Alan_Jones Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) There was a 2-3 year period, nearly 10 years ago now where each team was allowed one Commonwealth rider on a five point NL average. That was stopped, so BWD shouldn't have been allowed in on a five point average, he's either a three point Brit or a New Zealander and not eligible as far as NL is concerned. That's in the past now anyway and it's happened, doesn't make it right though. As I keep having to explain, under the current regulations he is a New Zealander with patriality as allowed in the regulations. Also, under the current regulations, any NL rider moving into the NL for the first time does so on a 3 point average. If they've changed the regulations for next season then so be it, but if they've just picked out BWD because he's a bit good then it's totally unfair. The only riders in the past that have gone from NL to PL on a 5 point average were Aussies without patriality when they were allowed in the NL, like Darcy Ward. Under the current regs riders like Aaron Summers, Dakota North, Nick Morris, Todd Kurtz, Cam Heeps started in the PL as 3s.

If he has patriality then he shouldn't have been assessed on a five in the NL but come in on a three, something which then should carry over to the PL.

Halifaxtiger Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 If he has patriality then he shouldn't have been assessed on a five in the NL but come in on a three, something which then should carry over to the PL. According to NL Regulations, riders coming in using the partiality rule are a 5.00. Because Wilson-Dean could ride in the NL, his PL average is a 3.00.

Halifaxtiger Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) I hope it's Scunthorpe as he's a delight to watch! But I guess Somerset or Plymouth again is more likely. I have never seen anyone ride Buxton like he did - it was extraordinary. Morley tried the same thing and fell off. Tom Perry is at Plymouth.

pitgate52 Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) Tom Perry is at Peterborough not Plymouth. Edited November 13, 2015 by pitgate52 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebaron Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) Mmm never said BWD and Adam Ellis were 3ptrs but point taken. Exactley it should have been dealt with in 2015. BWD cannot suddenly change status giving him a higher ave than Adam Ellis in the PL when the reverse applied in the NL. Farce. I get averages and there is some merit but when they are manipulated or actually keep riders off the track for 0.01 of a point or something then that is anti speedway. I am on the same page as new BSPA Chair Buster Chapman "four laps four riders turn left" Lets go racing !

thebaron Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 Teams are filling up fast; no one picked up Zach Wajtknecht on 3pts and he's the one for me. But I reckon our 3ptr will be the last to be revealed. Tomorrow I'm going for Ryan to complete our Australian "Holy Trinity" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
