Mr Blobby 2,662 Posted January 1, 2016 Surely can't be Davey? Nothing against him but it has to be a Brit born and bred. Happy New Year to all my Edinburgh friends. All you need is a British passport and 3.00 point average and your sorted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stewmac 476 Posted January 1, 2016 To have any chance of success you need riders who can increase their averages. There's no way Mitchell Davey fits that bill I'm afraid.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Blobby 2,662 Posted January 1, 2016 To have any chance of success you need riders who can increase their averages. There's no way Mitchell Davey fits that bill I'm afraid.... The NL rider only needs to go out and beat his fellow number 7 IMO and if he can occasionally pick up points in other rides then great. I'm sure Mitchell is capable of beating the majority if not all of the other number 7s. That's if it is Mitchell of course. I'm sure all will be reveilled in the next month or so.

stewmac 476 Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) That's a flawed way of thinking Mr Blobby. Why? Because as the season goes on, the other number 7s will improve and therefore start beating Davey. He has never improved. That's my reason for rejecting him as a potential number 7. Edited January 1, 2016 by stewmac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadders 4,135 Posted January 1, 2016 Am I reading this right, Mitchell Davey as a potential 3 point number 7? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dekker 239 Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) <snip>it requires a unique bike set up which puts many away riders at a disadvantage straight away. Attitude comes into it too and as you say some riders are beaten before they start.</snip> The other thing about the dale is for a small track its fairly grippy, weather permitting, this gives most lower tier riders issues as they only see slick tracks 90% of the time. Seems blobby is putting down the groundwork for Davey at 7, although i've seen some refer to itas the brit rule which is a misnomer in some ways.

stewmac 476 Posted January 1, 2016 Davey wouldn't be a gamble on 3 points. He'd be a complete waste of 3 points. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spin king 1,923 Posted January 1, 2016 I don't see how Mitch Davey would be allowed to take up the number 7 role. Does he have a British passport, if not then I would imagine that he not be allowed to take the role. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
