Gavan 5,050 Posted June 26, 2016 As an Ipswich fan i can see the bigger picture and i said at the time that the British Final win shouldnt guarantee Kings place, same as the bad performance from Harris shouldnt discount him, and the gp shouldnt automatically put him back in. I can still see a situation where the 4 riders are Tai, Cook , Harris and Nicholls with Lambert at reserve. Harris is performing consistently in the league and might be coming into form and Nicholls i would always have ahead of King I think Tai and Cook are certaintys and then now its any 2 from 4. Harris, Lambert, Nicholls and King Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rob B 1,257 Posted June 26, 2016 Harris has scored double figures in a lot of league meetings this season as a heatleader and has the highest EL average of any Brit mentioned. And has ridden 3 times at NSS and been poor every time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Blobby 2,662 Posted June 26, 2016 (edited) His form at the new NSS isn't exactly great Edited June 26, 2016 by Mr Blobby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted June 26, 2016 And has ridden 3 times at NSS and been poor every time. And if he is still struggling at the practice then I'm sure Rosco will leave him out of the team. He stil has time to decide Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark 1,497 Posted June 26, 2016 And has ridden 3 times at NSS and been poor every time. agree but maybe Rosco will be arranging some behind closed doors practise. GB riders do not ride all week so they have time to do testing and timing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A ORLOV 8,628 Posted June 26, 2016 agree but maybe Rosco will be arranging some behind closed doors practise. GB riders do not ride all week so they have time to do testing and timing. I hope that is the case and with BV being available most of the week Rosco needs to take advantage of it unless it is not allowed in the SWC rules. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daniel Smith 5,665 Posted June 26, 2016 I hope that is the case and with BV being available most of the week Rosco needs to take advantage of it unless it is not allowed in the SWC rules. GB can have as much practice as they wish but no competitive racing from 5 days prior to the meeting according to the regulations 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mdmc82 2,878 Posted June 27, 2016 (edited) AND before long the Danes, Poles and Swedes too I think it's great if it encourages teams to use more Brits. In the EL teams, this is how many Brits are named in their top 5 Coventry 3 Belle Vue 3 Lakeside. 3 King's Lynn 1 Leicester 0 Poole 0 Swindon 0 Wolverhampton 0 Edited June 27, 2016 by mdmc82 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
