Coventry 2017


Recommended Posts

That is why the top riders averages should have been capped at 12. 13.70 makes no sense and is the worst thing to come out of the AGM that was reasonably positive.

Danny King is riding for Kings Lynn next season I read somewhere and I maybe wrong but I cannot see Fricke and Garrity increasing or even maintaining there average in my opinion.

 

If a 13.41 is disproportionate for a rider then so is 50 for a team.

 

People are getting hung up on a rider being on an average he cannot sustain but the entire team is on an average it won't sustain barring a complete domination from one side.

 

Doyle and Holder's averages make just as much sense as anyone else's. They are too good for the PREMIER league and the averages indicate that.

 

That is why the top league points limit is so high.

 

The averages make complete sense and so does having Doyle in the Swindon side.

I saw a Danny King interview where he stated he had always wanted to ride at Coventry & phoned every close season for a possible team place . Is it definite he has joined the Stars ? If so my question is what has changed his mind . Anybody know ?

the official line currently is that Kings Lynn have purchased his registration but nowhere has it been confirmed he will actually line up for the Stars in 2017.

 

The purchase apparently took place some months ago (around the time of the British GP)

 

Of course given that it would seem logical that he rides there but stranger things have happened......

In a recent interview for Ipswich( the day before we were told on here that King had signed for King's Lynn) Danny says he would love to ride for Ipswich & Coventry again next year if rules allow it at the AGM.

Seems a strange thing to say if he had already signed for King's Lynn. Also no announcement anywhere of King's Lynn switching back to Wed nights either which they would have to do if he rides for them. If he's been signed for a month then why no announcement?

 

I guess we will see when either club announces their team.

I think some are getting confused on here.I haven't seen anything where King has signed for King's Lynn for the coming season.It's just that he is a King's Lynn asset.

Riders will say they what people want you to hear, there hardly going to say, I wouldnt ever ride for that team. They will keep there options open and keep everyone on side.

Don`t tell stevebrum. he thinks when a rider says they`ll only ride for Wolves they really mean it !

COVENTRY ?
1 Danny King 9.57
2 Kenneth Bjerre 8.22
3 Troy Batchelor 7.36
4 Rory Schlein 7.17
5 Hugh Skidmore 6.84
6 James Sarjeant 5.80
7 Josh Bates 5.02
Total 49.98

 

Have fun in the championship.. Just joking, Good team I would say Bjerre is you actual number 1 rider not King. But 3,4,5,6 all have major questions marks from injuries and poor gating(just sarge). 6.84 on skidmore when starke is available and other such riders.

That is true. Apparently it's between Hampel and KK for us. See what Hampel does and go from there. Hampel probs first choice has 1.2 points less on average compared to KK.

Only place I have seen that is on here and should take what is on here with a pinch of salt.

On twitter they seem to think your no 1 is Magic so is varies depending on where you look.

Would love it to be Magic but his average is 12.3 which is too high. Send the link please for that would like a look.

 

MJJ for Cov is that not an option to replace Harris???

Who are 'they' on twitter who think Magic is coming in?? Un less riders who didn't race UK last year are being reassessed differently (less?) than the 1.4 factor then I really can't see it!!
