semion Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 Thought the number 7 position was going to be shared or did I just imagine that ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 I think the move to Midenhall was all about the £'s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodgy Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 Thought the number 7 position was going to be shared or did I just imagine that ? Recall reading the plan was to share no 7 with Kyle Hughes - who then decided to give this season a miss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyderd Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 I really don't know what is expected from Holder by some fans his form was up snd down for Poole especially early in the season, Iversen is a far more consistent rider and Kings Lynn through and through anyone else isn' t going to be as consistent, that doesn't mean Holder won't get maximums at home though and he will get better as the season progresses. I don't think it is unreasonable to expect a top SGP,ex World champion who is still capable of winning SGP meetings, is still young (29) and very talented, to hit double points in our weakened league on a regular basis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trees Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 We have to support Chris, he will surely come good for the Stars, I noticed he scored "only" 7+1 from 5 in his Polish team's home loss yesterday. I've never followed how his seasons pan out particularly, him being a Pirate, but he can fill those NKI "scoring" boots if he "wants" ....

I've never followed how his seasons pan out particularly, him being a Pirate, but he can fill those NKI "scoring" boots if he "wants" ....Yes I'm sure the fans will give him time to bed in and come the end of the season I'm pretty sure that he will be in the top three of the league averages which I don't think you can expect any more from your number 1. I see Niels only scored 7 as well for Gorzow but with the standard of riders in that meeting 7 was probably a half tidy score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted April 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 I feel for Buster a little because he'll be between a rock and a hard place now with regards the track.2 home meetings done in good time with less track grading, what us fans were looking for plus an option of racing lines untampered with.Problem is and what we've end up with is that build up of dirt round the outside that adds nothing to the racing and the inside is a dust storm.So as fans, do we continue with the dust storm and swift meetings or a more regular track grade to bring dirt back down again?As bad as the racing has been over the last decade it was never as bad as the last (Belle Vue) meeting.

Trees Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 Regular grading and go to bed later, we can all stick a late night 😆 our track has always been graded regularly, after every race without fail in our Huggy days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrss Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 Can the Stars bring Max Clegg in to replace Josh Bailey or is his average to high? Nothing against Josh but I feel he is out of his depth especially away from home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waytogo28 Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 Indeed Holder can fill Iversen's scoring boots If he "wants" and there's the rub - does he want to? Is his motivation high enough re UK racing? Did he get too good a guaranteed per match package? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing against Josh but I feel he is out of his depth especially away from home. Depends how many points you have to play with and what Clegg's new average is. At present he is 4.34. Bailey is 2.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey is 2.00 Clegg is clearly now not going to meet the criteria for a new average. So presumably he will stay at 4.34 or alternatively he could become a 2 (minimum possible average, he is averaging below this) which would permit a like for like swap with Bailey. Stars currently looking like they will have a couple of spare points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stars currently looking like they will have a couple of spare points I'm sure I read that David Howes average will be around 4.5 after the new averages good signing on that average 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waiheke1 Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 4.8If it is correct that no multiplier is applied. Surely the bspa can't be that thick though... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starman2006 Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 Now i have heard it all . Be honest. I dont think he's interested in riding here, and i really don't blame him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trees Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 We'll see ...... never seen him ride Lynn so good as at the end of last season .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
