Sings4Speedway Posted April 11, 2019 Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 5 minutes ago, IronScorpion said: If that is the case then, who is going to give a place to an untried Aussie with British patriality who has a CL average of 4 which, I think have read somewhere, is now doubled from CL to NL which would be an 8. Not sure if this is correct but there are other posters on here that will know! Add in the dubious secret ruling of only 1 rider per NL team who has a Champ level average of 4.00+ (or has achieved that at some point in the past) which i think all barring Belle Vue have already included its a very small window of opportunity for List. But things do happen and a club may be desperate for a long term replacement for a heat leader but with guests available for number 1's its a long shot during the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GWC Posted April 18, 2019 Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 Reminds me of the old days when some Aussies would come over and ride second halves and then sleep in their car! I hope Palin isn’t a year too early next season after Godfrey almost guaranteed him a team place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope Palin isn’t a year too early next season after Godfrey almost guaranteed him a team place. Jordan Palin did rather well against older riders at the Isle Of Wight on Tuesday. I'm sure he'll be fine after a whole year with Belle Vue Colts in the National League. Problem with Jedd is that option was not available to him and also that his average cannot go below 4.00. It was into the deep end. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was into the deep end. Scunthorpe shouldn’t have brought him across the world to ride for them if he wasn’t ready to do so. Seems a common theme with assessed riders who aren’t up to scratch these days to justify it by saying they were thrown in at the deep end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going back to List for me he was very unlucky a massive ask in the top 5 and starting at reserve i believe he would of been ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronScorpion Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Got to be 16 which is not until Feb 2020 which is good as other teams cannot use him & he gets an average over 2.00. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Lawlor to guest in Friday’s home match against Somerset and Rob Godfrey has stated: “Joe is really keen to do well for us on Friday, because he knows that a good performance could go a long way to convincing us that he deserves a full-time crack at Championship level" So here's hoping it works out for "Young Joe" and he knocks in a few points to warrant his retention in the team...

We are over the 38 point limit in June so only a like for like swap. Bailey has an average of 3.18 so up to that or a British rider having ridden in the NL up to 3.26. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be similar to the Josh Auty scenario when he took a break then wanted to return, so a 14 day ban was imposed. If he is taking a full break & withholding his services then a 28 day ban for the rider. Other than this, I think a re-declaration is required. Follow the Glasgow thread as this could be similar with Chessell bowing out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
