Scott0311 Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 Looking at the last EDR list it does state "a Tier 1 EDR can be replaced by any rider on the list that is below them OR any PL British rider that has a lower PL average than the missing rider, apart from any PL rider that is in a declared EL 1-5." Based on the latest PL Greensheets Kyle has an average of 6.84 and Robbo's is 6.50 so appears to be legal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted April 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 Looking at the last EDR list it does state "a Tier 1 EDR can be replaced by any rider on the list that is below them OR any PL British rider that has a lower PL average than the missing rider, apart from any PL rider that is in a declared EL 1-5." Based on the latest PL Greensheets Kyle has an average of 6.84 and Robbo's is 6.50 so appears to be legal. The thing is, the EDR list isn't the 2016 regulations though. The regulations state:- FACILITIES a) Absent Rider (1-3) G or ARR Absent Rider (4 or 5) ARR only c) Absent Riders (both 4 and 5) ARR and G d) Absent #6 (if an EDR) G (EDR* only) e) Absent #6 (if not an EDR) G f) Absent #7 G (EDR* only) g) “No Facility” for Absent 1-5 PL G (PL MA of 6.00 or less) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 If they were to put him on the list he should be graded higher,like Howarth was graded higher than Worrall and Kerr even though they had higher PL averages. You can't just add riders to a list that are a better standard than those on it already, that's just abuse of rule. Add him as a rider who can guest for let's say the top 5 tier 1's. But at 39 he should NOT be on the list anyway that make it a total joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 (edited) Poole have lost both their away meetings so far this season so will be a bit concerned about it happening again. Robson should make them a bit stronger. Edited April 25, 2016 by mdmc82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robson should make them a bit stronger. Robson makes them million times stronger around King's Lynn. Poole fans saying otherwise are just trying to justify the blatant rule manipulation yet again 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Smith Posted April 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 And now they have pedalo replacing D Watt, but not sure what date that applies from. Don't have a problem with that as the averages fit. The workings of the reserve rule is a different matter as Poole are using something that isn't in the 2016 regulations 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tellboy Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 You can't just add riders to a list that are a better standard than those on it already, that's just abuse of rule. Add him as a rider who can guest for let's say the top 5 tier 1's. But at 39 he should NOT be on the list anyway that make it a total joke. I totally agree with that. Regulation 17.6 on the SCB website states. The Speedway Regulations 17.6 FACILITIES a) Absent Rider (1-3) G or ARR Absent Rider (4 or 5) ARR only c) Absent Riders (both 4 and 5) ARR and G d) Absent #6 (if an EDR) G (EDR* only) e) Absent #6 (if not an EDR) G f) Absent #7 G (EDR* only) g) “No Facility” for Absent 1-5 PL G (PL MA of 6.00 or less) NB. *An EDR may guest for the same Team on a maximum of 4 occasions. Now on the EDR list it states it is in accordance with rule 17.6 from the regulations.I thought "in accordance with" meant the same as,equal to etc.Personally I see Robson not being allowed to guest as per rule 17.6 despite what is says on the EDR list. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 More Poole rules. Robbos not an EDR and he has a higher EL average. Still, they're on a roll with their made up rules. It's still not been explained how they got a guest for Holder at Brandon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets hope as many EL clubs close as possible (Coventry Swindon currently a concern) so that will properly screw up your arrogant mob with no clubs to race Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Smith Posted April 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 Ask the BSPA. They make the rules....not Matt Ford. The rules are clear, Matt's making up the reserve rules as we speak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A ORLOV Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 Unless I have got this wrong I cannot see a fast track list listed for April, the last one listed on the bspa site is at the end of issue 5 for the EL with the period 1.3.16 - 31.3.16 for the FTR list. Maybe the April list is being kept quiet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starman2006 Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 Stuart Robson was good at Berwick on Sat, sounds like Poole are cheating again but still think 48-42. Sounds like, but you not sure. You'l just row in with the crowd... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
