Wolverhampton 2016

Kyle rode at no.1 for Plymouth, at least towards the end of the season, and he finished as no.1 in their averages I believe.

He may have finished as number one in the Plymouth averages scottyfan, but he didn't ever ride at number one. He was the number 5.

Kyle finished 4th in the Plymouth averages on 6.84 (converted EL 4.10 :t: ) just in front of Todd Kurtz on 6.79. Fisher, Holder and Risager all ended higher and finished as the 3 heat leaders.

Friday nights were grim for Lakeside last year, Guests R Us due to double upping!

 

 

Far too many doubling up riders anyway.

 

If a rider can average over 7 in the Premier League they should not double up and either stay in the Premier or move up. Not good when you have riders as good as Cook Kennett or Stead doubling up

 

 

@sportbbcwm: SPEEDWAY: @WolvesSpeedway have signed Kyle Howarth and Max Clegg as their reserves for the 2016 Elite League season.

How is Howarth a reserve?

Tier 1 draft riders are British riders on Premier League converted averages.

 

Each team picks one of the 12 (some protected) so Wolves would have been second pick after Leicester with I presume Worrall Garrity and Newman protected.

 

 

The concern I feel is there will be a list of 24 heat leaders and each team is allowed to use three.

 

With riders like Lindgren 6.11 and Bjerre 5.76 on the list how will some teams get close to the limit as six riders at 6 is only 36 and with a number 7 being a 3.00 and most tier 1 riders around 4-5 it means the top 5 for most teams needs to be 33-34 points which is over 6.5 each on average.

 

 

If Wolverhampton bring in Lindgren 6.11 and the two new reserves 7.27 it leaves about 27 points for the last four and with one rumoured to be a under 6 and Andersson 5.50 possibly it leaves about 16 for the last two if whispers are true.

 

 

Doyle would have to be signed to get close to the limit so let's hope he isn't back at Poole with Holder and Andersen

Presumably thinking Howarth will go into the 1-5 after 4 meetings and replace some new foreigner that CVS has up his sleeve?!

Wolves have enough riders from this season that would/could replace Kyle at reserve.

 

When you think that this was supposed to be brought in to help British riders but how many foreign riders will potentially ride at reserve shows what a joke that was.

I'm pretty happy particularly with Howarth.

None of the British boys should be penalised. You won't get the Swedes and Poles neglecting there own!

It makes sense to beef up the senior reserves and can't see why the likes of Barker, Richie Worrall and Howarth shouldn't be included seeing as they missed out a fair chunk of EL chances this year.

 

People getting hard over certain riders being in Tier 1 seems strange to me. Let's look after our own!

Only fans of clubs that have had an unfair advantage at reserve in the last 2 seasons could be saying otherwise Steve😀😀
