IronScorpion Posted April 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2018 18.10.3 This rule is in bold so is new this year. Any rider that is in a current 1-7 can guest in either league. If the rider does not have a MA in the league he will be guesting in, then the 1.3 conversion applies. His then average must be lower than the rider he is replacing. A rider may guest only once within an 8 day period unless he is replacing a home teams no1. Looking at the guests Rob has chosen, even though we performed very well last week, he does not want to give riders, in our league, any practice on our track. Pre season, I think it has been noted, that when we had a private practice on a Wednesday, Ipswich were also here. Sheffield, being here next week, is a perfect example of not using Howarth tonight.

eric i Posted April 13, 2018 Report Share Posted April 13, 2018 Can we keep using guests indefinitely until Stevie is fit or is there a limit to how long we can use them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronScorpion Posted April 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 It is in the SS as well as D Peet's verdict putting the incident of Manzares's engine blowing up as the reason for our defeat. Instead of being level at 12 all we were 14-10 behind. There were still 11 heats remaining so saying we were playing catch up, & all the riders were trying, there were other areas to explore & these must be put right. We even tried the t/s in heat 6 using Auty for Phillips. IF ONLY Steve was there it could have been a different story, with it being his home track for the last few years, as a few pointers could have been passed on.

In theory it's for 28 days. But you can then re-apply again and again and again. So it shouldn't be (and usually isn't) a problem as long as He keeps submitting Sick notes. You might have had a problem if he got injured riding for Belle Vue BEFORE turning out for you as a facility isn't always allowed if a rider hasn't rode in the current) or at the end of the last) season for the team concerned . That's why Poole had to sign Kildemand on a temp contract to replace Holder. You will have a problem if he starts riding for Belle Vue and/or Poland and you are still using a facility for him. Unlikely, it's true, but it has happened. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, in this scenario its probably be 'likely' that a guest option will be available, until he is fit to ride,,, wether it be Scunny or Belle Vue, yeah ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duffyscouse Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 Without being disrespectful to our guests thus far - it has to be said we are a better team with Stevie in it 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric i Posted May 28, 2018 Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 So with Stefan unfortunately out for some time do Scunny go with R/R or do they look to sign another rider, Andreas Lyager would fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronScorpion Posted May 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 With Stefan now 4th in the averages, Garrity, Allen & reserves can take his rides but it is the issue of having a guest for Steve at 1 that could be the bigger issue. Losing another rider in a meeting could mess things up. Hoping that all the others are fit r/r for Steve & guest for Stefan might be a better option. Heavy rain forecast Friday so the meeting at Glasgow might not take place but lets see how our management think. There are a few meetings programmed for Friday so guests would be limited.

Islander15 Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 Jorgensen looked a potentially decent temporary replacement for Nielsen, but now that won’t happen seeing as he’s singed for Redcar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScunnyDan Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 Summers for Stef at Glasgow and R/R for super Stevie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Average is too high anyway 7.77, we have 7.15 to play with. Lyager would come in on a 7, he rides in Denmark (mainly Wednesday) and hes the number 8 for Czestochowa (mainly sunday) so he might be keen to get some more rides as he doesn't seem to get many in Poland.

Great shout actually isn't it time we actually got to see what Lyager could do over a sustained period. He certainly looked the part in his very short stint here last time ?. I believe we have to restore the team to a 1-7 asap. Yes we can run r/r and book guests but personally I want to see a full team out there of Scunthorpe riders not a "pick n mix" select that really saps the interest out it ! ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that after I posted. I thought he’d use the Championship average he got last season of 7.10. Lyager would be an excellent option but wouldn’t you want to save his 7.00 average (which would probably go up if he came in this season) for another year when he can do a full season?!

Well not really, Scunthorpe have a good chance of winning the league this year if they play their cards right so if they feel Lyager will improve the team then they have to do it...

That’s true. I meant if Lyager came in temporarily for Nielsen. It depends how long he’ll be out for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
