Surely the sport is about entertainment and excitment and in all fairness I would much prefer to watch Tommy Gun flying round Scunny than (and no disrespect) Tero Aarnio. This is where Speedway starts to look silly. 0.16 of a point I ask you ?arrrgh I agree totally I’m not saying it’s a good thing ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There has to be a cut off point somewhere! 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is where Speedway starts to look silly. 0.16 of a point I ask you ?arrrgh 0.16 doesn't stop Scunny signing Jorgensen, just stops him signing with the other 6. Replace Kinsley with a 2.00 man or Kennedy with MacDonald & Jorgensen fits - simple! There will always be potential teams just over the points limit, but if you allow a team to be 0.16 over, another will want to declare 0.25 over & so on! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
