Chris Mills Axed


Recommended Posts

i think a certain rider will be ok for thursday because he used to ride there.. then its up to him to really show us what we would miss.

 

chris mills guesting for newcastle today.. could be the 1 time he gets double figures...

But re-declare with whom, haven't heard any names yet?

 

Going to have to be pretty careful with this as I've read on here the talk of dropping another rider to get "two" better one's in, probably just talk but if that is on the cards then Comets are going to have to move PDQ to get something sorted for Thursday? :o

 

I'm pretty sure they will announce who, when they get official confirmation from the BSPA that the change(s) are OK.

Only rider i can guess you're assuming at is Simon Lambert. Which would just be like for like to replace Mills really.

 

Or it could be Koppe i suppose, best option I've seen so far from what's available!

Now that it has been publicly announced that they have let him go, surely it has to be re-declared for Thursday?

The Comets announced that they'd sacked James Wright, then couldn't sign Picsz, James rode in the next match and did quite well.

so you are saying Wells is 1 poor showing away from the chop.

If not then a double change upto a total of just over 10 pts

Wells has been less than impressive all season IMO, I would take anton Rosen over him any day and use the extra point to play with on a reserve

I think there will be another change along with Mills, probably will be Wells.

This would leave us 10.46 points left to be able to re-declare at 42.50, think the promotion may be looking to change the balance of the team with two 5 point or so riders, with us able to track one of them at reserve hence have a potential match winner there.

Wonder if Michael Palm-Toft could double up? I see his average is 4.92, seems to have impressed the Belle Vue fans. Can't see many clashes with there fixtures

MPT can't double up as BV already have 2 double uppers in their team, which is the limit. Or otherwise I'd have MPT in my fantasy teams everytime. :)

Can't have Palm-Toft as BV only allowed 2 riders to double-down

Why axe a 3pt rider when u can only bring the same in surely all the decent 3pt riders are signed,or is another change possible?

very true but some 3 point riders score more than others chris mills wasnt scoring 3 points very often thats the problem some 3 pointers sometimes can score 5 or 6 at home chris was running last places too often at home even in ht 2

Would not be surprised if Chris Mills ends up in a Diamonds race-suit for the rest of the season cos Dan Greenwood is well off the pace.

His average is 0.05 too high to replace Dan Greenwood. Could see him as a short-term replacement for Schramm though and when Chris is fit Danny King might have an actual average which may open doors for him to be retained.......

Dan is a good lad, who obviously thinks he is ready for PL racing, in 2013 he started the season in Dudleys main body NL Team, dropped down to reserve, then at the end of the season his average saw him back in the main body, so is he ready for the PL ?.
