Many time we have let riders averages drop, only for other teams to get the benefit. No I think Harris is at his level and that average is only going one way.

Just now, Spl77 said: No I think Harris is at his level and that average is only going one way. If you have Harris along with King and Heeps you have 3 riders who won't increase their scoring over the season. Harris is on the way down, King will stay the same or drop slightly and Heeps has a slight improvement left. Then add in Klint that's 4 riders with no real improvement to be gained from there starting figures. Allen is a must but a full season in the top 5 again might see no improvement in scoring. Then your at 5 riders who will sit at the same level. I think we need decent changes from last season to maintain the level, we hit last season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyman 6,243 Posted December 3, 2019 We hit a good level due to our reserves getting near on 20 a meeting for a lot of the season,,, as soon as that stopped we were pants. Our best rider in the play off final,,, a reserve. As you have pointed out, we could have 5 riders with no improvement in them,,,,, so without a couple of reserves that could add a couple of points each,,, we will have the season most thought we would have had one just gone.

Wouldn’t win all our home meetings with that side imo, teams with a strong top end like Swindon for example would come and keep it close by getting lots of 3-3’s and the odd 4-2 and then hts 13-15 would have a clear advantage and turn us over Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
