Monarchs fans will make the trip to the Cumbrian coast tonight (7.00) with hope in their hearts of returning with full Premier League points after so many stunning away results this term, and they face an in-form Workington side who have been ravaged by injuries.

The Scotwaste Monarchs missed a chance to take at least a point out of their match at Workington when they went down by 51-42, in spite of having a majority of heat winners.

The tie was already done and dusted prior to the second leg, but Monarchs did an efficient job of completing their qualification for the semi-final with an aggregate win of just under 50 points.

Fans would be wrong if they think this Friday's KO Cup quarter final second leg tie against King's Lynn at Armadale (7.30) is a dead rubber. The Stars are still hurting after their first leg drubbing and have already built an exciting new side.

The Scotwaste Monarchs had little difficulty qualifying for the KO Cup semi final when they beat King's Lynn 58-31 (aggregate 114-65) in a one-sided tie. They will race Workington in the semi final on dates to be arranged.

The Scotwaste Monarchs face an interesting, new-look King's Lynn team in the KO Cup quarter final second leg at Armadale this Friday.

The Scotwaste Monarchs turned in an excellent showing at Peterborough in the Fours, just making the final on a countback, and then coming a worthy second to the deserving winners Birmingham.
