Using October averages and keeping a 42.5 limit:
1 Ben Barker 9.44
2 Leigh Lanham 7.16
3 Rohan Tungate 7.05
4 Cameron Heeps 6.74
5 Stefan Nielsen 4.70
6 Adam Ellis 4.25
7 Robert Lambert 3.00
Total 42.34
I thought Brady Kurtz was going to be a 5 this year but can be on a 3 next year as he would be old enough (17) to race on a british licence! Todd Kurtz started on a 3 for Newport if my memory serves me correct!
Given Rye House won, should Sheffield have been fined for fielding an understrength team - mind you Glasgow would be fined every away match if that was the case!
I was surprised Ipswich (3rd) and Scunthorpe (4th) were picked as high as they were, i was also surprised Edinburgh (7th) Berwick (8th) and Redcar (10th) we placed so low, i really rate those three teams!
As Rye House fan, consider we have 5 riders who were at reserve in 2012 (or 2011 for Nelson), Nelson - Bunyan - Garrity - Lambert - Lyke-Nielsen. So don't worry about your lot so much!
If you're willing to go without David Howe, what about this team (Octobers averages)
1 Josh Auty 8.09
2 Nick Morris 8.00
3 Thomas Jorgensen 6.42
4 Ashley Birks 5.59
5 Michael P Toft 5.21
6 Carl Wilkinson 4.66
7 Gary Irving 4.00
41.97
can't believe i forgot about Richie Worrall
using the October rolling ave's that would come to: 44.69
RICHARD LAWSON 8.68
RENE BACH 7.95
ADAM ROYNON 7.07
TERO AARNIO 5.76
KYLE HOWARTH 5.33
MICHAEL PALM TOFT 5.21
MASON CAMPTON 4.69
I see In September's rolling averages Plymouth's Jake Anderson has been listed as having ridden 2 matches, have the bspa forgot he rode for Birmingham / Glasgow in 2010, shouldn't these matches count?
I see in the speedway star Bowden said Lambert wouldn't be able to come in untill 21st July due to certain regulations, does anyone know what regulations these would be?
