  1. Says details to whether it will be rearranged to follow so how's this going to work!!! I like the method in the cups where the results as they are stand meaning scorpions stay top of group. then again they might decide with a coin toss!!
  2. If that is protested and anything done about it that will open up a big can of worms. How many decisions can be seen to be wrong on a dvd afterwards. Shall we go back and change every single one of them and amend every result!! The referee is in charge and make a decision at the time. If they have video replays available there and then they should use it but you cant just then go back afterwards and say you are wrong as you cannot then also say that the next heats would have played out the same if the scores were different. Shall we go back and amend every footy result that has ever had a wrong decision because a tv replay afterwards says so?? P.s. my stance is nothing to do with being a scunny fan and liking the result as it was meaning as long as monarchs dont lose next week we go through
  3. Tom couldnt do 4 laps after his accident. Do you think we signed him in the first place because he was that bad!! He spent plenty of time over here ther previous 2 years and he showed he can race. At press and practise he showed he had the speed it would be about learning the tracks. It wold all depend on how he had recovered and performs over the austrailan season i dont think he would want to come back over himself unless he was back to full tilt.
  4. Here are my initial thoughts for next Years team Davis Howe 7.89 Tommy gun 6.42 Richie W 5.78 Ash Birks 5.59 Steve W 4.03 Palm tree/Wilko/Tom Armstrong 5.21/4.66/5 This leaves 1 place left and depending which of the 3 to partner steve at reserve will leave between 7.58 and 8.13 for our final member Wilko would leave us enough for nick or Josh but think they will probably concentrate on EL next year We easily have enough for a new 7pt Dane or swede but its finding the right one and the likes of Mikkel Michelsen looks like now he has finish studies is likely to go straight to EL. I like the look of Jonas B andersen. Alternatively as an outside punt would like to see either Daniel Ivanov or Andrej Karpov but think they will be too busy doing poland/sweden/denmark to race a PL season
  5. Not really true we have been good all season we just had mostly away meetings the first half of the season due to weather so we were in a false lower position. we were always high up in the minimax tables
  6. Why would there be doubts over scunny. Rob stated he has funded the team for 2 years aiming to go for the league title again next year after using this year to bring in new riders
  7. Correct you can only use your guest for your number 1 but read the following rules 17.9 A NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT LEAGUE Team’s initial Declaration will consist of a squad of 8 Riders, of whom the highest 7 Riders by MA must not exceed 40.00 points (for 2012, 2013 & 2014) with the 8th Rider’s MA not exceeding that of the lowest Rider in the top 7. 17.9.1 It must also not exceed 40.00 points when re-declared (permanent or temporary) except where the MA of the introduced Rider is equal to, or lower than the Rider being replaced. So How do you know that the lineup doesnt have a temporary declaration made before a meeting placing steve at number 1 and the number 8 into the team. This temprary declaration then allows the guest upto the average of Steve. There is nothing to state how often this can be done As i said its all about using the rules to your advantage although we could just make a permanant redeclaration without jerran and still do the same but i suppose they have their reasons
  8. Try reading it again you will notice we are currently using numbers 2-8 in the list and the top average rider of them is steve worrall who is out (The rules do not state which of your 8 riders have to be used as long as within the limits making the lineup have Worrall at the top therefore eligible for a guest!). Its called rules and adapting to them like all teams do
  9. I would expect the redeclared lineup will have Hart removed and both Tommy and Max in the 1-7 with either no number 8 or adam kirby at number 8. all the 3pt riders are improving so would be hard to pick one to drop to bring adam back in so as far as scunny are concerned its as win win loaning him to stoke for the rest of the season
  10. Adam is still in the declared team and officially Max Clegg is Number 8 but due to injuries he has been in the team alongside tommy fenwick. If adam came back in then one of these would have to be dropped so can only think Rob and Stuart knowing this is a development season see this as a chance for adam to race a different track and still give all scunnys 3pt riders the rest of the season without having to drop one of them
  11. Oh well will talk to myself in this thread Looks like my eye for talent is good with the news of desparate lightbulb signing in this weeks speedway star (desparate DAN. One of the biggest manufatures of lightbulbs PHILLIPS) Thats 4 out of my list of 7 signed up
  12. Well the cats out the bag in the speedway star about our new Youngster being Tom Young being signed from newport on a full transfer. A couple of years ago at the U-19 at scunny showed huge potential but seems to have stalled a bit the last couple of years but think if he gets going here could be a heat leader by the end of the year. Welcome to the saints Tom
  13. Definitely another Youngster!! My Team would be 1. Gary Irving (hopefully will be No1 all season allowing us a choice of guests on bank holidays. there is 3 others i canthink of!!) 2. Adam Wrathall (could be his breakthrough year and has been looking very fast on his new bike this winter) 3. Stefan. Also seems faster and smother this winter. 4. Oliver greenwood. Ideally would be at reserve but liekyl to be the strongest of the 3pters so likely to be in main body 5. Our new signing and if he improves like his potential showed a few years ago should be pushing for Number 1 by end of season 6. Sam woods/Connor Dwer/Jordan tyrer - fresh 3pt rider with second half experience from midlan league/denmark(sam) 7. Raw rookie lets call him the "desparate lightbulb" I wont name him but having seen him in his short time looks like he could have big potential and would love to see him in the team With the crop of 3pters would also allow us to have a number 8 and taken them to every meeting and potential let them share the rides to get more experience and more riders come through By the end of the year I would hope adam/stefan /new signing all to be pushing for guest bookings in the prem.
  14. Will let you off with that one but my point still stands Its fans on here saying its cheating but not the officials who did nothing
  15. Definitely seems to be a case of sore losers. Knowing Richard fairly well he would not do something like that without good reason. Mind you If what he was doing was blantant cheating as you suggest you should get someone with rules there!!!! Oh hang on there is a Ref for things like that. Now what did he do???
  16. The 4.00 Pl average limit is just for riders who are doubling up between the leagues. At the moment with not having a premier league spot that makes him eligable. not sure what happens if he started the season and then took a spot but think he would then have to only race in one. He would be ideal for the team has experience and will especially be helpfull for the home matches away at sheffield
