teaboy279 Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 David Speight was a big suprised for me, prepared to ride the dirt line and was very quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayne Posted July 6, 2016 Report Share Posted July 6, 2016 They've signed Lee Dicken haven't they? Don't think it was to replace Greenwood though It wasn't. Lee was to replace Jade although his average is higher than Ollie's. We didn't know anything about Ollie quitting until after the meeting at Kent.

Ommer Mon Posted July 6, 2016 Report Share Posted July 6, 2016 Crikey Jayne  What a headache with two top riders quitting suddenly.  Hope you can sort a replacement or the powers that be agree that you can use guests until you are sorted.

Brummie Kev Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 (edited) Richard Hall  If Buxton were to sign Richard Hall then do you reckon all the people that said he shouldn't ride in the National League change their tune, including a current NL promoter who has an axe to grind with the Brummies and Graham Drury?  I personally wouldn't have any issues, hes out of work and would be a good signing for Buxton if his 2004 CL average fits Edited July 7, 2016 by Brummie Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does make me laugh that we have a sport that thinks it's ok to go that far back to get meaningful averages....bit like going back to have fast Mark Spitz did his length at school to see were he would race now. If Richard is good enough and will not beat the other lads by a mile then, yes let him loose. Good racing is what the public, that Joe in my case, want and equal standard riders in races. Richard I expect is still a good racer and a place should be found somewhere for him, just the right place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS50 Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 Just worked it out that according to BSPA averages, Buxton's total is 20.90 (excluding Greenwood/Mudgway). Not sure how many Dicken will come in at, or what the limit is, but should allow a high average rider for the vacancy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how many Dicken will come in at, or what the limit is, but should allow a high average rider for the vacancy still limited as all possible NL number 1s are now signed up to PL teams and you cannot now sign for NL unless you break that contract.

Alex2000 Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 How about the spiller brothers. don't quote me but I don't think Daniel will come over this season as he's just started a work experience for his further education in October. And if Daniel isn't I don't think Ethan will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurnTwo Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 if Buxton want to get away from that bottom position I'd change the whole team: Â 1. Hughes 8.67 2. Bates 4.82 3. Blacklock 5.73 4. Neale 4.85 5. Greenwood 8.25 6. Sam Woods 3.27 7. Burton 4.24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
