Might explain his haphazard scoring at the end of the season. Score enough to earn a wage yet keep his average attractive to teams closer to home. 

He struggled at a couple of tracks but averaged over 6.5 in the playoff meetings so think you are being a bit unfair.

Armadale? That would be good news

Perhaps the comment should be "That could be good news". Without details it is not necessarily good news. They might double our rent as many owners of tracks in the south have done. Current owners have been supportive and have given security in recent years.

Wish we could organise something so that speedway "people" buy the stadium. Dare I say in a similar way to Glasgow.

His loss

I'd say it's his gain as it is for the majority of riders who sign for them. For one season at least.

I just think he had a poor year, extremely underwhelming considering where he was at pre covid. Hopefully two new tracks for him next year will spark a breakthrough.

Doubt anybody wanting to buy Armadale and continue it to be a speedway venue would be stupid enough to double the rent.They would have a redundant stadium on their hands .IMO.

It really doesn't. Point was was keeping average low, then in meetings where didn't count towards his average, scores much better. Which you yourself pointed out as well

Original post stated ‘end of season’… In the 4 matches that qualify he scored a 7 and a 10, struggled at Leicester and Newcastle but there was no lack of effort.

Fair point. Having seen him at ashfield, I'd say a bigger, faster track be good for his development. Very poor both visits
