  Edinburgh Monarchs

We are just a few hours away from knowing if we will make progress in the Premier League Play-offs with our second leg quarter final match against Ipswich getting underway at 7.30pm.

We have had some rain at Armadale, with a particularly heavy shower at lunchtime. However, the forecast does suggest an improving position as the afternoon progresses and we do expect to stage this important event. There is such a tight schedule in this competition, the semi final is programmed to commence next Friday, that is vital that we make every effort to run.

The Border Roofing Monarchs had a gathering last night to discuss the upcoming meeting and all are well aware of the importance of the event . The Witches hold a 26 point lead but such deficits have been overcome in the past.

Those who hold unused advance tickets from any event rained off earlier in the season can use those tickets tonight. Season ticket holders are reminded that there tickets are not valid tonight and a discounted admission charge will be payable at their normal admission gate.

The gates open at 6.30pm with the meeting getting underway at 7.30pm.
