Newcastle 2017

[Arson fire]

Mr. Lindgren scored a double 15 point maximum guesting for the monarchs at Armadiddle last season so obviously at least a 2 track pony.

was figure of speech... he goes well there normally, remember him beating cook!! Goes well at Redcar mostly aswell....But then he will get beat of the likes of sissis and williamson...

 

One was 9 point max wernt it??

[ruffdiamond]

Can I put a vote in for him to stay at Newcastle (just to ensure he doesnt end up at Ipswich)

 

he'll hope he don't end there,,, you's are a right fickle lot

[Flappy]

Kus to join Ged at Panthers?

[TheScotsman]

That's being picky!

 

It would have been a 5 ride max if the meeting had gone on long enough!

[Bagpuss]

Has Robert not signed for a Polish team?

[soupy]

I am undecided but I know he does a lot of work behind the scene which a lot of the times it goes unnoticed.If he stays I will still support him and rhe team and for me it is just a no.

[dontforgetthefueltapsbruv]

I hope not

[Tsunami]

Has Robert not signed for a Polish team?

Apparently has signed for a second level team Lublin ?, but no confirmation of what night he would be riding. Ironic that the pressure on British Speedway to race on one night, and now Poland and their TV seem it's OK to ride on any night to suit the Tele.

I hope not

So do I as he'd be at number 1.

[boomerang]

I don't want him back, personally think he's reached his level and is as good as he's going to get

totally agree with you wells for lindgren its a no brainer wells good home and away

Really? Lindgren had a higher PL average than Wells last year (8.5 v 8.3). Their away averages were very similar - Wells 6.8, Lindgren 6.7.

 

Hardly the statistical evidence to say that Wells is a much better rider. And as for Lindgren having reached his level, he put over half a point on his GS average last year. Wells' average dropped by nearly a point.

I'd say its a very tough choice overall, Lindgren had a good year last year but not sure if he would kick on, Wells is a bit same old for the past couple of seasons, good at derwent, armadump, owlerton and the odd other one here and there, if he gates hes good if he doesn't he isn't.

Would agree with that. Wells is a good rider at this level and I wouldn't be against signing him but as ever people are being unfair on Ludde. The stats from last year don't back up the argument that Wells would be a much better signing. Can't be any argument that Lindgren is better to watch.

[Shearer09]

Lindgren the captian that's when you lead a side or a group he is dyer away from home as were his scores when it counted you need a leader and we will have one in a 18 year old head and shoulders this kid!!

If you look at LL his averages from 2013 onwards are as follows 7.28,7.12,7.05,7.69

 

Compare that to RW 7.81,6.49,8.86,7.92 it's quite clear who's the better rider RW apart from one poor year his average has always been upwards of 7.50 whereas LL his average stays pretty much the same old so I would say LL has reached his peak. He'll be a very good second string but a poor heat leader imo

How do those figures make it 'quite clear'? Wells had one standout year but one dreadful year. The other two, there is very little in it. Those figures are also rolling GSA's. As I mentioned earlier, Lindgren had a higher actual average last season.

Wells is always generally pushing a 8 point average whereas LL is usually low 7, that makes Wells better surely? I get what you say though last season was LL most consistent season so credit for that. It doesn't matter if LL had the higher actual average does it because the rolling ones are the ones used for team building.
