keef robin Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 The signing of Bellego was a great one so far. I think many people were a bit baffled by it, particularly as his average was almost identical to Justin Sedgman's, but Rosco had clearly done his homework and decided he was someone he wanted for a reason. The top end strength will, unfortunately, make it very difficult to make changes lower down the order and our scores this year will probably make us pretty close to the new points limit as we've had mainly close matches. The Flying Frenchman is proud to ride for the club, always give his all, unlike some Premier riders. Sharing a house with Morra helps them both. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anzum Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 Good result for the Sprockets 43-47 win. Zach on fire coming from the back twice. Shame Lakeside away on the Island next week when the Sprockets face Plymouth. I assume Lakeside will have priority over him and Mason/ Bowtell.

Sidney the robin Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 If Swindon did make a change at reserve how many points have we to play with.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anzum Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 Currently we average 40.28. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A ORLOV Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 Currently we average 40.28. Where do you get that from as the bspa site says 49.62 and the limit is 50, so if Emil goes who has an average of 4.39 we have approx 4.77 based on latest green sheets.

A ORLOV Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 Palm Toft is he two high ? or maybe Auty whoever it is we need a change at reserve a couple of extra points could be vital. We needed a couple of riders to have bad scores in April, but that did not happen. Not very good planning from the management as a team does not get to the play offs with the points it gets in April . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anzum Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 Got the 40.28 from adding up the averages on the Swindon website on their Robins statistics page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A ORLOV Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 Got the 40.28 from adding up the averages on the Swindon website on their Robins statistics page. Ok but there has not been an adjusted team limit announced yet so it is difficult to work out how many points we have spare. Now Emils average from the website is 3.24 which if mult by 1.4 comes to 4.54 for the present 50 point limit, whereas on the bspa gs he has 4.39, so he has increased his average.

stevebrum Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 Weren't we promised a new more accurate set of averages from May 1st? Who knows? New averages can only be made when all riders have had 4H 4A tho anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
