You mean 5.58 for each of them, which is about what you would expect: 8.58 for NKI and 2.58 for Sarjeant.

I think what he is saying is, did the changes make any difference? KP and Kennett would have probably averaged the same points wise. We will never know. 

Not sure they could have done much worse. NKI going through the tapes in heat 1 at Swindon was the end of any potential (however unlikely) Ipswich fight back however unlucky he was in the first leg.

I think Allen and Heeps have to be retained.

You will get the usual gobs on here talking about Cam away in the final but he is dynamite at home and thats all important.

I think King will be back but out of the 2 around similar average would rather have Lawson but rather neither.

Pretty obvious that neither Harris or Sarj will be back and unlikely that Niels will be either

2. Nicholls 5.50

3. Heeps 6.37

4. Allen 5.56

5. Klindt 7.43

Leaves 12.37 for 2 riders

 

 

Fill in the blanks

NKI wasnt unlucky in the first leg?

He was leading both heats when they were stopped and rerun.  I'd consider that unlucky, that said for a rider of his calibre he should be scoring more at home.

Of course he was unlucky but thats speedway

Leading 2 races that were both stopped is unlucky

To then go out and not make the gate in the re runs is poor i will give you that.............

Dont see how you can say at home, When really Foxhall is more like an away track to NKI,  Peterborough or Lynn are more like home tracks to him

He had a Witch on his chest, that makes it his home track regardless of how often he has ridden there.  More importantly he is not facing any riders who would consider themselves Foxhall their home track.

Think NKI was poor rather than unlucky as I've said numerous times elsewhere if he can gate in the first running he can gate in the rerun, no excuses really. 

Bit like a penalty shootout well if I went the other way it would have gone in, or my team mate missed so I missed also but if his would of gone in etc.

You are mixing up poor and unlucky

Unlucky to be leading 2 races that were stopped

Poor to then not make the gate in the re run

The only way its comparable to a penalty is if a player scores but then its asked to be re taken due to an encroachment and then missed.......unlucky that it had to be re taken and poor that he missed the second chance

Can see several from this season being retained, for me I want to be entertained at home and see some riders with potential to improve

1. Niels/klindt

2. heeps/howarth 

3. riss/Wilson-dean/Allen

4. wright/ellis

5. king/klindt/musielak

6. allen/covatti/piezczek/becker 

7. Perks/Pickering/Douglas/kemp/garrity

People saying nicholls at reserve would be good...maybe but tbh I think he’s gone backwards this year for a reason, he’s getting older, it catches up with everyone eventually - can’t see him all of a sudden putting 2-3 points back on his average next year
