Baldyman Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 Sure I heard Stead say Fricke will get a chance to make up for his low score tonight on Thursday,,,, but if I was Stead, I would be calling Brady Kurtz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the Play offs ? They technically not in a 1 -7 as the league fixtures are finished.... anyone know a good sports lawyer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheffield can take their pick from a number one not in the play offs to cover their injured number one, but we can’t use one of those clubs’ rising stars to cover our injured rising star. Why? Would love to hear the official reason for this rule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly, but league fixtures are over. Play offs aren’t part of the league fixtures programme technically.

Roger Jacobs Posted September 12, 2023 Report Share Posted September 12, 2023 11 hours ago, TTT said: That's a bit of stupid rule then considering Sheffield can book a No.1 who's already in a 1-7. Not going to lie I don't bother reading the rules from the off because the higher ups make them up as they go along throughout the season. To be fair, they don't make them up, they "interpret" them. Regs often seem to be written without any thought of the possible consequences. They need to be tested, or wargamed, before they are agreed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It stops the use of guests, while encouraging teams to use riders from the available "pool" of Rising Stars, who will be keen to have the chance to continue their learning. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The “pool” isn’t very big and most on that list are completely out of their depth bar a small handful that the others are already using. You obviously can’t run R/R for your number 7 either so this particular rule is a complete nonsense. Anyone who loses their number 1 aren’t particularly disadvantaged as they can pick up a current GP rider, but someone losing their Rising Star are pretty much buggered. You should have the same freedom of choice for your number 7 as you get for your number 1. I don’t see why one has to be different to the other.

2ndbendbeerhut Posted September 12, 2023 Report Share Posted September 12, 2023 From Hawkins " Joe came back in on Monday and did well, he was right in the mix, and he is back in again on Thursday. I know there has been a lot of talk of who we can and can’t use, so to clear that up, we can use anyone that is on the Rising Star list that isn’t in a named one to seven in another team and certainly around Ipswich, Joe is by far the best option." TEAMS IPSWICH: 1. Emil Sayfutdinov 10.14 2. Danyon Hume 4.00 3. Danny King 7.03 © 4. Erik Riss 5.03 5. Jason Doyle 9.21 6. Keynan Rew 4.00 7. Joe Thompson (G) (RS). Team Manager: Ritchie Hawkins SHEFFIELD: 1. Max Fricke (G) 8.85 2. Kyle Howarth 5.62 © 3. Chris Holder 7.16 4. Josh Pickering 6.14 5. Tobiasz Musielak 8.82 6. Kyle Newman (G) 4.00 7.

The main thing IMO that we need to get a grip on is clubs borrowing riders from other teams they directly compete against in the same division. The RS list at least gives a group of riders to pick from in the event of an injury who don't ride for a competitor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gasser90 Posted September 12, 2023 Report Share Posted September 12, 2023 Just watched this meeting back on BSN, I’m sure Ipswich had gates 1&3 in heat 3 and 4 ?! Since when was that a thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellioth4 Posted September 12, 2023 Report Share Posted September 12, 2023 Just watched an exicting and close meeting back on BSN from Sheffield, can see Ipswich pulling the KO Cup title with only 6 points gap to pull back on Thursday. Has anyone got the times so I can complete my racecard please? I have ordered programmes from both meetings to complete and read too.

Siggytastic Posted September 14, 2023 Report Share Posted September 14, 2023 If it's a tie overall, is it a replay or superheat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ipswich did a job on Sheffield and I expect them to win quite easily. The 6 points will probably be wiped out early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
