Hide AdCo-promoter Trevor Geer is pleased to have resolved the Glasgow fixtures after some issues in finding a mutually acceptable date for all parties.
He said: "I must thank Glasgow for their co-operation in this matter, and also David and Peter Mason at Birmingham who quickly agreed to defer the planned league fixture at Arlington on August 3, so that we could arrange the Championship Shield semi-final home leg for that date.
"We must also acknowledge the support of Rob Godfrey and the British Speedway Promoters’ Association management committee in allowing us to stage the home leg three days after the planned cut-off date for the semi-final ties to be completed by July 31.
“With a number of Saturdays unavailable to us in the next few weeks (stock cars on Saturday July 13 and Saturday August 17, and Dirt Quake on Friday/Saturday August 9 and 10), we would have had to run a midweek fixture without the co-operation of all parties, which is very much appreciated."
