Bagpuss Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 7 hours ago, Steve Shovlar said: Of course that would have meant Bickley out in heat 14 which would have gifted Poole a 4-2. Or heat 12 reserve swap which would have given a Poole heat advantage. It would have made no difference swapping him out as what you gain in one you lose in another. 7 hours ago, Phil The Ace said: Nope. Heat 7 would have been his 3rd ride. He wouldn't have been in heat 14 I’d have thought the best plan with a weak number seven is to get his three rides done in the first seven races leaving the better reserve to take the three non heat leader races.

I also thought if the rider you are bringing in hadn't ridden for you yet then you had to revert to your previous team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was injured but as he hadn’t appeared for the Club no facility was available. Ricky Wells was also injured so Belle Vue couldn’t revert to the previous declaration (as an injured rider cannot be (re)declared in a 1-7). So the only facility available to Belle Vue was ‘no facility’ - a CL Rider with a sub 4-point average. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPEEDY69 Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 9 hours ago, mikebv said: The Aces are definitely missing that third heat leader.. Dan is riding one position too high in the team as is Steve Worrall.. Their true level is as second strings... Their home form delivering a disproportionate overall average higher than their true capability... Not sure how the Aces sort that conundrum, hence a two man team in the main.. Especially when they have a team manager who struggles to give race winning reserves more than five rides... Worrall has not been the same since his broken leg, I thought he'd be a No.1 by now. Bewley also seems to have gone backwards, hope he soon gets back to his best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We was told we couldn't have vissing and that we had to get a championship rider under 4, hence Kyle coming in. Then at 17:10 they rang us to say they got it wrong and that we do get s facility. Couldn't make it up really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted July 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 Can’t see how you could have Vissing. Think Neil Watson has it spot on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouch Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 The funny thing is that as the powers that be were so wrapped up in the rouse to stop us tracking a stronger No7 they held back on our redeclaration but have now issued it showing Tero 4.55 replacing Ricky 4.52 even though our team total is 43.09. Can get complicated screwing us over sometimes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've already acknowledged their error but seriously, what you've just posted there sums up the absolute state of british speedway. The only facility is 'no facility' F&&k off Edit, not a pop at you btw Edited July 2, 2019 by acef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

semion Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 Think Steve Shovvy gets a lot of unwarranted criticism. The guy is passionate about Speedway ( I nearly called it a sport then). Ok he sees it all through ‘Poole tinted glasses’. Then again are there not many on here who are very blinkered toward their own Team ? He is a bit of an easy target and does leave himself wide open. Then again maybe he just enjoys the attention. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
