Skidder1 Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 I hope THJ is in the side, A SGP standard rider on a 5.69 average. Push the boat out Matt! He would be reassessed at 8 points as a GP rider!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LagutaRacingFan Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 He would be reassessed at 8 points as a GP rider!!! I don't think he would, he achieved his average in 2013 so It can't be claimed that he was a different rider when he achieved his EL average. He's ridden in the EL in a lot of the past few seasons so his current average is the correct one in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 (edited) He would be reassessed at 8 points as a GP rider!!! As he should. He should get the same re-grading as AJ should. He has ridden the odd meeting or 2 in the past few seasons when its suits him so clearly qualifies for a re-grading. Plus no one would take a chance on THJ on an assessed 8. He simply isn't good enough. Edited November 20, 2014 by stevebrum 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THJ will do no better than Freddie managed over the whole GP season because he isn't good enough.

foreverblue Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 He would be reassessed at 8 points as a GP rider!!!Dont see why he should be re assessed as he has achieved that average over a reasonable period of time and it is his level, the fact he is in the gp's should have no bearing on it or re asess all riders who are in gp's on a lower than 8 average 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skidder1 Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Poole Co-Promoter Gordon Pairman elected to the SCB in place of BSPA Vice Chair, Chris Van Stratten! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Poole Co-Promoter Gordon Pairman elected to the SCB in place of BSPA Vice Chair, Chris Van Stratten! Shock of all shocks. I don't get why they had to announce CVS first and go along with that for a week. We all knew this last week! I even posted as much on here but amazingly my post seems to have gone it might have even been in a discussion with you, someone said Matt Ford and I said not quite but someone quite close.

Quite a different thing. I wonder why Pairman's appointment was missed from the BSPA's press release, much of which was attributed to CVS 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But SCB(the poster) was almost correct. Not everyone knew about it, but quite a few did!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder why Pairman's appointment was missed from the BSPA's press release, much of which was attributed to CVS To most people, "not a million miles away" means "quite close". Point is, I knew last week it was Pairman, so did others. Assumed there had been a change when CVS was announced.

Assumed there had been a change when CVS was announced. No, the point is that your prediction was relating to who would take Jon Cook's position on the Management Comittee. I think most of us guessed that your "not a million miles away" meant Pairman. And, quite simply, you were wrong. Your post hasn't disappeared - it's in BSPA meeting thread on 15 November. On the discussion about the Vice Chairman's job, Skidder 1 said "From a mischievous point of view, I would love it if Matt Ford were to be voted in as Vice Chair again - if only to watch this forum go into meltdown !!!" and you replied "it won't be Matt but someone not a million miles away, surely?" You then tried to cover up your error by saying: Shock of all shocks. I don't get why they had to announce CVS first and go along with that for a week. We all knew this last week! I even posted as much on here but amazingly my post seems to have gone it might have even been in a discussion with you, someone said Matt Ford and I said not quite but someone quite close It doesn't matter when you found out about Pairman going onto SCB - I don't suppose it was meant to be a big secret - the point is that, on 15 November, before any of the appointments had been released, you predicted he would be on MC and he's not.
