Waste of 4 points on him, no better than Stoneman on a 2 or David Wallinger who guested for him last time I was down

Well he beat the guy he replaced twice last night. In fact, apart from heat 5 when Danny Ayres made a blistering start, he was only defeated by opposition heat leaders. He'll do for me for now. it's other areas of the team need looking at.

He’s been sacked 

Really.! I thought he was ill ( Some infectious virus). Point 1:- We used R/R for Lasse last night so a sick-note would have been needed. Point 2:- If he has been sacked then we would have only been able to use a 2 point guest last night (which, as it happens wouldn't have made that much difference). Personally I'd be surprised as he is 3rd in the team averages behind Steve and Matty (who has been simply sensational this year and is currently miles ahead in my rider of the year so far). Whereas our original number 1 is 4th!

Not sure what averages you are looking at, but he's 4th in all of them GSA's, 2019, home and away :blink:

Page 15 Newcastle v Scunthorpe program. Which are THIS season's proper averages , Including bonus points. GSA's are always "bent" these days as they don't include bonus points and currently include half of last years fixtures! It just shows how good a partnership he has with Matty as they've scored as many bonus points between them as the rest of the team put together. 

Matty is averaging 8.26 this season as against his GSA of 6.52. Heaven help us if he gets injured. ( As Sheffield have found out with Broc Nicol).

So does that mean we can swap him for a rider up to 7.42(his proper average)?,,, bargain, if we can ;)

Whilst its more than about time if its Ully replacing its hardly an upgrade. They both have their engines maintained by Westwood.

Lord Westwood???? I thought he was dead??  Oh! No sorry wrong Westwood!! Not sure who he is?? Maybe Jesper Olsen needs to tune his engines. Don't know if he does or ever did!!
