Mr Ford still has to shed 2.64 points from last years team so maybe all options are on the table as far as rider assets are concerned. If not he will at least get a loan fee ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For be, the pertinent point is "during the season". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The season opens on March 1st so from then on its 'during the season' even if no team has ridden Of course the regs will be updated so the stated 16.2.6 could be different in 2019 too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nonsense, their averages are also low for the same reason. There's no 5-6 pointer out there that will score 5 or 6 week in week out. Some weeks they'll get 3 the next 8. The only rider's that will show real consistency are your 9 point plus rider's. Between Charles Wright and Kyle Newman there's no contest on potential improvement. Wright can do a job as a 2nd string / 3rd heatleader, Newman only delivers as a reserve. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 Newman reached his level and of anything gone backwards and injuries haven’t helped There can’t be a speedway fan out there who would rather have Newman than Charles Wright 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No meetings in March with April the starting point and with only 12 league meetings to fit in plus a few cup fixtures they want to miss possible postponed fixtures early on. Of course they fitted in 12 last year before the cut of date didn't they !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidney the robin Posted November 29, 2018 Report Share Posted November 29, 2018 Wright is a solid rider a rider i like i was a fan of his at Swindon he can also still improve. What i like about Wright is he has showed he can cope in the top 5 there are not to many of those riders around at the moment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestGorton1884 Posted November 29, 2018 Report Share Posted November 29, 2018 It’s all about opinions, but, on that average, I’d snap Charles Wright in a heartbeat , quite capable of upping that average to over 6 ... easily IMO of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
