4.5 to 5 seems fair for Newman

Then those who didn't use their vote should have got down to the polling stations and cast their vote. Sadly (for me and others), the majority who could be bothered to vote voted to exit.

Where are the reserves? Ellis, Newman and Starke have all demonstrated that they have progressed from the reserve berth.

Good job - the blue tints won't like it though

You are so funny

As they are for second strings - and heat leaders are falsely low. So it's the same for everyone - use their EL average with some sort of adjustments to account for anomalies. Interesting that you chose not to directly answer the hypothetical question set. Of course Kyle wouldn't ride for Coventry but thats not what I asked. What's your answer then?

Hypothetical situation - let's assume that both have the averages that SS suggested and both decide to ride for Coventry instead of Poole (regardless of loyalty etc) - would you then think that their averages were fair?

They may have been the rules this season but if this sport has any integrity left then that particular loophole that Poole has exploited for several seasons will be plugged. And Ellis as a reserve too I see from your previous post You are a comedian

Hahaha! You really think they will allow a PL converted average again? He has been in the EL for how many years now and you think 3.16 is a fair average for him?

I'd be very surprised if Kyle started at reserve next year - surely his average would put him in the 1-5?

Masters was never going to be a flop. In my opinion, he is the best of the current crop of Aussies outside of Doyle and Holder.

No Holder in the ELRC - replaced by Ellis. It does indeed look like his love affair with Poole has ended

You've heard the phrase "cheats never prosper". Wolves won the EL, Poole didn't QED!

Tai was brought in before the play-offs and he legitimately replaced a rider on a higher average - absolutely no issue with a team strengthening up in this way. Antonio on the other hand was signed to replace a long-term(?!?!?) injury victim who wasn't a long term injury victim and whose average was manipulated (not by Poole but they benefitted and are therefore complicit) so should never have been allowed!

I think he had the last laugh though when he won the EL for Wolves in heat 14.

I thought I was on AA Roadwatch for a minute or plane spotters anonymous

What exactly are you expecting? Season is over - what are you expecting them to be bothered about? Are you saying that Holder isn't passionate and doesn't bleed blue?

In your humble opinion. I think he is a great ambassador for speedway, does a lot for charity, a great speedway rider and a thoroughly nice chap (although I don't like his tattoos but I can live with that).

Yawn! Chomp! Chomp! Chomp!

Tai Woffinden - two times world champion and British - a great rider and I fully support him.

More than the Poole ringer did! Chomp! Chomp! Chomp!

Well done to Wolves - EL champions 2016. Bad luck BV who gave themselves too much to do after the first leg. Good that Woffy won it for them

BV topped the league and looking like Wolves have won the league!

BV needed a 5-1 there. The fat lady is clearing her throat! Still mathematically possible but with Lindgren and Woffy coming out, it looks like Wolves have both hands on the trophy. Well done to both teams.

Well done Richie Worrall
