martinmauger 584 Posted May 27, 2019 While my interest in speedway remains I don't study the minutiae (yes, had to look up the spelling) as much but why does it appear Jedd List is stuck on a 4pt CMA seemingly no matter what. Surely if he gets to ride a few matches, 3H & 3A or whatever, he will attain 'true' average. Apologies for calling anyone 'Shirley', hey it's a bank holiday....

Any foreigner on an assessed average cannot fall below that average. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A think it has something to do with 'migrant workers',,, and maybe what legibility they have on working here, when other 'British/home grown' workers are seeking employment.

Announce a team with no intention of running seems a touch worse dropping 7 riders before turning a wheel than one after a few meetings. From what I've seen going on at Derwent Park. Speedway had no chance of starting this season. As someone has already said they might not be the only team to go. Which is a massive pity. No one wants to see teams fold. So difficult to start new tracks now with noise issues and the like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But with Rob talking about bringing Jedd List back end of June and there being "few meetings" inbetween. Plus the start stop of the past month ?. How's this supposed to keep up momentum and interest in the Speedway season ? Remembering back to my time at Halifax and The Shay fixture card was jam packed with meetings ! We used to stage 30+ meetings per season with crowds regular up around 3-4 thousand on a Saturday. People fill the gap when there's no Speedway and it becomes habit to kick the habit ? Yes it does. More variation for your money and more value. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

screm 8,050 Posted May 28, 2019 I dont see how Scunthorpe can re-introduce Jedd list after they dropped him a few weeks ago, its not as if he was signed by someone else. Yes there`s the "in the best interests of the sport", whatever that means, and I suppose Scunthorpe can rely on the management committee to pull this round for them but IMO its just plain wrong and if its not against the rules than it should be.

Are you referring to rule 16.3.2.. A rider in a teams declared 1-7 at the end of the previous season and not included in that teams new seasons initial declaration may not be subsequently re-introduced into that team without the express permission of the Directors. Jedd wasn't in Scunnys 1-7 at the end of the previous season. Unless the rule reads wrong I can't see a problem. If the 'and not' actually read 'and if a rider' included in that new teams new seasons initial declaration..then that might be a different scenario. Unless theres another rule im not aware of??

In this case neither can I as Jedd's average remains unchanged. however you could have the scenario where you sign a rider on a (not assessed) average of 6.5. for whatever reason his average drops to 4.00. you the release him just before his new GS average kicks in and replace him with another 6.00 rider. Then one month later reintroduce him to your side by replacing a 4.00 rider with him. Tho and behold he averages 6.00 again and you've strengthened up without strengthening up. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
