You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.145.0.0/16 has been blocked by ‪JJMC89‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~}}. You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:32, 2 April 2025. Your current IP address is 54.145.58.168.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The '''2012–13 LV Cup''' (styled as the '''LV= Cup''') is the 42nd season of England's national [[rugby union]] cup competition, and the eighth to follow the [[Anglo-Welsh Cup|Anglo-Welsh]] format.

The competition consists of the four Welsh [[Pro14|Pro12]] teams and the 12 [[English Premiership (rugby union)|English Premiership]] clubs arranged into pools consisting of three English and one Welsh team. English clubs have been allocated to the pools depending on their finish in the [[2011–12 English Premiership (rugby union)|2011-12 Aviva Premiership]]. Welsh regions have been allocated to the pools to avoid repeating fixtures from the [[Heineken Cup|Heineken]] and [[European Challenge Cup|Amlin Challenge cups]] where possible. Teams are guaranteed two home and two away pool matches, with teams in Pools 1 and 4 playing each other and teams in Pools 2 and 3 playing each other, with the top team from each pool qualifying for the semi-finals.<ref name=Premiership>{{cite web|url=http://www.premiershiprugby.com/premiership/news/31107.php|title=2012-13 LV= Cup fixtures unveiled|date=23 July 2012|publisher=Premiership Rugby|accessdate=23 July 2012}}</ref> The competition will take place during the Autumn Internationals window and during the Six Nations thus allowing teams to develop their squad players.

[[Leicester Tigers]] are defending champions this season after claiming the cup with a 26–14 victory over [[Northampton Saints]] in the final at [[Sixways Stadium]] in [[Worcester, England|Worcester]]. It was the seventh victory for Leicester Tigers (a record) in the competition, and the second since the current Anglo-Welsh format was adopted in [[2005–06 Powergen Cup|2005]].

=== Qualification criteria ===
The top teams from each pool qualify for the knockout stages. The pool winners will be decided by the following criteria:<ref name="LV_FAQ" />
:1. The pool winner will be the club with the highest number of match points in each pool. The pool winners will be ranked 1 to 4 by reference to the number of match points earned in the pools. 
:2. If two or more clubs in the same pool end the pool stage equal on match points, then the order in which they have finished will be determined by: 
::i. the greater number of matches won by the club and 
::ii. if the number of matches won is equal, the club with the greater total number of tries scored and 
::iii. if the total number of tries scored is equal, the club with the greater points difference (points scored for, less points scored against) and 
::iv. if the points difference is equal, the club with the fewer number of red cards and 
::v. if the number of red cards is the same, by the toss a coin.

Each of the four qualifying clubs shall be ranked as above and shall play each other as follows: 
:Semi-final 1 – 1st ranked club v 4th ranked club 
:Semi-final 2 – 2nd ranked club v 3rd ranked club 
The first club listed in each of the semi-final matches shall be the home club.
