LagutaRacingFan Posted October 22, 2021 Report Share Posted October 22, 2021 The British League is a lot tougher than the others. Riders want an easy pay cheque. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehone Posted October 22, 2021 Report Share Posted October 22, 2021 might be worth a look at Kemp, reckon he'll be after a bigger track next year 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghosty Posted October 22, 2021 Report Share Posted October 22, 2021 If as we all hope there are at least 8 teams in the premiership will there be enough G.B. talent for 2 rising stars per team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted October 23, 2021 Report Share Posted October 23, 2021 Kemp Rowe Pailin Brennan Hume Mountain Gilkes Thompson x 2 Edwards Flint Bickley Bailey Bowtell Thomas Kinsley Jenkins Off the top of my head. Debatable how many of those would be up to the job, might have to draft in some slightly older ones like Shanes or Clegg initially but that might defeat the object a bit. To be honest I'd like to see all British reserves for both leagues but not to the detriment of team strengths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder why?.......... This hasn't been tested yet however remember the other rule a few years ago around doubling up that prevented Scott Nicholls doubling up with Peterborough, he was prepared to go to court & once the BSPA realised he wasn't bluffing the rule was soon dropped.

I wonder why?.......... Could it be because only fans get worked up about it? I’m not sure what there is to test. Riders ride where they want to ride and teams holding their registration can’t stop them. It has been challenged within BSPA, one of the times was Adrian Miedinski wanting to ride for Poole when Swindon held his registration. The rider got his way 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers99 Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 What do we think to Troy on a 5.00 odd average? COULD easily put a couple points on that IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LagutaRacingFan Posted October 25, 2021 Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 Batchelor is finished as a top rider. His reactions have slowed massively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappy Posted October 25, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 On that average I'd have him personally, it won't happen though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon1983 Posted October 26, 2021 Report Share Posted October 26, 2021 Batchelor > Panthers is a non-starter even on that average there are other options that are far more likely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappy Posted October 27, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) It'll be interesting to see who Panthers would leave out first if they have to lose another rider other than Pedersen. I hope and expect it not to get ripped up by we may need a couple of changes to the main body. Going by this season's rules 35.5 for 6 riders that fits in MPT, Andersen, Nicholls, Harris and leaves 7.9 for two riders and Palin at reserve as rising star.

Panthers99 Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 Id imagine average will go up from 35. Far too many inflated averages this season. I think possibly 38 with one RS. You can't keep weakening the product and expect mugs (sorry fans) paying near £20 a pop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldyman Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 Wasn't it said at last years agm,, that next season there would be 2 Rs riders,, as part of the 5 year plan. Surely they won't abandon another 5 year plan after on season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
