justathought Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 I personally believe Leicester will come good. They won't win the league, not with the current team, but I'm fairly confident they will make the top 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me the team is one decent rider away from being a good team but it’s so difficult to make that move at the moment and once some riders sitting out of U.K. do want to do meetings it’s too late One decent rider away from being a good team? That sounds like Swindon for the first half of last year, and look what happened there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaColette Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 Just out of interest who would Klindt have been replacing? Apologies if it's been covered but didn't see it mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 Seems like Josh Bates can now be ruled out of the season. Danny King is having to continue with nerve damage which could impair him for the rest of the season. So will the management keep things as they are, or look to bring someone in (e.g. to replace Todd Kurtz)? The scope for UK - based riders looks a bit on the thin side though. But getting Kyle Newman back to reserve has got to be a priority. Will the new averages create any more elbow room? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But getting Kyle Newman back to reserve has got to be a priority. Will the new averages create any more elbow room? Last night's meeting was the last before the averages are calculated on the 23rd. So based on those averages( updated on Lions website), if they were to drop Kurtz to get Newman back to reserve, which would seem the obvious thing to do, they would have 6.35 to replace Kurtz. Pieszczek (6.50), Sarjeant(3.00) & Kurtz( 4.02) are all on assessed averages until they've rode 4h & 4a, which won't happen until 4th July. Pieszczek & Sarjeant are both averaging above those assessed averages( although that will presumably drop when they've done the 4 away meetings), so any changes would probably be best done before they get real averages. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbobee Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 If that info is correct - we should sign either Erik Riss or Lasse Bjerre I reckon ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 (edited) So July aves should be? Kenneth Bjerre 7.54 Hans Andersen 7.42 Kristian Pieszczek 6.50 Danny King 6.46 Kyle Newman 5.23 Todd Kurtz 4.02 James Sarjeant 3.00 Total 40.17 Leaving 2.33 to strengthen up! I'd agree Eric Riss or Lasse Bjerre seem best options! Edited June 14, 2018 by szkocjasid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd agree Eric Riss or Lasse Bjerre seem best options! Yes, that's what I think the averages will be calculated 23rd June with effect 1st July. So taking the obvious decision to get rid of Kurtz to allow Newman to return to reserve it would be 4.02 + 2.33 = 6.35. If you look at last years Premiership average both Riss & Bjerre would fit, but don't they have to go on the most recent average now , which would be this seasons championship average x 1.3. 6.35 x 1.3 is 8.25. So any championship rider up to 8.25 would fit, Riss is 8.11, Bjerre 8.18, at the minute both would fit, but when Julys Championship averages are calculated they maybe too high, depends on their new average.

Using their most up to date figures they fit, but that will change with matches due to be raced before the cut-off & a 26 match rolling ave replacing the current 28 match rolling ave!

Yes, not much leeway, if their averages have improved by 0.15 (Riss) & 0.08 ( Bjerre) they won't fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al Posted June 16, 2018 Report Share Posted June 16, 2018 Coventry v Buxton tomorrow is off due to an electrical problem. National League 4's cancelled due to "a combination of circumstances". Leicester v Wolves (apparently) put back to 2 July. Is something going on?? (apart from the footy) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(apart from the footy) Leicester v Wolves moved from Wed. 27th June to July 2nd, because Lions would have been missing Andersen & Bjerre due to Danish commitments. Wolves agreed to switch, although 2nd July could clash with England match depending if they qualify from their group & in what position.

flagrag Posted June 16, 2018 Report Share Posted June 16, 2018 NL fours cancelled due to football and England playing last group game. There was also two clubs that had rider availability issues so made sense to change the date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
