Are you suggesting that Matt was oh so tired on that memorable night in 2010 that he forgot to tell his minions to light those fireworks ? :D

No we run out of matches, and nobody in the Stadium had a lighter... :rofl: Anyway, why waste good fireworks, we made good use of them in 0-11 -13 14 15.. :rofl: We'l have to buy some more for next October... :party:

We now have our complement (two in the 1-5) of double-up riders for 2016.

 

Averages subject to confirmation:

 

Chris 7.34

Danny 6.48

Jason 5.08

Josh 3.26

James 3.00

Garrity signs!which I had guessed was the case based in this very subtle post earlier :)

My response was more aimed at the unpleasant tone of the original comment, but flavoured with the knowledge of what was to come...

Good news signing young Jason, I see much more to come in the future, real talent in my view. Thanks for your updates on here Neil, I don't think many other promoters dare to venture onto this forum, well not using their own name anyway. Now for the number one! I know you have been trying from what I hear.

It's great news Garrity has signed, but I think we're going to need two big hitters to turn this into a top 4 team.

Think Coventry have made the mistake of not starting with Garrity at reserve as they are going to struggle getting close to the limit and could have gone with a good second string to have dropped down once he got a new average but instead they have gone with quite a weak pairing at reserve.

 

 

Hans Andersen 6.45 was going to be a bargain next season and no suprise Poole saw that as their prime target and he will take some replacing as a heat leader while Daniel King 6.48 may have finished with a better average but will he be classed as a heat leader or a second string. There won't be many riders over a six average so I would have thought he had to be as he has to be in the top 20 riders in the league.

 

 

Harris 7.34, King 6.48, Garrity 5.29, Bates 3.45, Sarjeant 3.12 leaves just under 15 points and think they will get someone like Kasprzak 7.97 or Zengota 7.79 as their last heat leader and then maybe get Josh Grajczonek 6.00, Peter Karlsson 5.51 or Ricky Wells 5.91 in to finish the team a point under the limit.

Neil, can I put in a request for KK now please?

Can we NOT please!! It's okay for you and the two people who liked your post as you won't be there watching him every week. I will though and the thought of having KK back again is making me feel depressed. That goes for Davey Watt, Lewis Bridger, Troy Batchelor and Kenneth Bjerre as well but I suppose that doesn't leave many other options. :neutral:

Josh Bates is eligible for a 2 1/2% reduction on his starting average (2015SR 16.2.3.d).

Our line-up so far already contains two double-uppers.

As Jason was not part of the 2016 EDR system, it's no surprise that he won't line up at reserve for us in 2016 - it's certainly not a mistake on our part......

That's good news.

Neil, is King on the heatleader list or will he be a second string?

Danny is a heat-leader for 2016 team-building purposes.

don't know what average bridger is on; but while a top 5 of kj batch bjerrr watt bridger maybe a supporters nightmare it would also be one ofvthe strongest in the league

If I assume you mean KK, there's four heat-leaders in that list of 5. The five averages also total more than 34.5.

I presume Bridger is the 4th hl, with watt the only one not? And did say I didn't know bridgers average. The other 4 come in at about 28? I assumed Bridger was only about a 6 but must have been wide of the mark

Edit I see Bridger is 7.23. Almost unemployable on that
