Lefty 1,268 Posted December 4, 2012 (edited) Oh dear . . . If race-jackets are a no-no - then what do the three Premier League double up/down guests get to use? I hope we are not relying on random numbers on the side of the bike or the variance in the colour of the helmets? And the Wolves fans can look forward to another "Long Good Friday" shambles at Belle Vue.. . .still we can go home after Heat 10 now Edited December 4, 2012 by Lefty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BWitcher 12,453 Posted December 4, 2012 But they just look so unprofessional flapping in the wind They can look great. Oxford had the right idea a few years back when they'd crossed out a riders name in pen, and scribbled the name of another underneath it. Can't believe it didn't catch on. Another lost chance to make the sport great again. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't believe it didn't catch on. Another lost chance to make the sport great again. Thats right, in the waggy era we had a new rider every week, would have cost a fortune in race jackets if it wasn't for that pen 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigcatdiary 3,165 Posted December 5, 2012 Kling in reserve is fine. And so he should be with 4 years experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T.N.T. 355 Posted December 6, 2012 Race Jackets are not being used in the Elite League as a whole I thought and doubling up riders will have a set of Kevlars as they should be in 90% of the meetings. With certain riders already signed up elsewhere, I am hoping Wolves go with Stuart Robson at reserve alongside Jacob Thorssell as we have been struggling with the tail end for the last few years. Should he move up to the main body will mean another 5+ rider droppingdown. 1 - Tai Woffinden 8.80 2 - Tyron Proctor 5.53 3 - 4 - Ricky Wells 5.79 5 - Fredrik Lindgren 8.68 6 - Stuart Robson 5.09 7 - Jacob Thossell 3.00 leaves 5.61 for the final place. 5.60 Peter Ljung (1) 5.57 Grzegorz Zengota (2) 5.45 Kim Nilsson (6) 5.43 Denis Andersson (5) 5.37 Daniel Nermark (4) 5.24 David Ruud (3) (order of preference) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fish keeper 165 Posted December 6, 2012 TNT take Robson out put Mikkel Michelsen in on a 6 and that leaves 4.69 for the other if MM is as good as people say he is he should do his average Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T.N.T. 355 Posted December 7, 2012 While I can see why they have changed the assessed averages, I think its a bit high for a 18 year old to be set at 6.00 who has mainly ridden in Denmark and in the lower leagues at Sweden. Yes he was a high scorer in the World U21 finals but thats not against Crump. Hancock, Pedersen etc so if it was 5.00 or 5.50 then I would agree he is worth looking at. However, if its more then I would rather go with a team that has Robbo at reserve rather than Ales Dryml !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kester 3,028 Posted December 7, 2012 Yes he was a high scorer in the World U21 finals but thats not against Crump. Hancock, Pedersen etc so if it was 5.00 or 5.50 then I would agree he is worth looking at. He'd never ride against them here either so he'll be alright. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
