Newcastle Drop Rosen....


Recommended Posts

6.71/0.6 = 11.18 If this is correct! Will have points to play with after he gets new average but will there be enough matches left,too much of a risk IMO.

When Lambert gets a proper average would we be able to swap him for Schramm and still get the 3.00 now

 

Then the team would look like

 

1. Danny King

2. Robert Lambert

3. Stuart Robson

4. Lewis Kerr

5. Ludvig Lindgren

6. Lewis Rose

7. 3.00

 

:o All I can say is that is one of the strongest teams I have seen.

Err but if Lambert gets a proper average the PL conversion would be about a 9.

 

You want to swap Schramm for a 9 pointer??

I'd swap Schramm for a toaster and a cutlery set

surely a figure that he would outscore wouldnt be reasonable. A figure he woukd match would be reasonable!!

 

All irrelevant anyway as he wont be able to double up whatever his average if the regs are applied.

only two double-uperers,,, end ov !!!

unless,,, Kings Lynn drop one of them,,, mmm

As bigcatdiary has already pointed out the reason he wasn't allowed to double up is in rule 17.4.1.

No Elite League Club can have more than 2 doubling up riders, and as Kerr, and Rose are already doubling up, that rules any other Kings Lynn riders from doing so. (although there is also the issue regarding the assessed average.)

As Danny King pointed out in his interview in this weeks Speedway Star, his average was low enough to double up, but he was unable to as Ben Barker, and Edward Kennett were using up Birmingham's quota. (Until Kennett was replaced)

So if that is true, how did Belle Vue start the season with Cook, Worrall and Reade all in their side and all doubling-up with Edinburgh, Ipswich and Plymouth respectively?

 

Or does this rule only count for top 5 EL riders and not the fast-track reserves? In which case King's Lynn & Newcastle are not breaking any rules.

thats not true... Fast track riders don't count towards doubling up quota

Thought so and I can't believe such experienced promotions would miss such an obvious rule. This must be down to a technicality on assessed averages.

I thought that R Lambert bypassed riding in both the PL or NL because he thought that he was good enough to go straight into the EL without needing the experience from either of the lower leagues. Has he changed his mind? It seems that he's changed his mind about riding for GB...

He really doesn't get the principal of how it work

When he gets a proper EL average it will be a 3.00 probably.

 

3.00 converted to a PL average is about 5.00. (correct me if I'm wrong with all of this)

 

What I'm saying is if we could swap Schramm on 4.00 for Lambert on a 5.00 it'd be a bargain.

so really,,, as R Lambert would be a new PL rider, his criteria should allow him to come in on a 3 pt ave ???

he has'nt actually got an EL ave, (yet),,, so why can't he be signed before he has ???

That's my thinking as well, I'M SO CONFUSED WITH ALL THESE RULES!!! :mad:

His average will be over 5 which when converted will rule him out although there appears to be some rule whereby he can't double down regardless because he doesn't have a true PL average or something like that. Crazy.
