Surely young riders racing as much as they can van only be a good thing and fixture clashes could be worked round.

Flint was there to be signed as a Prem rising star at the start but nobody wanted to know and Wolves went for the old hand who didn't work out. For once it would be nice if the rules were adhered to rather than changed when it suits.

Expand Just like signing the No1 averaged rider in the league.... Effectively you get access to every other rider as and when you need them... No1 rider gets injured? Or you agree to a fixture knowing he is away on FIM duty that night? No problem just choose the best rider that rides each track the best from every team apart from the one you are racing against (even UK speedway wouldn't allow you to use a rider from that nights opponents).... The saying "you couldn't make this up could you?" certainly doesn't fit for Speedway in the UK... They make it up pretty regularly...

greenheathen Posted June 14, 2021 Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 (edited) Tonights comment by Rory Schlein implies Wolves are going to suspend racing for a while. Pete Adams also said that they would need to have a think about things after todays announcement.

stevebrum Posted June 14, 2021 Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 It’s obvious Wolves and no doubt the speedway league will halt league racing after that pathetic attempt to justify why restrictions should be extended a month. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The criteria they used before to justify was an increase in infections x increase in hospital admissions x increase in deaths. What we currently have is less than half a person with Covid per hospital, yesterday we had 5 deaths, just a few weeks ago we had days with no deaths. Therefore there is not even a hint of a 3rd wave. The vaccine is protecting those who are vulnerable, Covid is currently the 9th biggest killer in the UK, yes 9th. There is no science that backs up the need to extend these ridiculous restrictions. There should never be a need for another lockdown ever again, however I’m sure the government will justify it somehow. Winter will always see an increase in deaths from viruses. The flu kills thousands every year. Do we lockdown or wear masks for those? People going abroad will bring new variants back to the UK. So yet again more threats of a new outbreak. It will never end. Even Boris said ‘at some stage we will have to learn to live with it’. That time is now. Or when do we wait till? infections will stay higher the more people socialise, that is completely NORMAL. So long as hospital don’t see an increase and deaths increase again then this is all perfectly normal. So yes, this extension is totally pathetic, backed up by no science whatsoever.

Gambo Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 It seems that Boris & Co. are following Humph's example of using % increases to amplify their figures. One of the slides shown had a starting figure of 3 per 100,000. the next figure was 5, so it transposed as a 66% rise! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
