It’s the manipulation that goes on after the season start that bugs me,then from 3/4 way through the seaso riders are starting to prepare for the next season with their average. Richie Worrell being an example,after what I read a few weeks ago.

It’s time they done away with averages,and had a broad banded Grading system,at least it would stop all this manipulation that’s going on at times.Rolling averages have helped but even they have their faults.

I have no idea what they put in!.Just pointing out that Major Companies don’t seem to want to be involved in our sport nowadays.Edinburgh openly admitted they lose money every year as do most tracks IMO.

No disrespect to the Staggs Bar and I am sure their Sponsership is very Welcome,but it does show how much the sport has declined when that is the level of Sponsership nowadays.Not many big Companies investing in the sport,showing the decline in the sport IMO.Again no disrespect just an opinion.t

My way or no way from Tai a lot of the time.IMO.He is trying to improve things though.#arting against Thunder IMO.

Do you really think there is spare cash floating about at other Clubs in the sport.?

Obviously in “the best interest of the sport caveat” as usual depending on the Promotion.

Considering the lack of fixtures over the season nowadays it just proves the shambles the sport is in regarding planning also with Monarchs having to go to Scunthorpe in cup 2 nd round as first fixture very poor Imo.

Hardly a sniche ,I’m sure the Hotel manager would gave Faceena a “wee call” later.

Insure your car then

Joe can only look at this as a opportunity missed in his speedway career, a bit silly of him IMO

Berwick has 2nd half pits

They wouldn’t.

Think we all know there is a good number on the same strategy.

That is my point,I think there are a few riders “playing the averages game” over the last few seasons.The sport has become a bit of a joke all round in recent season and they wonders how they can’t attract new fans.

In the article he stated Edinburgh offered him a contract.

obviously not,he has told you the reason he doesn’t want too high an average IMO . quote: Edinburgh would be good financially- riding there and scoring good points every week,but Average -wise,I don’t think I would be very attractive come the end of the year. Does that not tell you something about modern day riders in GB.?

Ritchie Worrell.

Think Ritchie Worrell says it all in this weeks SS,signed for Edinburgh last year where he loves the track ,not going back though would have been great financially but not average wise as it would be high at the end of the season.Who says riders don’t watch there average. Joke IMO.

Aaron Summers is saying he still owed money.

At least the “wobblers “seem to be trying for 4 laps which is not the case for the “seasoned” riders at times,better to have a”nice “ average for guesting for some of them at times IMO.

While you can agree or disagree with his assessment with the standard of the racing,Imo the problem is the sport cannot be taken seriously as professional with regards to the rules and regulation brought in for “best interest of the sport “ and the interpretation and manipulation of the rules to suit the situations as the problems arise.Fixtures and averages are an example.

Pity not for you though

It’s obviously been hard road for him but it’s great to see his determination to get on with life the best he can.TopGuy.

As usual everything is rosy in the BSPA garden,just give the clubs a fine if they fail to toe the line regarding fixtures.
