork Monarchs know they have qualification to the final of the Jubilee League in their own hands this weekend as they face home and away ties against the Glasgow Tigers starting Friday night at Armadale.

This Friday the Glasgow Tigers come to Armadale for the third time this season, on this occasion in the Championship Jubilee League.

If you are only going to lead a match at one stage then the time to do it is after heat 15 and that is exactly what the Monarchs achieved as a last heat 5-1 from the imperious Sam Masters and Josh Pickering gave them the spoils and a further 3 points in their quest to reach the Jubilee League final.

The What the Fork Monarchs look to build on a competition opening win as they head to Shielfield Park on Saturday evening to take on the Berwick Bandits the same opposition they bested by 12 points at Armadale on Friday night.
