Scunthorpe Scorpions 2016?


Recommended Posts

Dont have a problem with Scunthorpe taking advantage of a rule, or finding a loop hole and making it work in their favour. What I do find strange is the Scunthorpe promoter, as part of the management committee, cant see its not in the interests of PL speedway where you have a rider who can come in on a 7pt average yet cant average 3pts on his first true average.

 

Is the rider good enough for our PL.

They didn't find a loop hole they created it

So it's ok to use a 3 point foreign wobbler in Holub but Panthers can't use cook and stokes

nothing stopping you sign stokes is there?

 

Well technically it won't need changing for Karger and the like. Next season he'll come in on a 5.00 average but won't be a 'new' rider so his average will drop to 3.00 and the team can strengthen up!

 

Also Campton is on an assessed 5.00 at Workington, yet he isn't 'new' to the PL.

because he wasnt in workingtons 1 to 7 last year, holoub was, and so was lyager,, if karger and etheridge sign for the same team next year then they will get a true average.. holoub was classed as 7 for team building puroses, lyager would come in again on a 7 then drop when he has done the required meetings.

of course as we all know planning for a second season is pointless as regs can/will be changed again to suit......

Campton was in the 2014 Workington team so can't his average be carried from there or have the B.S.P.A' made a ruling against that happening as well

The rule book has no mention of what year a rider previously rode in or whether he's continually in the declaration or not. Campton's rolling average could be easily be calculated by using his 2014 figures.

Blooming heck just reading through all this has my head spinning. But now Holub is "officially" 3.00 and as much as I back Lyagers potential and value to the asset base. IF we really wanted to "zipper dee do dah" our way to the Premier League title SIGN Cook ! and we are talking a serous big hitter mmmmmmm

That would be fitting now wouldn't it, the very person who wants to block Panthers signing him signs him for his own team ?
