I don’t think so, as he has a PL average of over 6.00 so can’t drop down. At least that’s how I understand it. Means only British premiership riders over 6.00 can drop down leaving only Robert lambert and Craig cook as possible number 1s for the diamonds... unless the rule book has further twists in it


craig cook is gp rider so unless he rides for Workington he cant ride championship 

only reason he code ride for Workington is that he rode for them when he qualified for gp 

also the over 6 point rule was only for riders who didn't ride in the championship wasn't it 

so josh could drop down

Never thought any offence was meant or would be taken - just a jokey response from me

I like Ruff's laid back posting style and not doubt whilst there has been plenty posted that you could be offended by Neil this wouldnt be one of them!

Your ability to just let the crap slide by and continue to post constructive and informative posts is most commendable :t:

Why would Jorgensen come in on a 7.77 ave when he has a 2017 Champ ave of 7.10?

I, also, thought you were right but have found this in the 2018 regs.

16.2.7
The most recently established MA will be used. If a rider has an established MA in both the Premiership and Championship Leagues, established in the same season, that leagues MA will apply to that league

Well after so many losses and weeks of complaints, they might have acted a little sooner.

The averages sooner wouldn't have worked. OK, they could have swapped Pyper with maybe Perks, but they did what they said they were going to do and wait for the new averages, then swapped a reserve with a heat leader. The team looks a lot stronger now with Kus down to third heat leader and Jonas back down to second string. All that and keeping the two new riders at reserve where they will progress.  Away you go now and back to your usual comments of calling everyone and everything "sh*te", its a lot easier for you to cope with.

good signing Jorgensen - completely rebalances your side ............  just what we want up the road ......

the wooden spoon could be drifting back Newcastle or Berwicks way   (of Glasgow given their recent home form :))

 

Maybe you tried.....

Do you mean the same Berwick who are so far unbeaten and are sitting 3rd in the league...…. Good luck

Looking at the other teams in the League I still think the Bears will struggle to get off the bottom but the move definitely strengthens the side.

Just need the riders to show a bit more consistency particularly in home matches as constantly losing at home is a big concern.

Visiting teams seem to love riding at Redcar so home track advantage is negligible - another reason Redcar will struggle to move much up the table.
