Tapeworm Posted May 23, 2021 Report Share Posted May 23, 2021 By tonight, six teams will have been tracked for their FIRST Championship match of the season. Only one will have fielded their declared seven riders. That's farcical. Injuries and adverse reactions to innoculations are, I suppose, unavoidable but the fans want to see THEIR team competing on "equal" terms, with heart and soul, not R/R and guests. And, I'm sympathetic with the totally-foreseeable situation Coty finds himself in but surely Berwick should have signed a replacement by now? If the clubs can't turn up with their own team for the FIRST meeting of the season, how much worse will it be later on when even more riders are injured or retired or committed to individual/international/foreign/long track/etc fixtures? The authorities need to decide if speedway is a team sport or an individual one. There aren't enough viable dates in the season for both. If it's a team sport, apart from the GP series, vastly reduce the number of individual/pairs/fours titles. Or, if it's an individuals sport, watch support for teams dwindle away to unsupportable levels until the riders don't have teams to supply their 'bread and butter' income anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s crazy really that a team can have a higher rated Rising Star as a guest that they one they actually own! When every other rider has a guest covering him, it’s just up to his average irrespective of the team’s total average. So it should be the same for Rising Stars.

geoff100 Posted May 23, 2021 Report Share Posted May 23, 2021 Gem question how can scunny have howarth in on a higher average than tero? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Blobby Posted May 23, 2021 Report Share Posted May 23, 2021 That’s like having a 6 point average rider out injured and being allowed to replace him with a 7 point average rider. Only in British speedway this could happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame it was not a little more as it would have been nice to have got Jake in at 7.26. The ruling on the rising star is from what is remaining in your initial declaration. Even in our team, if J Palin is unavailable, we are allowed a replacement of up to & including a 3* rating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
