Cast1rn Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 (edited) I smell what he's stepping in but maybe put it across in a more discreet manner. Glasgow are thought to be too "friendly" with their riders and not ruthless enough. Unlike our friends in the very far south who will drop you for dropping a chain. This wasn't the case when they dropped Sedgy at the midway point ironically bringing in Marcin, the reality that season Justin wasn't the only weak link. If there was someone around that was on a 4 I'm convinced he would've already been put in place. Changing Marcin I can't see it benefiting us greatly, what we going to get? maybe 2 or 3 points more. I would assume we stick as is, then if there's a two pointer that's blowing the NDL apart throw them in in August once we've hopefully secured the playoffs. Ashtons name has been thrown about a lot, so I look forward to seeing him a week on Sunday where he'll be up against some seasoned veteran under 21's.

Ashtons name has been thrown about a lot, so I look forward to seeing him a week on Sunday where he'll be up against some seasoned veteran under 21's. Let's be honest, Glasgow have already secured the play-offs. No matter how good Boughen is going, it would be very risky to run with 2 x 2.00 riders in the ay-offs (of course Pijper may be a 3.5 rider by then but not a "senior" reserve). You also can't guarantee a replacement will end up being stronger. Nowak was stronger than Sedgmen at home, but far weaker away. Previous to that they dropped James Sarjeant for Mikkel B Andersen who weakened the team! Using unofficial averages from 2021 Sedgmen (6.24/5.03) dropped for Nowak (7.00/2.55). Then in 2019 Sarjeant (3.79/3.72) dropped for Andersen (2.32/2.77) Edited July 8, 2023 by szkocjasid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beirao Posted July 9, 2023 Report Share Posted July 9, 2023 Don't believe the team manager makes the "hire and fire decisons" and reckon he plays a minor role in team selection each year. This stuff is way above his pay grade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcins only had 3 away meetings in 2021, when he turned up at Armadale he thought it was the training track, and Berwick he couldn't turn the bike I think he scored one at Edinburgh and 0 at Berwick and then fairly decently at Poole. Look at his scoring at both tracks this year, not from reserve, which is why I don't understand the "let's get rid of Marcin" brigade. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnieg Posted July 9, 2023 Report Share Posted July 9, 2023 Unless you can get Tarasenko on 5.00 ( which I presume should be the case following the Rew precedent) stick with Marcin - signed on 5, averaging 5, and likely to improve as he continues to acclimatise to British speedway). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he didn't fit with the averages. Not sure if Connor was exactly the same situation, but I personally think it was a good move for him to race somewhere else. Good experience for someone still young in the sport. Not convinced Connor is doing much better at Redcar than he would have done at Ashfield this year. Nowak and Vissing seemed too good to pass up on with 5.00 averages.Would we have a better balanced side with Harris, Nowak, Vissing, Hume, Basso , Bailey and Pijper? Perhaps but it would be a brave move to release Brennan, though he does seem to have plateaued this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outwith the Poole meeting he's been basically scoring his average away from home. If anything, he's not been as good at Ashfield as he was previously. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s had a couple of rough meetings recently, but overall he’s been fantastic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted July 9, 2023 Report Share Posted July 9, 2023 Essentially it's Complin who isn't reaching the heights expected. He was a gamble but it seemed like a calculated one bearing in mind his experience, NL scores and a few decent Champ performances last year.

Do you not think they we’re expecting more though.Basically he could score his average and only beat 1opposition rider once.Averages don’t always tell the story IMO.
