  1. Really like Gusts, happy to see him in the UK
  2. His ban ends at the start of December this year
  3. Only thing I can see about it in the regulations is this, though not sure if the second paragraph would apply since Victor has been away for some time, I'd assume Victor would be 5th in averages but maybe Edinburgh can choose. In any declaration where 2 or more riders hold an identical MA (cannot be determined by a 3rd or more decimal point) then the re-declaration must nominate the hierarchical order. Where riders have a previous MA, then the higher placed rider from the previous issue shall retain the higher position.
  4. Pretty sure the discounted average becomes the riders average until the first main greensheet
  5. Opole is still quite big compared to most of the UK tracks, Marcin rode quite well for Lodz and almost had a heart attack when he entered turn 1 at Edinburgh for the first time and you could argue he is the better rider. If he can work out the track though he will be a very good signing
  6. I thought when riders are tied it's decided for the clubs and the greensheet says what position they are in, maybe their foreign averages would decide it?
  7. Does Plymouth not ride Saturdays now or have they went back to Tuesday?
  8. I'm fairly sure I remember seeing an announcement about Ford stepping down as he had more commitments this year and he was replaced with someone but can't remember where I saw that and can't find it now. For Foord it could have just been he preferred Workington over Poole or Poole waited too long to sign him.
  9. You can make like for like changes without having to redeclare the team under the point limit i.e. replacing a 5 pointer with a rider with an average 5 or bellow. Nicholls wouldn't be a like for like replacement for any rider other than Masters, so to slot him in the team would have to redeclare at 40 or below. It will most likely depend on how quickly Scott can return on if it will be possible.
  10. To make those 2 changes you'd have redeclare the team at 40 or under, it's more a case of will the other 5 push their averages up enough where it won't fit
  11. Was quite optimistic about him after watching him in the SON, but that optimism didn't last long. He seemed scared to race other riders round Glasgow, think he'd be equally terrified of Berwick
  12. 1. 1.5 times Prem average 2. I believe the Prem average would be used but after enough matches (4?) the previous champ scores would be used to calculate when the averages update (someone can correct me if I'm wrong)
  13. I did have Fredriksen instead of Hook, who would do the job of a number 2 quite well in my opinion, but only fits with Nicholls instead of Pickering who I think would be the most likely rider to take a short term deal to replace Nicholls. Brennan instead of Pickering would also fit with Fredriksen. It's difficult to fit Masters, Jenkins and a strong enough rider to keep Scott's place till he's fit without having a weaker tail.
  14. Masters 9.15 Pickering 9.42 Jenkins 6.21 Gilkes 5.08 Hook 4.17 Scott 2.00 Killeen 3.85 39.88 Maybe try and convince Picko to ride on a short term deal until Scott is back? Quite hard to guess who will be at Oxford to be honest.
  15. Think some riders have gained in average due to riding with poorer riders (or riders having a poorer season). He's been riding a lot with Kye and if you look this year Kye has scored over double the bonus points than Paco. Looking at the averages including bonus points Paco is 7.56 and Kye is 7.47 but the GSAs are over half a point apart. Victim of the averages system I feel
