Rye House 2017


Recommended Posts

If you read it again, you will see that the top 3 by average, or the top 3 scorers from programmed rides qualify for Heat 15.

Josh Bates rode in heat 15 for the Lions on Monday night against Kings Lynn. He was riding at number 7.

Fair play to the promotion for having a go & not just accepting the play offs are gone. With Poole & Lynn shooting themselves in the foot it's a no brainer to sign Kasprzak at reserve.

 

Hopefully he's right in the head & feels he has a point to prove. Only a couple of years ago he was fighting for the world title.

I bet Matt wished he could have pulled that move off

When KK is on song he is brilliant to watch, last year at Coventry he was very good.

 

Will score big time at reserve!

Yep dead right he is, when he scored 16 points for us last season guesting he was signed on the spot. I don't expect him to do any better at Rye.

Wouldn't see the point in using Kasprzak in heat 15, even if he is the Rockets best rider on the night. which is entirely likely. If he is a reserve he could have 7 rides prior to heat 15, may as well win the meeting before heat 15 if you can.

He will only be reserve for 2 weeks and then Robson will be back at 6

How does that work then? KK's first meeting for us is 2nd August? Don't new averages come into effect on the first of each month?

A real statement of intent with KK's signing. At worst he should do better than Sedgmen, at best he could have a couple of good meetings at reserve and be the best rider in the side.

 

When he moves up we are going to always have one of Robbo, Barker or Wells in a reserve slot. With foreign riders not dropping below four point averages it was always going to be Morley as the replacement for Rob once KK was signed. Will struggle away but pick up points at home.

Blimey!! Another rule I was unaware of. I'm sure there are plenty more.

Looking at the fixtures that's five meetings before the averages change

Something not right in camp maybe?.I'd be very surprised if he don't up his average.Will Eddie

Poole wasn't Kaspazak's first choice during the winter but the team he wanted to sign for offered him a very poor deal so he signed for Poole.

He didn't seem happy at Poole or their ploughing field and his scores here reflected that while he was scoring well elsewhere. I would be surprised if he rode the pirates again.

 

KK & Harris has always openly said how much they enjoy riding together and I think the mix of this team will work well. He won't stay at reserve long.

 

This could be the closest to a bees team us Coventry fans ever see again 😥 I hope they do well

Why not just have one rule for heat 15 ie put in who you want. Simple

The rules were made to stop teams who'd already lost taking the micky out of paying fans by tracking their worst riders in the last heat. It was to make heat 15 an exciting finish to the meeting irrelevant of scorelines. As ever with speedway rules, a basically sensible idea was then complicated beyond belief.
