Always rides better when pappa G (his dad) is over. Same every year. Good solid rider is Josh. I like him. Belle vue should never have let him go.

Steve Shovlar Posted July 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 (edited) Remember a very young Josh at the old BV track have a perler on bend three when on Sky. He was leading the Poole heat leaders at the time. Isn’t BV his local track? Thought he lives in Manchester.

He's a very dependable 2nd string/3rd HL. Ironically exactly what bv need right now with the form of dan and steve who have both been awful.

stevebrum Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 3 hours ago, Phil The Ace said: The BSPA have alot to answer for last night. Would it have made a difference.. probably not. But we was shafted. So well done them Aarnio now reverts bk Into team. And not wells like they told us in the morning. So we diddnt have to use a championship rider under 4. Nice of them to tell us there mistake at 17:10. Well done you BSPA 3 hours ago, NeilWatson said: Shafted? Tero Aarnio was in the Belle Vue declared 1-7, effective 30th June. 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. I always believed there was no facility if a rider hasn’t ridden for the club which seems correct. completely different situation to a rider injured before the season starts as some have suggested regards Wolves.

Steve Shovlar Posted July 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 Nonsense to compare what they did last time and say they would do exactly the same again.

Because one or two have the mentality that if riders are missing they are always weaker I would say at home , with riders missing, then yes sometimes they will be weaker But away from home they can bring in 'horses for courses' and more often than not be stronger As an Ipswich fan id love us to be able to draft in Bellego at Belle Vue...............or replace Lawson at Kings Lynn ......or replace Harris at Wolves 9 minutes ago, lisa-colette said: By 1 point.

Wells if he rode instead of Bickley would have got 4 or 5 i would say Its all ifs and buts Poole drew there last time.......went back stronger.....Belle Vue were weaker.........Poole won...........obvious to any supporter that Poole should of and did win the match Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garry1603 Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 (edited) I think the debate about the BSPA ruling is overlooking the fact that Belle Vue were well beaten tonight with only Fricke (and to a smaller extent Lidsey) coming out with any credit. The two point deficit flattered the Aces and unfortunately it looks like we are a little short of top class when it comes down to it. The most concerning thing for me is the form of Bewley and Worrall who both look (understandably) a level below last season. I think we all suspected that entrusting Dan with a heat leader role was going to be a leap of faith, but sadly it looks like he's going to take longer than anticipated to step up. Don't think we need to change any personnel, but we might just have to live with an 'if only' season and review again in the winter.

It does mentions 4.24 but has no date, it’s just hovering about. Mistakes where made here due to the focus being on screwing us and like I say it can (to some) get complicated. Again, you need to look at the Green Sheet in its entirety. Issue 11 gives the 1st July figures in Column C, where Ricky Wells' average reduces from 4.52 (June average in Column A) to 4.24 Issue 12 does not affect Belle Vue averages Issue 13 shows a change for Belle Vue effective from 30th June. At 30th June Wells' average is still 4.52, and the team total is 42.34, so Aarnio at 4.55 is a valid team change. No mistake was made here. I do however accept that the way the Green Sheets appear can be complicated when a change occurs during the transition period between months. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilWatson Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 5 hours ago, ouch said: We signed Tero but due to his injury we had to revert to our previous declaration and include Ricky. This is what also happened at Kings Lynn with Nicol/Lambert. Issue 13 PL averages effective 1/07/19 have Ricky at 4.52. This allows us to use a CL guest up to 6.78. Issue 16 CL averages effective 1/07/19 have Vissing 6.65 Aces rode against Poole 01/07/19 The difference is that Ricky Wells is injured, so Belle Vue couldn't revert to the previous declaration. For correctness, Wells' average from 1st July is 4.24 (converts to 6.36) Which exceeds 6.36 Correct ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The powers that be told us that Tero HAD to be the rider we were replacing and a replacement is at the “directors discretion”. They denied an adequate replacement and we were forced to track Kyle.

ouch Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 I’m afraid to say reading through your thoughts on this it makes no sense to me whatsoever and only raises more questions with regards issue 13. It’s tedious in the extreme how this sport works as some participants look to gain an off track advantage. Maybe I need to speak with Craig Ackroyd to help me get my head round it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
