Rolling Averages


Recommended Posts

I thought I knew how the averages worked but I am flummoxed by Holder and Iversens averages.I just thought I would look on the BSPA site because I thought Holder had a 9+ average,i was wrong.But I did see his average after he had finished his stint at Poole was 8.83 all the way through the different issues then on the final one his average dropped to 8.75,why?

With Iversen's average he got injured in the early to mid September and his average come 23rd September was issued at 8.77 for October so all the required matches were taken into account.So to me he would have no more matches to add to that average.But come the final issue his average jumped to 9.03.

Over to you SCB could you explain

Elite & Premier Leagues will now only use the last 20 League matches for 2015 updated Green Sheet calculations.

As has been in the past, I would expect the first Issue to implement any average changes will be for May.

(Apart from if there are any prior issued GSA's if Assessed/Converted average riders pass the 4H & 4A match criteria prior to the 21st April cut-off date.)

But I guess that looks unlikely in the space of just 4 weeks.

Interesting. I see quite a few rider having some pretty big jumps when the first set of average come out then!

 

And if My figures are right, that'll mean with bonus points Bomber will be EL number 1 :D

 

Will also see Dakota Norths average jump to 7.5 - I wonder if Matt has a 7.5 rider just waiting to sign as a replacement?

Looking at the new averages on the BSPA web-site, and the new rolling average now at 20 matches, sure makes a mockery of that 2 riders over 7 rule.

 

Surely these should have appeared before the teams were decided, not wait till the season started..............

Thought the same as poole will have 4 riders over 7 whilst Wolves will have none!

 

Worrying for Wolves as Freddie would be on a 5pt avg if needed guest and Kennett would become a heat leader for Lakeside.

 

New way of doing averages leaves teams open to manipulation in making changes, preferred 28match

Would that not suit certain Teams? :shock: :shock: :shock::blink:

In the past I have been critical that the full details have been kept secret so its a big thumbs up from me for the new info.

There has been a change to the Rolling Average criteria for 2015.

As of May 1st Issue, only 2014 and 2015 matches will count in the Rolling Averages (to a maximum of 20 matches).

Therefore, riders who had 2013 matches in their current RA will have them discounted.

This may mean that some riders will only have 2015 matches in their RA, and will therefore not have their current average updated until they have achieved the 4H & 4A benchmark.

Elite League Riders concerned include Stuart Robson & K Gomolski.

PL Riders include:-

BERWICK: Edberg
GLASGOW: Smith
IPSWICH: Nielsen
NEWCASTLE: Rosen, Henry
PETERBOROUGH: Palm Toft
PLYMOUTH: Fisher, Morris
RYE HOUSE: Aspegren, Mellgren
SCUNTHORPE: Davies
SHEFFIELD: Compton
This is not a definitive list, there may be others that I have missed.

Although these is provision for a new average to be applied even if the 4 home 4 away is not reached. Perhaps needs to be applied where there may be a re-declaration.

The new calculations have disappeared from the BSPA site - hope they come back soon. Wouldn't want it to seem like anything is being hidden to slide through any dodgy changes!! :o;)

Looking through the May 1st averages it appears to be only Alex Davies that has been awarded a new average of those assessed/converted/out of date despite not riding 4home 4away.

 

Is this correct or just a mistake?

 

Such a shame that the excellent new info on rolling averages has been removed frim the BSPA site.

It's almost certainly a mistake, as is Robbos 4 point average for Coventry.

So we appear to be on supplementary regulation 3.0 already after not much more than a month of the season!

 

Together with the figures being hidden again and the new rules not even being put in the public domain its a poor show.

 

Inconsistency and a lack of transparency yet again!

Why is Davies on a 20 match rolling average with 2013 matches included in his average? Seems speedway rules change daily.

So do 2013 meetings count now or not? Because they're not included in Danny Kings average. But they are in Freddie Lindgrens.

farcial really.

Should be all or none IMO.

I'm really confused :( Can somebody post an idiots guide to this years averages?

You're not alone! And in a word, no! :D in a little more than a word, we were todl that it's last 20 meetings but only meetings from '14 and '15 count. But for some unknown reason, despite the fact he has no ridden 9 meetings this season, Freddie Lindgren doesn't have a 2015 average but seems to have some mix of his old and new average!

Does anyone know how often EL averages will change for those with an established rolling average?

 

I vaguely recall reading that it won't be done every month, but possibly every 2 weeks for all teams or for each specific team after every 4 matches they ride.
