Baldyman Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 30 minutes ago, Arch Stanton said: It’s an interesting one as you’d assume whoever it is is on a hefty average? If he’s the best number 6 in the league. Not doable if Crump is retained on his inflated average at 1. Throws up all sorts of questions! Newcomer on an assessed average perhaps? That's maybe what I'm thinking,, a new rider to these shores on a 4. Or is it Johno making his comeback, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 Or maybe Chris has been inspired by Crumpy and decided to give it another bash 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember at mildenhall when he promoted there the riders said the track was unfit. Chris jumped on a bike and went round absolutely fine and declared the meeting would go ahead !!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spl77 Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 I wonder what average Gino would be on might be worth a go in a watered down league, depending on covid issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gasser90 Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 I think Max ruml would be a great signing to have at Ipswich. Just won the AMA national back in December. The Americans typically go well on the smaller tracks so foxhall is perfect. He deserves a chance to try out in Europe in my opinion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon1983 Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 What i don;t understand is that there are quite a few european riders who won't be riding in 2021 yet their clubs are all over social media saying they are using the same team or trying to, I don't think many at the BSPA actually spoke to their 2021 riders beforehand to see if most are coming back in 2021 There are going to be absolute bucket loads of team changes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will be on the lowest criteria for a yank in the Premiership, as his last stint in this country wasn't a success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd be on an assessed 4.00 ave, but didn't average over that for Scunthorpe last he was here, so wouldn't advise signing him for a Prem team spot!

Oh crumbs are Kings Lynn fans going to be mighty relieved? You have always struck me as a sensible and knowledgeable poster and backs riders with more riders with more than just words (like Kemps 6k engine) but i fear this latest involvement may be quite a folly.

I don't have a problem with him being in the Ipswich line up,,, but on a more realistic average of 6. I don't see the point of having a rider that will clearly drop his average by possibly a quarter. As already said though,,, it may all be about bums on seats. Or maybe he will be somewhere else. It's actually not bad thing. Swindon did it with Jason Doyle a few years back when he was given a 13 average. Once the new averages come into effect then you can make team changes and still have Jason on a more realistic average and it will make the team stronger. Plus, you'll still have the pleasure of watching a legend riding in the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2ndbendbeerhut Posted January 25, 2021 Report Share Posted January 25, 2021 We have 6 riders already (assuming that Drew is the Rising Star) The Witches need a 6th rider to complete the team BUT the other 5 are over the points limit, so which one of Crump, King, Klindt, Allen and Heeps will be released and then another rider will be needed to replace them.....

So let's says the new number 6 is a 3 pointer how much does that then take us over limit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
