Yes but your rankings aren't official so they mean jack s**t, as you are the only one who knows how they work!!! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bash Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 No, I'm going by official green sheets not Barrow boy's own rankings which mean nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScotsman Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 They mean a lot when you understand how they are worked out. I like them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bash Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 Not to me they don't, I only go by official averages, but each to their own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Johnson Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) it does when you stand next to riders either at pit side or on the centre green and they tell you if that is fast or not Edited March 15, 2015 by neck brace tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemini Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Do Peterborough fans really want Adam to ride again? He's had so many injuries I just wish he'd call it a day now while he's still relatively in one piece. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenga Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 covering adams rides can be done by your 2 reserves , who if anything to go by from the first meeting will cover the r/r rides and prob get a few more points. simon l is going great at the moment . cant see it being a prob at home. imo.

jenga Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 but you didnt have simon at reserve. change at your peril. as i said before. welcome back at worky any time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScotsman Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 I think r/r for the number 5 puts far too much pressure/strain/reliance on the reserves if used for more than the occasional meeting. Especially away from home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 R/R is fine, certainly wont score anyless than a replacement IMO.... R/R at #2 is fine, as means Lambert takes 2 rides, Greenwood 1 ride and Blackbird in heat 8. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScotsman Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 It's fine as a short term. But reserves having to take a minimum of 5/6 rides plus any replacement rides puts a big strain if it goes on for a couple of months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Agreed, but if its only 4-6 weeks like quoted, then that's fine IMO. Injuries don't ever come at a good time BUT if you was to get injured, rather get injured this part of the season than the business end.
