Rye House 2016

[GWC 495]

He clearly needs some intensive training to get up to good NL standard.

Danny Ayres scores 5 plus 1 at Sheffield of all places and shows that given encouragement there are riders

in our leagues that can do a good job.

Not sure if you can replace Karger, being an assesed rider new to the league this year you have to stick with him, unless he quits or has a long term injury,

It's true that a rider on an assessed average cannot be removed from a re-declaration but once he has completed 4 h 4a he qualifies for a true average. Although this is not allowed to drop below 5.00 it is no longer assessed so there is no reason why he cannot be removed from the line-up. In the case of Karger he will receive a true average seven days after Rye's trip to Sheffield next Thursday. There is no precedent yet, but Rye House are not the only club affected by this '5.00' ruling and no doubt it is something else that hasn't been thought through properly. I'm sure Rob Godfrey has the answer though!

Kennett getting plenty of praise last night, but only managed 4 points tonight.

Retired in his 4th ride and last in his final ride. Bike troubles perhaps?

Rene Bach and Rob Branford would fit in place of Lanham and Karger.

Well if the Witches are to progress tonight need Kennett on the same sort of form and Robson to . Can't see it really think the Witches will be out of the cup but I'll be there tonight along with Baldyman. What's the weather forecast at the moment down there and for later?

Thanks Shads

But it's a speedway stadium, so it won't feel anywhere near as warm as that. Note to self, stay away from the fish Darren.

Safe option would be a pukka pie. Cornish pasties are decent

Does anyone know if Leigh Lanham will be fit for Monday's meeting?

[Alan_Jones 1,005]

Fit or not, he won't be riding as it's within the the 9 day suspension period for concussion.

Karger is out as well with wrist injury so guess it will be R/R and Rob Branford.

 

And looks like Lykke moves to reserve for June.

Presume the new averages means Karger moves up in to the top 5 with Lykke dropping to res,. Helps the team ,, but hardly helps Karger,,if this is indeed the case can Karger survive

Lanham missing one meeting at least. Karger out for a couple of weeks minimum
