Newcastle Diamonds Vs Berwick Bandits Pl 8.5.16 6.30pm


Recommended Posts

Even on his best day Jorgensen ain't a number 1. It was foolish not to have one in place at the start of the season

 

Berwick did have a No 1 in place at the start. His name is Sebastian Alden, but he has been required to start on an assessed average, which has not yet changed, unlike the other riders in the squad.

 

To suggest Thomas Jorgensen should be released is idiocy.

Serious question about TJ - I ve only seen him at Newcastle and Berwick and unless my memory is failing me I don't think I've ever seen him tear the track up; certainly not at Brough. Is it just that he can't get on with the track st Newcastle? I wish him well - certainly he mustn't become a latter-day Claus Kristensen.

TJ had a good season last year was decent at most away tracks.think he has hD a troublesome shoulder for a couple of seasons which he had operated on during close season.

Are you saying that Seb did not start the season with his Old Pl average.? Don't really see what ou mean has he started the season on lower average than he previously had

They could be far worse yes but they could also be far better.

 

Only two home wins this season and against probably the two worst teams in the league and after a fantastic away win at Edinburgh the wheels have started to come off.

 

We should be doing better at home, I never expected us to pick up any points last night but we should have taken all 3 on Saturday from the position we were in and while we continue to struggle in the big heats Jorgensens failings this season are going to be talked about.

 

One of those home wins against Newcastle, who I think we all can agree are a pretty decent team, and a draw against Glasgow wasn't to shabby, the defeat against Edinburgh was disappointing especially after winning at Armadale.

What I'm saying is that, because he did not contest PL racing in 2015, Seb returned to an average assesed (by whatever formula) as 7.37 The same is true for Charlie Gjedde (ha!) at Plymouth and indeed Henning Bager.

 

This has kept Seb on that average in May because he had not raced 4 home, 4 away official matches before the cut-off date of April 20th.

 

Thus, while everyone else's average changed slightly from May 1st, (and will change again on June 1st) Seb's is pegged at 7.37 until seven days after his 4th away match on May 28th, weather permitting.

 

By which time he will have achieved a 'proper' average again -- which may (or may not) advance him to No 1.

Think you will find Seb returned on his 2013 average which was with Berwick (it is an assessed one ).so on paper it was his average,he was not No1as TJ is higher,so It is only your opinion he was signed as a No1.he probably will top Berwick averages the season though IMO . Edited by Fromafar
