Lioness Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 surely Ruml would be in need of a visa and therefore be a 7 as well?? You just beat me to that - I thought he would be a 7 as well, on two counts. one he is American and two did he not ride in the World Cup? I thought if you have ridden at that level its a 7 point average as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king junior Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 surely Ruml would be in need of a visa and therefore be a 7 as well?? I'll admit I have absolutely no idea. But you're probably right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadders Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Did someone mention Albin? Are things that bad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilali Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Albin wont be anywhere near. They are looking at a new 5pt European and that leaves 3.66 for the other reserve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catch Me If You Can Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 surely Ruml would be in need of a visa and therefore be a 7 as well?? Good luck to all teams in 2015 whoever you are. My work taking me abroad for 6 months so will miss it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 I think that unless there is something new about Jake Allen, for instance he has parent is British or a grandparent, the club have found him a Northumberland lass to marry, then they don't have any chance of getting him on a 5 point assessed average. If they have not got the lad on a 5 point average then one of the 6 riders has to go, and the one that is most likely to go will be Allen, and that is what I think will happen regarding the team as he is the one unknown.

Who else is out there though on that sort of average? I'd put him as one of the better options out there frankly for that reserve spot.

Shadders Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 I'm a little surprised that this item, recently on website and latest e-Newsletter, which seems progressive and a good idea for those with the black-and-gold in their hearts, hasn't attracted the scorn and bile we expect from the usual suspects: Your Bandits are launching a new VIP Club for the coming season, offering members privileged access to pits, infield and other benefits. For an annual membership fee of £20, VIP supporters will be afforded the opportunity to make a pits visit for a few heats during a meeting, and then spend a further couple of races viewing proceedings from the centre-green. Members will also be invited to make the presentation of a VIP award to the night's most-entertaining rider one week, and -- if they have kids who attend matches -- can nominate their young 'uns to be mascots. Further, VIPs will receive a 50% discount of tickets for dances, etc organised by the promotion, on certain nights they will receive a generous discount on merchandise from the Club Shop and on booking hospitality will be granted 10% discount if a full party (30+ visitors) is booked in. To join the VIP Club, contact Lani Rae on 07779-227535. Doesn't the supporters club offer most of that already? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd put him as one of the better options out there frankly for that reserve spot. When Allen goes they have 8.66 so if Albin came in on his average its unlikely he'd even be at reserve. Plus, hes absolutely rubbish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emilali Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Has Matt Wethers retired? No but his wife has apparently been approved Aus citizenship so it was thought likely they are Aussie bound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadders Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Edberg been in around 3 to 4 seasons averages 3.84 Albin one season 3.62 average. I'm no maths expert, but by those figures Edberg is better 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilali Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Edberg been in around 3 to 4 seasons averages 3.84 Albin one season 3.62 average. Edberg had some horrendous injuries and also didnt ride over here for a spell. Last season he when he returned he was more confident and in my opinion showed he can improve this year on a low ave. He has fantastic resources and rides good kit so I think he will. Albin is pants simple as. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albin is pants simple as. Returned with confidence on good kit and has a 3.82 average. Albin in his first season 3.62 average riding crap equipment seeing most tracks for the first time. I will admit that there are issues with Albin's riding gear and that what lets him down. But Edberg with his super rich Daddy backing him is no better.
