ajh Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 (edited) Apologies if there is a thread in place already but couldn't see one Just in case anyone missed it on the Workington v Redcar thread, Stemoc had kindly posted the lineup for the 4's: Group A Workington Sheffield Somerset Edinburgh Group B King's Lynn Newcastle Berwick Reading Personally pleased we've made it. I had my doubts after the Pairs debacle. Probably even more pleased to of avoided Group A as well. Edited July 8, 2008 by ajh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerblues Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 What an easy group for Sheffield.... On their home track with a pretty strong 4 in prospect I'll take Worky to win this, although most of that line-up could push for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajh Posted July 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 Pretty certain Lynn's 4 will be Doolan, Topinka, Tacey and Harrison. Some of the other teams lineups maybe harder to work out. Somerset and Edinburgh seem to have riders at heat leader one week and reserve the next Can't see any other winner than Workington, just hope the Stars make it through to the final and then see what happens from there.

Najjer Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 Somersets four is: 1/ Jason Doyle 2/ Emil Kramer 3/ Jordan Frampton 4/ Simon Walker. Full lineups are on the Somerset website if you go onto the News page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comebackkings Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Which group are Rye House in? The same one as Stoke, Mildenhall and Glasgow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadders Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 The same one as Stoke, Mildenhall and Glasgow. Hmmm..what was the criteria for entry, proximity to Derwent Park? That's the only reason I can imagine why Newcastle (top 4 average total 29.62 without bonus) are in instead of Rye House (30.37) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Hannibal Thomas Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 I'm sure that the Diamonds will be in on merit and to provide entertainment as looking at the rest of the line up just makes one yawn! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I'm sure they're there on merit, I'd just like it to be explained to me and a few others HOW? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screm Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Oh, I'm sure they're there on merit, I'd just like it to be explained to me and a few others HOW? Every sympathy for Rye House,probably the same crazy ruling that saw Topinka & Doolan not qualify for the pairs and the same crazy ruling that saw Berwick win the fours at Coventry and werent able to deffend their title the following year. Why cant we have qualifiers like we had a few years ago then theres no arguements,if you qualify then you deserve to be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadders Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Official statistics should prevail, the ones on Premier League Speedway are not official. I thought there must be a good reason why, it's because Chris Neath has dropped almost 2 points off his 2007 average, nice going Mr Big Stuff!!!

Lioness Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Hmmm..what was the criteria for entry, proximity to Derwent Park? That's the only reason I can imagine why Newcastle (top 4 average total 29.62 without bonus) are in instead of Rye House (30.37) According to the site, the qualifying criteria is the 7 highest average teams (top four riders only) up to and including Saturday 14th June plus one wild card. I make Newcastle the wild card from my own personal calcs - well they couldn't really make it Glasgow could they and they would probably have gone for the nearest local club who didn't qualify who would bring the biggest support I expect (thats what Golasgow did re the Pairs a couple of years ago) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Mon the Bandits. We agree,great to see the Bandits in a showcase meeting like this and theres no reason why we cant do very well.Id presume our four will be Rymel,Makovsky,Aarnio and Magosi,good looking team.
