Woz01 Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 Thanks for the link. I seriously don't recall that being announced! Horton announced it at a Q&A session but no statement on website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 Horton announced it at a Q&A session but no statement on website. I find that really odd! ! He is a squad member but not officially announced. Bizarre! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CB252 Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 I find that really odd! ! He is a squad member but not officially announced. Bizarre! Given the collective groan that was let out at the Q & A session when the news was announced, I'm not surprised at all! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieE Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Good signing for the Lions. Many will say Summers isn't a heatleader but I think he can hold that role down. It's a shame the Bees already had two double uppers signed as I would definitely have taken Summers at Coventry, even on that average.

arnieg Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 From Monday Aaron Summers is number one in Leicester averages (but only no 2 for his Premier League team!) And Paul Starke will be in top five at the expense of Klindt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrow boy Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 So Auty has a season at reserve? I don't think so. One FTR must always be a reserve but it might change each time new averages come out. It is always to be the lowest averaging FTR which rides as a reserve. I think? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil The Ace Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 I thought the no7. (Second FTR pick) always stayed at reserve and the no1 pick can move up and down. Could be wrong though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One FTR must always be a reserve but it might change each time new averages come out. It is always to be the lowest averaging FTR which rides as a reserve. I think? Correct. Only the highest averaged FTR can move up at any one time, but it can be either reserve. With averages changing every 4 matches this is likely to see a switch in rider movement. I thought the no7. (Second FTR pick) always stayed at reserve and the no1 pick can move up and down. Could be wrong though No, not anymore Phil,it's either now.

Mr Bump Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 Blimey. Has a simple thing like speedway always been this complicated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Hunter Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 Reading the comments about the alterations to bends 3 & 4 on various meeting threads it seems the general opinion is that there has been some improvement in the racing but we will not see the full benefit until bends 1 & 2 are done. I seem to remember that there was some suggestion earlier in the year that 1 & 2 could be done when there was a SGP or World Cup break. Does anyone know if there is a possibility that 1 & 2 will be done during the season or will they have to wait until next Autumn/Winter?
