Dave J Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Just found this article in todays Wilts and Gloucestershire Standard. http://www.wiltsglosstandard.co.uk/sport/12955733.SPEEDWAY__Will_Swindon_benefit_from_the_potential_musical_chairs_in_Elite_League_/?ref=rss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Where has it been said Hans is unhappy? He was unhappy in Poland but has sorted that out now (hopefully). So a happier Hans should see him scoring more for Coventry. Why would he want to go to Swindon while he's struggling where he can't be carried by the rest of the team so the fans will get on his back? At Coventry we can cover for him while he sorts himself out and looking at his scores this week he seems to be doing just that. Far greater chance of Swindon getting Darcy (or another Poole rider) in just over a months time. Or Bjarne has said he might come back to the EL - maybe he's the answer?!

If Bjarne is the answer, then it's a stupid question. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TesarRacing Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 What a load of rubbish. Hans scored 3+1 at Lakeside so I can't believe he is unhappy with the track preparation at Brandon, there is more going on I think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirates Of Poole Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 I am under the impression that Poole cannot track Ward, Magic and Chris as all over 7.00 points unless the rule changes half way through the season? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecoombdog Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Yeah its an article based on the sort of inside info that the Coventry stalker gets from Facebook pages. Absolute non story throughout. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 (edited) Haha more stirring as always. Hans himself has said he's loving riding for bees and with this team. It's his bikes that were letting him down. Can't see why he would leave a team top of the league & looking strong. Think slow news day and somebody clutching at straws as panicking as to what to do when Kildemand leaves.

I seem to remember it's only the "initial declaration" - technically any team could have redeclared after a meeting with 4 7 pointers (can't fit in 5 due tot he points limit) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCB Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 It also applies to a re-declared team unless it's like for like replacement. So it does, I missed the rule straight after the one that says initial declaration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirates Of Poole Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 So the long and short all teams can have as many 7+ riders as long as the they comply with the 34 team limit now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 So the long and short all teams can have as many 7+ riders as long as the they comply with the 34 team limit now? No. If a team redeclares ie changes more than one rider, then the new 1-5 must still be within 34 points and can still only have 2 riders more than 7 points. If only one change is being made then the new rider cannot have an average higher than the rider he replaces, but there could still be 2-3 other riders above 7 points. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck trying to fit Darcy in with only one change! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YerRopes Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Good luck trying to fit Darcy in with only one change! He'll be crap by his standards anyway, as he was before the ban, far better to stick with Magic - if he can be arsed of course.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with his bikes during guest appearances. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
