dazzafl Posted November 15, 2016 Report Share Posted November 15, 2016 Im guessing Boxall would be a 10+ average. I don't think he is the force he once was but still a joy to watch especially at NL level providing he is on a reliable bike. i agree with you on that one.. would you use him on a 10+ average I think using that much on one rider could be a stretch too far.. for a balanced team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sings4Speedway Posted November 15, 2016 Report Share Posted November 15, 2016 i agree with you on that one.. would you use him on a 10+ average I think using that much on one rider could be a stretch too far.. for a balanced team If the number of teams in the NL & points limit stays the same a 10+ rider could well become appealing. Last year teams were struggling to build teams near to the limit due to the lack of riders with established averages. That said there are plenty who have upped their averages from last season so it might level out but i would rather build a team with a 10+ rider and a longer tail that is up to the 40 point mark than a balanced team that only just gets over the 36 base line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMungo Posted November 15, 2016 Report Share Posted November 15, 2016 What about Steffen Nielsen I would rather have him at no 1 if possible Not convinced a 750 mile round trip would be financially feasible for either party in NL, to be honest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swindon Thursday then Plymouth Friday might suit him although obviously if offered a NL close by it would be easier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halifaxtiger Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Swindon Thursday then Plymouth Friday might suit him although obviously if offered a NL close by it would be easier I think he'd just see riding NL as a step back in his career after 2016 was the most successful one to date and I really don't see what he'd gain from it.

Max Clegg rode in 3 leagues last year. Stefan could and boost his earnings..... and yes he has talent and I hope he fulfils it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobC Posted November 22, 2016 Report Share Posted November 22, 2016 (edited) Good luck to our new Promoters, Mark and Laurence. You will get the support back simply by promoting the club properly. Plymouth is great little club, but with a BIG heart. After all, we do have one of the best racing circuits in the country. Yes, I have been to every other track in the country, many times, so not a jaundiced view. Cant wait for the new season to start.

hackneyrocket Posted November 22, 2016 Report Share Posted November 22, 2016 Great news that Plymouth will be riding in 2017. Only been once when Rye were riding thought the track and stadium were great. Good luck to the new promotion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandelion Posted November 22, 2016 Report Share Posted November 22, 2016 What is the conversion rate for PL to NL? If it's PL average * 1.4 my calculation has Steve Boxall at 7.21, but that surely can't be right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
