Blackadder 280 Posted September 2, 2017 From Simon Stead on Sheffield Tigers Twitter this morning:- If the transfer window was still open I'd be dusting my kevlars off for tonight! 3 riders out & no available riders wanting a guest booking. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fromafar 10,358 Posted September 2, 2017 Well, "new J Corbyn Fan", you've given wrong information, at least not entirely accurate. Here's the correct info: Worrall 9.13 ave (Home 9.60, Away 8.68) Lawson 9.06 ave (Home 10.38, Away 7.68) Summers 8.96 ave (Home 9.89, away 8.07) 3 nine point average riders and you're complaining. "Very disappointing" my a"se!!! Incidentally, away averages are usually that bit less than a riders overall average, and conversely the home average tends to be that bit higher than the overall average. That's just how speedway works. So for a nine point ave rider to have an away average of around 8 is.... normal!! While not disagreeing with your facts and figures averages are not all there cracked up to be,what I would say is Lawson and Summers to an extent are " going missing "in the important races at the end of meetings away from home.averages told tell the effort put in by a rider lMO.

Gazc 7,093 Posted September 2, 2017 (edited) From Simon Stead on Sheffield Tigers Twitter this morning:- If the transfer window was still open I'd be dusting my kevlars off for tonight! 3 riders out & no available riders wanting a guest booking. We also have 2 missing nothing you can do about injuries but 5 missing riders from both teams is almost half the field not ideal.

TheScotsman 2,482 Posted September 2, 2017 Highlights the TOTAL STUPIDITY of the BSPA decision to have the transfer deadline so early in the season. And how can the sport have any credibility when the head honcho goes by the name of Buster? Sounds like what he is doing to British speedway. And did he fully recover from the "heart attack" he had at Armadiddle? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gazc 7,093 Posted September 2, 2017 The sport if you can call it that has hit an all time low in this country under Chapmans watch. Reading through the various threads it really makes for depressing reading, how the sport recovers from this shambolic season is anyone's guess, but with fans voting with there feet across the country it wont be easy. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
