Mr Blobby 2,651 Posted November 11, 2015 (edited) Shock Horror Blobby wrong again pattern developing on Blobby posting sh*t . Well he averaged over 4 in the PL before also wasn't eligible to guest in the PL last year either so all of that suggests he shouldn't be a 3.00 point reserve, but for some reason he is. So the rules would suggest he shouldn't be a 3.00 but he now is only in speedway. Edited November 11, 2015 by Mr Blobby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheScotsman 2,482 Posted November 11, 2015 Just highlights what a pig's ear they are making of this new rule. Does anyone ever think anything through? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perry is in the PL final GSA for 2014 for Scunthorpe and is listed as a 3.00 He doesn't appear in the final PL GSA for 2015.

So the rules would suggest he shouldn't be a 3.00 but he now is only in speedway. Not eligible to guest and yet did so for Rye house at Somerset? I think Tom is a prime example of exactly who should be on the list. A slight surprise as I though Ollie Greenwood would have been chosen but a decent signing none the less. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
northyorksbear 610 Posted November 11, 2015 He should be a 3 as thats what his average is. Whether he should be in the draft is open to argument. I thought eligibility was straight forward: Is the rider a- British b- eligible to ride in NL c - got a current PL average of 3.00 or less (or never got an average) if all 3 answers are yes then they can take no 7 berth 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A good idea but no doubt wide open to abuse once people realise exactly how it works (and I don't tbh). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fromafar 10,343 Posted November 11, 2015 Perry is in the PL final GSA for 2014 for Scunthorpe and is listed as a 3.00 He doesn't appear in the final PL GSA for 2015. Tom Perry rode 28 matches for Somerset in 2012 And finished with an average of 3.58 how does that made him a 3 pt man this season? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jenga 2,998 Posted November 11, 2015 maybe perry is going to ride in the number 6 position. you know what geds like with numbers and the truth . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fromafar 10,343 Posted November 11, 2015 (edited) maybe perry is going to ride in the number 6 position. you know what geds like with numbers and the truth .He states he's no7 on the website.Branford and Clegg qualifies if Perry does IMO .

jenga 2,998 Posted November 11, 2015 the signing has still not been given the thumbs up yet . branford and clegg should also be able to ride @ . 7 / imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beaky11 36 Posted November 11, 2015 Tom Perry rode 28 matches for Somerset in 2012 And finished with an average of 3.58 how does that made him a 3 pt man this season? The point you are missing with this is simple. Yes in 2012 he may have had a 3.58 average but in 2014 his rolling average was 3.00 when the season finished at Scunthorpe. The rules as far as i understand it are to be eligable for number 7 you have to be: British Eligable for NL have a current PL average of 3.00 or not rode PL before Perry meets all this criteria but Max Clegg (3.48) and Rob Branford (3.40) Don't meet the criteria simple as this i think! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
