No doubt gone through all this before but what average is Woryna in Poland? And the other Poole Pole? 

Matt S average is 2.361 in Poland which translates to 9.44. 

Woryna who rode Extraliga was 1.973 which translates to 7.89.

Which just goes to show the nonsense of allowing some riders to keep outdated averages and others lumbered with an average that can't get them a team place in the UK.

The thing I find nuts is that Buster sent Matt S on Loan knowing his average.

I expect it all came down to pounds, shillings and pence.

How the hell are they are 4 averages then?  It's madness.  Our new guy Kasper Andersen is on a 5!

I need to find out the answer to this one ..... it's just so wrong!

I imagine there was some deal with loans around NKI and Matt S! 

 

Even as a Poole fan it’s a bit of a joke. But ford gets away with it and other promoters know his team months in advance.

Swindon gained from a 6 rider team to eventual winners due to Tobi not getting a new average like everyone else did at the start of the season & him doing even better than all fans thought by making a mockery of that decision.

If Poole don’t win the league with this team then the promoter & team manager should hang their heads in shame & resign.

Even Ronnie Russell & Jim Lynch would stroll the league with the Poole line up.

My money will be on Leicester as the difference of Vaculik on a 8 not his original 9 allowed them to bring Hans in which is a great move.

No value in betting on Poole.

Yes the promotors are weak & deserve all the stick & money worries they have letting it happen.

When our friends from Poland sees what averages they are on here ,   it must show them,    when it come to running a competitive Speedway League,  we haven't got a clue...

And people wonder why the fans don't come anymore....

I assumed Kasper's average was a misprint but apparently not. Doesn't make an awful lot of difference as I think the other six riders would have been signed regardless but it would be interesting to know why he is a five and not four. Perhaps he has achieved more in Europe than I had assumed.

I think people are under rating KL.

Poole leicester and belle vue imo look nailed on for the playoffs. But i yhink there is very littke between the other 5.

KL have a top two as good as any, and arguably the strongest reserves. The only area they are lacking is 3rd HL, but Jorgensen could do ok, and arguably if your top two and reserves do the job you csn ger awsy with being weak in this area. Although i think swinfon will finish 4th, i do think KL are more likely to scrspe into the play offs than finish bottom, wheras many seem to hsve them lined up as wooden spooners.

I tend to agree, I think KL are being under rated. Lambert & NKI are a match for anyone, and the others all have potential to up their averages.

1. Poole
2. Belle Vue
3. Swindon
4. Leicester
5. Kings Lynn
6. Somerset
7. Wolverhampton
8. Rye House
