I think it's more important to sign the right riders, rather than whatever their average might be. If you sign seven riders who are on the up and they average 45, they'll beat seven riders who are on the way down or static and who can't be gelled with enthusiasm and unity but also average 45. The former generally costs more to assemble though.

Nice one Perks.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's even lower than that, mainly to accommodate NDL riders (the NDL will be well down on clubs, if it actually exists).

In Sweden and Poland they use that term.

Looks good, a few different options to view.

I wasn't talking about you, keep up!

Ah the 28th! Your resident brown noser didn't make that clear, fair enough.

Then why is the GB site saying it's next Sunday?

Why, Redcar ran their leg and won it, surely a leg not run should be declared a draw?

Why can't the meeting be held on another race day? We already have people suggesting it might be next year!

Draw that match!

This is a farce, Newcastle should have to forfeit the leg or it should be declared a draw.

Well he could just say he was dropping down anyway, no need to make up a story.

You're assuming there will be a 'top league.'

That was a very brave effort by the Bears but sadly (as I predicted here) the lead was just too little.

Do you mean, had he been drinking?

You obviously don't know the Redcar promotion.

Waterman and Parker....Gods of the track.

It's the same everywhere where judgements are made, take a look at your local court files. I don't even know why you bothered starting the thread.

It still wasn't the right thing to do.

I didn't think anyone was authorised to enter the referee's box (pardon) or indeed invite someone there, with the exception of those who share it for commentary etc.

If that put the kid out of racing then he probably wasn't right to be in it.

Me too, I'd have preferred some new blood.

Really? Well I started as a spectator in the 50s and eventually did a bit as a mechanic and sponsor, now at my (quite) old age I don't get to many meetings and all my local tracks are long gone. So we all have a little experience, anyway you strike me as an assuming and know it all type so I won't be bothering you again.
