Surely the problem is signing a new rider, redeclaring and then wanting a full 'facility' to cover his absence before he's ridden for the club, rather than the 75% guest facility?

Jaizer Posted August 22, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 That was my thoughts all along people (person) on the management committees nose out of joint and fighting against it.

Lets focus on our plastic trophy on our guff track and do all we can to try not facing a team that is not at full capacity.......well done, NOT. Show some balls and face a team fair and square as per the rule book and cut the nonsense out..........or are you that scared!!!???

These away meetings mean absolutely 0 to the outcome of the league standings. The longer they can drag this out the greater the chance we won't get a replacement in before the 28th and be stuck with RR for the playoffs, meaning Claus, Ace and Lee taking the RR rides. How can a Governing body have the promoters of rival clubs making decisions on who can and can't sign for an opposition team. The PDA came out of the madness of the BDO and look where both parties are now. So maybe it's time to say thank you goodbye. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's how ridiculous occurrences happen and how people can bend the rules to suit their own agenda. How long have we been saying this for? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noelinho Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 One person has pointed out that because he’s got an assessed average of 5 in the Premiership, that would be converted to 7.5 for the Championship. If that’s the case, he wouldn’t fit - but have there been occasions where that’s not been followed? I don’t have the rulebook, so I don’t know if that applies mid-season or is between seasons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The poster was saying that the conversion rate of 1.5 should be applied but that is not the case with assessed riders. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
