Glasgow V Newcastle Championship 8th April 2017


Recommended Posts

I think we went a bit OTT with dirt, catching out the inexperienced Phillips and Smith who got a sore one. Quite a few races were well strung out like last week though Phillips and Coles are well out of their depth which didnt help. Hopefully Perry gets his engine issues sorted pronto, three EF's in a row wont do. Lets see if we can get a point at Scunthorpe tomorrow.

I know Tom perry snapped the sprocket bolts clean off the rear hub in one of his races and had ignition problems in another changed the complete ignition system and waited till the NJL match finished to check everything was ok for tomorrow so all sorted now think he could be a key rider for us tomorrow at reserve

Pretty much what I expected with the top two of Newcastle offering the only resistance to Glasgow, The Tigers threw away some silly points tonight with Perry having engine troubles all night, Special mention to S Worrall who was superb and Nike Lunna had a great meeting too with a superb pass on Lindgren in heat 14.

As mac101 explained, Tom Perry snapped the sprocket bolts clean off the rear hub in one of his races and had ignition problems in another, changed the complete ignition system and then waited till the NJL match finished to check everything was ok for the next match 'tomorrow' so all sorted now. I take the positive side of that (the cup is half full rather than half empty) and very professional going forward to the next match and I agree with mac101 that he could be a key rider for Glasgow today at reserve.

I enjoyed last night , some cracking races with the Newcastle top two . Our young second strings came up trumps with the match winning contributions , their progress this season is going to be a joy to watch .

Newcastle's top two is probably the best spearhead in the league , but if they are going to challenge for honours they need better than this from Lindgren , who was dreadful last night .

Hes a BV asset.

True (sort of). With Belle Vue in limbo this winter their assets switched to the BSPA. When Steve signed for Newcastle this year Steve didn't officially belong to Belle Vue ( I assume the same applies to Worky with Craig Cook). Therefore Newcastle have PRIORITY this season with any fixture clashes. I think that must be the reason, anyway Newcastle come first unless we have to rearrange any fixture which clashes with a Belle Vue date already in the calendar.

Craig Cook is owned by Edinburgh but doesn't really matter, he's been at BV for 7 seasons now so they take priority over Workington where he's only been for the one season.

 

BV should still have priority over Newcastle for Worrall too. Mind you, Rye House should have priority over Branford but he rode for Sheffield last night.

How does that work? Branford is a Redcar asset and Sheffield is in the same league as Redcar. Or is there another rule that people including the BSPA arn't aware of?

1. Which of the two clubs own the rider

2. The club the riders has ridden for most

3. The league his parent club ride in

 

Branford was in Ryes 1-7 at the end of last season, so they have priority.

SCB Regs for 2017 state:

 

16.1 A Rider must be released to take part in a higher priority Meeting, unless he is “Doubling Up”, in which case the priority for a clash of Official Meetings is as follows: -

 

a) The Original Fixture if there is a clash with a re-arranged Fixture

B) 1st priority to the owner of the rider

c) 2nd priority to the previous season club

d) 3rd priority to the league in which the owner club is a member.

 

16.1.2 A Transfer during the Season does not change this priority.

 

Since last year's Belle Vue promotion were effectively stripped of their Licence then SCB Reg:-

 

6.4 If a Promotion ceases to operate, and/or the SCB order an Annulment, riders on that Promotion's Retained List shall revert to the BSPA and transfers take place as per Art 6.2.2.

 

Therefore Belle Vue's rider assets transferred into BSPA membership. So when Newcastle signed Steve Worrall for 2017 he did not belong to Belle Vue he belonged to BSPA. Hence a and b do not apply. I don't know if Belle Vue have re-aquired the assets back from BSPA or not but even if they had it is a transfer to the NEW promotion and 16.1.2 applies. Therefore Newcastle get priority in 2017 as c) he rode for Newcastle last year NOT the CURRENT Belle Vue promotion.
