I have just checked averages and your right. Come from someone I would have said was in the know. Maybe they know something we dont :-p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not gonna be around for long ? Said exactly the same thing to my mate! And why did we need an interval after all the other delays, restarts, grading, two on trot. 2 hours is ridiculous Edited June 3, 2019 by kelvinht 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acef Posted June 3, 2019 Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 You do have to wonder whether it was the plan all along, playing devils advocate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPEEDY69 Posted June 3, 2019 Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 It depresses me that every season now its all about changes to line ups rather than sticking with the first choice team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not gonna be around for long ? Hopefully not but he did do his job in this match. Buster's new technique of less grading giving better racing NOT put into action then? If it worked at Alwalton, it might well work at the AFA and give less than 11 GTF heats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Scrutton Posted June 4, 2019 Report Share Posted June 4, 2019 Lynn are in a catch 22 system at the moment they want to keep winning matches but at the same time not wanting to up riders averages up so as to make room for Riss to return in a few weeks at the same time 3 of the present team are fighting not to be dropped when this happens.

Riss can come back for Jorgensen or Proctor at any time this month. Plus we will have more points to play with if we want to get rid of anyone else.

Daniel Smith Posted June 4, 2019 Report Share Posted June 4, 2019 Although Proctor and Jorgensen haven't hit the road running, wouldn't it be a risk to bin fit rider's for an injured rider?!? Both can only get better and there was an improvement in both at home, points wise. Looking at the figures, it looks like we'll see June out and depending on form Riss could come back in for Kerr and be under 42.50 from July 1st.

Don't think they would bin a fit rider for an injured rideri'm sure they would only bring Riss back when fit.Personally think the Cook signing was for another rider and not Riss,but when Riss got injured it was common sense to do it the way they have done it. With the matches they have in June and the one at the end of May that counts towards the averages you would like the team average would take a slight dip,but who knows with the rolling avearges.I must admit i can't be bothered to go back over their last 20 matches,i will wait for the website to do that.

Lindgren, our best rider for more than a decade, had a bad smash and he was not as good for the whole of the next season.

As to the semi final are you sure the Belle Vue rider was Bjerre ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
