(bait set) Nah, it's all about Agent Sarj, dispatched on a mission to return as a 3pt reserve for the mighty Tigers next season! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Averaged over 4 (4.3?) from his first year in British speedway. Jordan Stewart only averaged 3.7 last year in similar circumstances but he's been flying this year. Think its a good signing for Glasgow (that should put the mokkers on him lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan didn't have that background but I'd have him any day over Mikkel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWC Posted August 1, 2019 Report Share Posted August 1, 2019 So long as a rider gets fixed up with another team then it remains an evil that we the supporters have to put up with. But it’s time to bring an end to the merry go round me thinks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenga Posted August 1, 2019 Report Share Posted August 1, 2019 well that move adds 2/3 points to the edinburgh total every meeting .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD Posted August 1, 2019 Report Share Posted August 1, 2019 There were always going to be multiple changes with the team building average increasing during the season, something I've never seen done before and hopefully never again. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would be the point of that, he's earned little enough over the last few weeks, and unless he already had the deal done to go to Edinburgh (which I suspect he would), he wouldn't know when he would have an opportunity to earn again. Also I suspect he would not want to upset his parent club, and at the same time put himself in the "shop window" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that this doesn't matter in these desperate times for Championship speedway. Glasgow and Somerset desperate to be in play-offs.

In Somerset's case they had to because 2 riders left of there own accord, in our case replacing an out of form rider hardly desperate bit of an overreaction describing it as desperate. Pro-active yes but not desperate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MD Posted August 1, 2019 Report Share Posted August 1, 2019 Being reported that Starkey is out for around 6 weeks. Being fourth in the averages means r/r with 2 reserve rides and one for the newly installed MBA, which is asking a bit. Being a crucial part of the season we may be better with a temporary injury replacement as approx 6 weeks could actually be longer. Anyone got a number for Victor or Joel? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not good news for Paul, or the team. Need to get cover for sure, think it would please the Leicester fans if Victor was offered employment by his parent club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ring Victor, he's like the 'hokey cokey' champion this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
