I rate Thomas, but given Kemp had a higher average than Thomas in both leagues last season I fail to see how it makes them weaker. Both have lots of potential, the question is can they fulfil it.

Phil Morris appointed Premiership CEO
arnieg replied to NeilWatson's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
How does Phil Morris change the rulebook? The rulebook 'belongs' to the ACU/SCB, except for the sections on league racing rules, for which responsibility has been delegated to the BSPL. But Phil has been appointed by Premiership promoters ( whose only influence over the rulebook is as BSPL members), so how can he change rules that effect the Championship clubs without them having a say? And if the solution is to allow changes that just effect the Premiership but not the Championship that further complicates the rulebook. -

His first major decision should be to retrospectively remove all tactical joker points from the 2006 play- off final scores. -

Car park fills up about 75-90 mins before start. You can park in Beaumont Leys shopping centre, however there is a STRICT 4 hour time limit -

An encouraging move. However it will be a challenging role for Phil given how many problems the sport has. So what do the Championship promoters do now? -
That's pushing the envelope
-
Drop into Leicester on the way up on Saturday, and then Monday's return via Belle Vue (at noon) and Wolves or Peterborough in the evening.

The Brighton Budgie Smugglers (bagsy be team manager ) -
The key failing was not to put a restriction on heatleader strength that would prevent teams having a powerful top three and as a consequence three low averaged riders, leaving little room for the mid-range riders.

Here's an idea: Instead of assessed averages being an absolute (and arbitrary) figure replace them with notional appearances with notional points and rides. Example Let's say that our rolling averages are over 8 matches (but the principle is the same whatever number you use) Assessed average of 4.5 equates to 32 rides and 36 points. Say our rider scores 12 from 5 on his debut. We remove 4 rides and 4.5 points from his rolling totals and add the 5 rides and 12 points New average is 5.27 Consider how this might give averages more reflective of their abilities for Adam Roynon, Joe Alcock, George Congreve, Luke Killeen, Ashton Boughen, Luke Harrison.

Leonard senior was a regular at California 1948-50. I don't think he ever rode league speedway. -
