Mimmo 1,070 Posted November 16, 2017 Pretty sure King's Lynn would be a Thursday race night but would prefer a Monday night. Can't make Thursday's Oh dear, and I can make Thursday night, but not Monday. One of us might miss out next season!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BWitcher 12,453 Posted November 16, 2017 No.. Its the sport that's the joke...which is why it's down to its minimal support. See any sponsors lined up?? No? Obviously they don't want to be associated with such a joke. What's gonna happen when the oldies pass on? The joke as I know it will pass on with them. Which has nothing at all to do with the scoring system. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red Flag 454 Posted November 16, 2017 So the AGM is tomo. Looks set to be set race nights (mon & Thursday) there for stopping missing riders So....... What day would you prefer????? Mon or Thurs And if it was the same team week in week out with no guest (excluding injuries of course) do you think the crowds would improve???? For me i'd go with Monday for belle vue And I think the crowd could improve. And if only 1 rider is Injured then I think they should have to use R/R no matter where in the team they are. All teams should have to name a no8 at start of season and if a reserve is injured then the no8 replaces Wolves will have to be Monday's, no other choice with dogs on a Thursday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daniel Smith 5,659 Posted November 16, 2017 Thought you were finished with King's Lynn speedway It's about what's in the improvement plan that Buster (yet again) has promised But I does look like the choice has been taken out of my hands anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waytogo28 2,054 Posted November 16, 2017 Oxymoron that - Buster and Improvement Plan. Needs someone truly committed to it with lots of time and that's not Buster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BWitcher 12,453 Posted November 16, 2017 (edited) Scoring system is too complex for the speedway demographic I've never met anyone who doesn't understand it instantly. Next you'll be telling us you tried to explain it to your mate in the pub and he was howling with laughter. Edited November 16, 2017 by BWitcher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hodgy 976 Posted November 16, 2017 Scoring system is too complex for the speedway demographic The current points system is just perfect as it is. Anyone that finds it complexed and difficult to understand should seek help. Numerous issues certainly need addressing - this isn’t one of them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lisa-colette 6,024 Posted November 16, 2017 Let's hope football start dishing out points for losing by the odd goal 😉Well Eddie Howe thought the scoring system was a good idea....or was,that the double points tactical? Was definitely one of them! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BWitcher 12,453 Posted November 16, 2017 Let's hope football start dishing out points for losing by the odd goal Never heard of the away goals rule then.. Cricket, Rugby two other sports that award points other than for just winning the game. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
