Woz01 Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 Not as one of his 1-7 though. He wanted him as a 8th rider who could guest if needed I did say squad. Matt Ford isnt stupid though, he'd have wanted the best option possible if this number 8 option is implemented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 The squad proposal is for an 'untried foreign rider' to be used as cover for any of the 2-5 positions. Kacper Woryna was certainly on Poole's radar as I said at the time Coventry signed him!! The other squad proposal is for each EL club to 'sign' a 2nd Tier 2 reserve to cover for reserve absences' The no 1 heat leader position would still be covered by a guest if required.

wealdstone Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 Despite assurances from the Supremo and an unknown quango, I am not one of the filthy rich pensioners and will not be able to afford to come to Coventry meetings this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woz01 Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 Bees v Kings Lynn originally 8th April moved to the 11th, I'm guessing for Sky coverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 With this new no8 position being introduced and it can be a foreigner. Could Kacsper Woryna be moved to 8 (that's what Ford was going to do with him) and we get another rider in the main team? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont think us having a number 8 is much of an issue as we get priority on King and Garrity anyway. Unless Woryna misses a few for domestic u21 commitments?

Most absences are due to injury not fixture clashes. It would be very optimistic to imagine that they will not crop up at some point during the season, so making provision for a number 8 still seems like a wise precaution.

I agree with that to be fair but if there was injuries where they'd miss several matches id suggest clubs would bring in a rider to replace.

mdmc82 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Great news that Brandon with host the Elite League riders championship in October this year. This will likely be the last meeting ever at Brandon Stadium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaColette Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 The ELRC is nothing but a pain in the bum IMO!! Feel sorry for anyone staging it, if it's not the weather being a problem, then it's riders dropping out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 ELRC should be run at the start of the season, not when MOST are going away for the winter, or the general I cant be assed anymore. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dornier Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 (edited) ELRC should be run at the start of the season, not when MOST are going away for the winter, or the general I cant be assed anymore.Sorry don`t agree ! It should be run at the end of the season as it used to be in the good old Belle Vue days...In my opinion those were the BEST days of the League Riders Championship. Who wants to see a League Riders purely used as a warm up and testing of machinery meeting ? Edited February 21, 2016 by dornier 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who wants to see a League Riders purely used as a warm up and testing of machinery meeting ? The ELRC has become a pointless meeting, would anyone miss it these days ? It used to be one of the biggest meetings of the domestic season with the atmosphere of a mini World Final, but not anymore... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
