Lord Antebellum Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 By all accounts, Matej Kus was very unlucky not to score more last night. Giving Ben Barker the 5-1 treatment with Matty W in Heat 10 until they got a bit mixed up on last lap, Matej was hung out to dry a bit, and Barker nipped into 2nd. Much the same in Heat 12, he held a 5-1 with Steen until Kalle K produced an amazing outside blast on the third lap to get a good 2nd. Matej Kus scored 5+1 last night -- it could easily, on a luckier night, have been paid ten. Also, Liam Carr's three points made the difference -- again -- between the team getting four or three league points. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OML Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 He's been going well abroad for a couple of years now, surprising there hasn't been any interest over here. Wouldn't be surprised if there is. He's had 6-7 offers of a team place (including Redcar several times) since he last rode over here but has turned them down. Be interesting to see how he goes next week. Rates Berwick among his least favourite tracks so it will be a good test of where he's at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellers101 Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Yes Kus is a worse rider but I'd prefer Kus to Hall in my team everyday. As I said what Hall done was unforgivable IMO. I suppose there was that dude who threw his bike at Kenni Larsen, he rode for Redcar at some point didn't he? NO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foamfence Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 It's not surprising he's starting to pick up now at a place where he feels happy and is enjoying things again! So how come his average is falling, when he's riding at the track where he has always performed at his best? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note I said starting to pick up.. The whole rolling averages have an impact on things but his scores have definitely improved for this season! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Note I said starting to pick up..

bigeddiechek Posted May 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Even with rolling averages, if your scores go up your average will too! Surely it depends on what is dropping off at the other end of the scores, i.e. what the sum of the set is? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Najjer Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Surely it depends on what is dropping off at the other end of the scores, i.e. what the sum of the set is? At the same time, if your scores have gone up it's irrelevant what is being dropped off, as they must be lower than what's being scored now.

bigeddiechek Posted June 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 At the same time, if your scores have gone up it's irrelevant what is being dropped off, as they must be lower than what's being scored now. Here's an illustration (I'm not sure how many drop off, or how many come in, but it should explain the point): 4 scores drop off of 8, 7, 7, 6 = 28 Scores in the middle are not as good Form starts to pick up 4 latest scores come in of 6, 6, 7, 8 = 27 So, recent results are improving (based on everything in between), but the rolling average would still drop. It's the sum of the set of scores that are crucial. Another way to think of it. Plot the scores on a bar chart. If the scores are a smiley shape with a slight grin to the left, then the rolling average will decrease; if it has a grin to the right, it will increase. Sunday morning! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigeddiechek Posted June 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 (edited) His average would still drop which is th point that is being made. I think Sarah made the original point that his scores were improving recently, no reference to his average.
