A ORLOV Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 The stupid average delay is caused by the stupid people running british speedway. Agree it has been stupid but fans expect silly ideas and rulings from the bspa. Now that Swindon has had its 4th home meeting I believe that all clubs have now had 4h and 4a so averages can be recalculated, not sure what happens about a rider who might have only had one or two meetings, and I think there will be a few more team rider changes taking place from now.

John Scrutton Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 In the match at Somerset several weeks ago Porsing scored zero Also we are still tied down to a No 7 until the new averages are out just over 2 and their aint a lot of them about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I hear, their averages will be assessed, crazy or what. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waytogo28 Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 No one is predicting a score I see. I predict that the Stars will do well to reach 36 and they could get less with that team. My fingers are crossed that they will do better of course, as a fan of the Stars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing was more ridiculous then having to use PL averages in a EL league. Added to that the riders who hadn't got a PL average had to multiply their EL with a 1.4 evaluation to form some sort of levelling factor. When questioned it was said these figures are for team construction only and new proper figures to be used when attained from matches this year. There has been no announcement made from that point. We then hear riders will now need to have 4 H and 4 A before they will be changed, That I don't understand. Any figure attained, be from 1 , 3, 5 meetings has to be more realistic and accurate than the rubbish we are using at present.. Then it was announced no changes would be implemented until all Clubs had completed 4H and 4A in the view of fairness. God knows what fairness has to do with it.. Some teams will have played far more than others using this higher scores.. We will be almost to July, and teams and riders are still using fictitious figures, fabricated back in February.... The delay has made the whole idea laughable... One has to ask if we can compete using this stupid PL method for half a season, why do we need averages at all. Let clubs pick the riders they want.... Simple, anything has to be better than we have at present.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batch,Rose and Huckenbeck x2 for Porsing should return 4-5.Can't see Nick scoring more.I think he drew a black last time he was there. Kurtz is a big plus for MPT..Branford in for Heeps is a minus.And of couse Carr for Lambert is a minus. I'll stick my neck out and say 48-42 home win. Top scored for Lynn, Batch 12 from 6( if he gets HT15) Now watch me fall flat on my face Edited June 16, 2017 by Bald Bloke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gresham Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 What a nightmare... Left to go over an hour ago... Got to m5 and literally did half a mile. It's gridlock. Radio says 2 hours to get to Clevedon. Sod sitting in that traffic in this heat. Hope all the riders left early enough... Wouldn't be surprised if start was delayed. Why Somerset race on a Friday is beyond me. It must affect the gate so many times. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took me four and a half hours once😔 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 The Rebels have 2 guests on Fri for for Paddy and Heeps and RR for Wrighty. Not the managements fault, but what a joke our wonderful sport of speedway has become. Needless to say I won't be turning up for this two guests and R/R. Somerset's Palm Toft riding for Scunthorpe and Scunthorpe's Lewis Kerr riding for Somerset. Hears an idea why don't the two team managers agree that Palm Toft can ride for Somerset and Kerr ride for Scunthorpe? Much better than Kings Lynn versus Somerset guests, Also Heaps riding for Ipswich. At the moment it's even money we will get two full teams by the Play Offs.

GregoryM Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) Bit of a sweeping statement that. During my time with this sport I have been to many tracks, including quite a few that have since closed. but to say 'fitted around a Greyhound/stock car/ football/rugby pitch etc. is probably more right than wrong, but not all these tracks are poor. The biggest problem is that the sport has changed and bike are now totally different to what was once used... These High revving machines need more space to perform. Some tracks are destined to be poor each week, others can be good and bad. Some are amazing and serve up top notch racing each week. Of the ones that remain, Belle Vue must be the top choice. but bearing in mind the Planning, and financing if it wasn't, then serious questions would be asked.. The problem we have at Lynn is more to do with the shale than the shape or the Stock Car usage. I am in no doubts if we had the proper stuff, prepared as it should, the racing would be far better. To me the quality of racing is more important than the result..... Saddlebow Road produced some terrific racing for many years after the white line was taken in (1970s ?) I visited several times a season whenever Belle Vue were there and during the summer months when I stayed with relatives in Norfolk. The racing between the likes of Terry Betts, Malcolm Simmons, Howard Cole for the Stars and PC, Mort for Belle Vue was fantastic. I last visited about two years ago and I was very disappointed.

Went a few times early to mid nineties and it was a fantastic race track... Rose tinted glasses maybe but it seemed every heat was in doubt till last bend last lap... Sad to hear of its demise...

mikec Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 I see Lawson living up to his outside of top ten British riders mantle then..... Having a good season, would be great to see Lawson carry that form into Monday night in Manchester - might be an awkward tv interview on the cards for Rosco if he does! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
