Coventry 99 % Certain To Be In Elite Next Season Acording To Sandu


Recommended Posts

So you would consider comparing someone to Steve Shovlar is a smear ? what does that say about shovlar .

You are not dealing with the facts again.

 

I did not say that, it was obviously intended by you as a smear and that was my point, nothing to do with whether it was a valid comment. I agree with Steve on some issues and not others, pretty much the same as I do with a lot of posters.

Ok, I give up, there's no point if those who have a different view can't even try to put forward a reasoned argument to support what they say.

 

You could just say that you have re-read it and I am right, there is no embarassement in admitting you might be wrong occasionally.

....except Grachan has already proved that in theory it's best to have seven riders of equal ability (i.e. 7 x 5.71).

 

 

All Grachan has proved (and so has SCB come to that) is that looking at composite averages in isolation is meaningless when assessing team strengths.

You have to look at the home and away averages as separate entities but take them both into account when team building. A rider who averages 5.72 at home and 5.70 away is in no sense comparable to one who averages 7,72 at home and 3.72 away.

If your No 3 and No 4 both average 5.72 the chances are that one or other has scored a lot of bonus points team riding the other one home.

A riders average is a loose guide to his ability, nothing more.

 

Come to think of it, there's no point in signing a No1 on an 8.39 average if he only scores 4 in the play-off final. Might as well sign a 4-point Polesmile.gif

Well I laughed anyway.

They also stick together in a swarm following a 'leader' who takes them to their hives

 

Funny I've never really understood the relevance of the nickname before...but this winter has really explained a lot! :lol:

It was nice to stick to the facts for a while, wasn't it?

 

The simple truth is that, short of a FoI request (which would probably be turned down on commercial confidentiality) we'll never know what Kings Lynn were offered to come up. However, it's a very naive person who thinks they got the same deal as everyone else. And it's fun to speculate.

 

I've had a few to's and fro's with Aces51 on here in the past few days, and he's fair-minded and willing to agree to disagree. This puts him leagues above certain others of a lupine or privateering persuasion.

 

What I really want to know is when is Shovlar off to Barbados? Or is it a moveable feast, ie when the BSPA announce Coventry's return for 2011? :)

That'd be crap. Do you know how I'd beat that team?

My top 6 would not drop a point would they? They'd beat everyone of your riders. My number 7 wouldn't beat anyone, but he'd only have 3 rides s I'd have three last and a load of wins and pair wins. My team would win 69-21 or 69-23 if you use a TR, but, I'd stop you using a succesful TR, I'd put my number 7 in heats 1, 2 and 4 and then replace my number 7 with my number 6 in his programmed rides :P

 

I'd be a point below the limit and would beat Grachans team 69-21, based on my stronger 1,2 and 6 (plus 3,4 and 5).

 

 

Quite right...........I did point out to Grachan that:

 

6.17

6.17

6.17

6.17

6.16

...would beat his team & yours. :D

1577 Posts of drivel latter, and the beat goes on. Still, in a couple of weeks time you'l definately have some thing to talk about. And you never know it might just make a record for a thread!!! :D

Eh, it passes the time. And there have been a few genuinely good points made, in between everything else.

Off on Thursday. All packed and now looking forward to a nice holiday in the sun with my family. :approve:

 

And for your information I would welcome Coventry and Peterborrough back no problem, as long as its under the same rules of the other 8 EL clubs.

The KL fans have been told that they are making the move up at their own expense, along with other fees paid to every EL club by SKY and of course sponsorship.

 

The KL fans trust in the KL promotion, unless of course you can prove otherwise, they have to take the promotion at their word.

The thing is while everyone else can see there's not a problem, all certain Coventry fans can see is that it's one huge conspiracy against them. :lol:

 

Sandhu is god and Trump is the best promoter out there in their eyes. :lol:
