Correct he rode for them in 2010, so it seems with the usual ambiguity in and not thinking the rules through, could he be our second rider required by the rules?.

Do Riders 'manipulate' Their Averages To Get A Ride?
A ORLOV replied to Gresham's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Of course some riders do, if the bspa keep having or reducing the team limit riders will want a job next year. Many fans are fed up with teams changing every year and having a good rider improve, increase his average then get dropped from the team the following season. -
Under the start of the season averages where the team limit is 50 yes, but at some point all the averages will be changed to what the riders are actually scoring this season and the team limit changed to 42 and it was mentioned somewhere that his average will be about 5ish. Scores tonight for Nick and Dany at Berwick v Peterborough Berwick 50 Peterborough 40 Nick 2,3,3,3,3 14 Dany 3,3,1,3,1,2,0 13+1 Adam Ellis just missed out on a run off for last place for getting through to the World U21 final. He came 8th with 9 points.

Matt Williamson is guesting for Dany http://www.swindonrobins.co/news.php?extend.2877 -
Remember last year Rosco threatened him with an option buck up or go and look what he did, he improved no end. Rosco would know why he has been underperforming this year, It may just be that being number 1 has been too much for him. hyabb post Assuming you take Ellis & Gappmaier out that would give - 13.43 building to 50 points, Rohan will be 9.03 which would only leave 4.4, in my opinion it doesn't really help matters. Ideally you would want to push BWD to reserve so that said find an 8 pointer & a 5.4 pointer at 2. I believe that until all teams have done 4h & 4a the 50 point limit & starting averages will be used. This is what Somerset have declared too even though they've done the 4h, 4a. Rohan will have an average of about 5 once that kicks in but who knows what the team building limit will be, my guess is 42. Rohans 2017 av has dropped a lot and he seemed to be happy at Swindon, it depends if he gets on with Jason. The point is who else is there.

Can Rohan get temporary British nationality in the next few days

Swindon are using r/r for BWD whos hand injury from last night has stopped him riding for a while. -
You must have good hearing

It often seems to be the case that after a couple of week break some of our riders fall asleep at the gate, this happened a few times last year where we had unexpected losses. Last night was not good and we should have won but what did not help was BWD injuring his hand in his first race and the awful performance of A Ellis. The big difference was in the reserves with ours scoring 6 and KL scoring 12 from a very good performance from Kai Huckenbeck. From what Rosco has commented on the middle order need to up their game and they will have to show what they can do in the next few meetings. With having to have two British riders in the team that does limit any changes that Rosco could make and it may be that a decent or recently signed rider may have to give way for a change, what also is not helping is the complete screw up with the mucking about with the averages. Lets see how the team do tonight and monday and see if they are just rusty or if one or two riders are struggling. No

Right Pirate Oliver today IS thursday. The weather here is bright and sunny so the track should be ok for a good meeting tonight.
-
We did not seem to get heavy rain in South Swindon, anyway lets hope that the sunny spells and wind tomorrow makes the track raceable.
-
Well today we did not get the deluge of rain that was forecast, just steady light rain all day, so with no more rain due overnight or tomorrow and the sunny intervals forecast for thurs we should get some speedway.

Will see how we go on thurs and find out which riders we will have on friday as Berwick and Lakeside are riding. I would think our new reserve Dany will be at Berwick but not sure who Zach will be riding for. -
Raining now and forecast says pi##ing down all day tomorrow but forecast for thurs looks ok. Will update on thurs.
