Max Clegg returns to Armadale, complete newcomer Mark Parker rides at #2, Bullets' Danny Phillips guests for Jacob Hook who's riding for Bandits, Kyran Lyden returns from injury and temporarily dropped Mickie Simpson returns immediately as an AR (#8) so could get 7 rides.

szkocjasid Posted June 15, 2023 Report Share Posted June 15, 2023 (edited) Should have Roynon at 5 imo. Good enough to win heat 13! Certainly expect Simpson to get at least 2 rides. Edited June 15, 2023 by szkocjasid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sings4Speedway Posted June 15, 2023 Report Share Posted June 15, 2023 I thought when you have 3 x 3.00 riders its then a BSPL decision who rides where (usually the rider with most experience/previous higher average). Whilst there might not be much to split between Wood & Lyden theres no way Parker should be in the 1-5 .......completely seperate from whether he should be in the 1-7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sings4Speedway Posted June 15, 2023 Report Share Posted June 15, 2023 Also Boughen in the line up suggests no ban......love it when there are soooo many over complicated rules and none of them are enforced 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parker is a sacrificial lamb in this scenario and he knows it, very much in at the deep end but he will give it a go. Lyden coming back from ‘injury’ might be suspect but Booth is not ready for NDL either so be interesting as to who stops on and picks up some points. Championship riders up against second halfers/ amateurs , not a good idea but what choice is there ?

Championship riders up against second halfers/ amateurs , not a good idea but what choice is there ? Thanks found it. Obviously none have gone above 3.00 so Parker gets the rough deal. Hopefully his guarantee for the next couple of matches is worth it. In any declaration where 2 or more riders hold an identical MA (cannot be determined by a 3rd or more decimal point) then the re-declaration must nominate the hierarchical order. Where riders have a previous MA, then the higher placed rider from the previous issue shall retain the higher position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless Leicester’s intention is/was to sign Douglas as an injury replacement for Foord. This should be a comfortable away win. Clegg & Roynon will do very well but the Thompson twins are an admirable match. However James and Cubs’ second strings should have a field day against the Academy’s bottom end.

Yes, back to showing Owen Booth on Edinburgh website. Agree Leicester are favourites but I think this will be pretty close. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have been nice if the SCB published that info on their site. They were happy to document the Kerr / Basso incident but not this one. Now the incredible sulk has 28 days to not pay it whilst still riding and then get the club to pay it anyway. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I recall something similar happened at British Youth Ace Pijiper and Max James couldn’t be banned but their fathers were given fines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes this seems very odd given the age of criminal responsibility is 10 in England (and 12 in Scotland). So said rider could be charged, convicted and sent to a secure unit, but the ACU/SCB couldn't ban him for 28 days? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sings4Speedway Posted June 18, 2023 Report Share Posted June 18, 2023 Surely if you are old enough to race you are old enough to be banned. If all the riders dont have to abide by the same rules then the sport becomes more of a joke. Maybe its time to re-raise the minimum riding age? Can't be old enough only when it suits 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
