SCB 15 Posted November 4, 2015 isn't james a tier 1 rider ?? surely he should have been. Why? His PL average is lower than Starke, Bates and Lambert. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,836 Posted November 4, 2015 And yet Coventry don't even have a tier 1 rider really You gotta feel sorry for Coventry, seeing as they had 2 years of Garrity at reserve - NOT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pirate Baz 218 Posted November 4, 2015 Â They achieved those 7/8 point averages because there were two reserve races and in their other two they only faced second strings and other reserves. As I stated in my first post. Â Â it's hypocricy because poole fans have been defending the use of converted PL average for reserves, where clearly they are the side getting the benefit. when it appeared another side were getting the rub of the green, the complaints start. as it turns out, it seem howarth will come in on his EL average. So whoever signs Garrity, Worrall, Kerr, Wright, et. al. aren't benefitting then? Just Poole cheating by utilizing their own assets. Â I have no issues with Howarth, actually having become friends in with him and his dad Geoff when Kyle rode for the Bucs. Not close friends, but always have a chat when we bump into each other around the tracks. My point was over the understanding of the regulation. Unfortunately the 'blinkered against Poole' brigade just use it as another excuse for slagging off. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Newman was lower on the list last season enabling Poole to get a better 2nd pick & the same has happened again this time. Â What more needs to be said as all the other riders you quote are top picks at reserve so not required at Poole & Garrity is going into the top 5 which is what was supposed to happen. Â Kyle Newman has rode more meetings in the Elite league than all the other riders as well. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 15 Posted November 4, 2015 You gotta feel sorry for Coventry, seeing as they had 2 years of Garrity at reserve - NOT. You don't have to feel sorry for Coventry. You just have to question why a club that seems to have more managers and promoters than the rest of the EL combined has managed to screw up so badly!

Tommy Sweetman 480 Posted November 4, 2015 The Bees statement says they chose Sarjeant as their 'protected' rider So what teams protected their riders,and then did Lakeside get first pick of the un-protected riders.? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 15 Posted November 4, 2015 The Bees statement says they chose Sarjeant as their 'protected' rider Exactly. It's bloody madness. It then meant we get first pick for round two and we picked a rider some way off the top in Bates. Why not Starke, Ellis or Nielsen?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
