poole keith 911 Posted April 25, 2016 Stuart Robson was good at Berwick on Sat, sounds like Poole are cheating again but still think 48-42. cheating my arse kyle is in hospital 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BluTiger 21,699 Posted April 25, 2016 Can anybody out there please explain how Stuart Robson can replace an EDR rider ???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hagonshocker 1,956 Posted April 25, 2016 Pretty certain Poole would much rather have Kyle in the side than Stuart Robson...no offence...but it really does throw up the ludicrosity of the FTR and the fact they can move up into the top 5. I mean if you can replace a fast track reserve with a guest who isnt one then does that mean you can permanently replace one as well with say a foreign rider or PL heatleader??!

lisa-colette 6,031 Posted April 25, 2016 Can anybody out there please explain how Stuart Robson can replace an EDR rider ???? He must be on the current guest EDR list? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alan_Jones 1,005 Posted April 25, 2016 He must be on the current guest EDR list? There isn't one, at least not one that the great unwashed are allowed to see. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tellboy 3,662 Posted April 25, 2016 cheating my arse kyle is in hospital Don't think he's saying cheating because he is in hospital.The fact remains Poole can only use an EDR to replace Newman,unless he is in the 1-5 now but didn't think that was until later in the week.

mdmc82 2,878 Posted April 25, 2016 Stars have a fair swap and we have the Robson, who is way over the hill. Robson much stronger rider and started in great form for his PL team. Makes them stronger having him at reserve. When was he added to the list? He must be on the current guest EDR list? No he's not Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tellboy 3,662 Posted April 25, 2016 I didn't see his name on the list that was released, so doesn't seem right to me. If they were to put him on the list he should be graded higher,like Howarth was graded higher than Worrall and Kerr even though they had higher PL averages.

Scott0311 94 Posted April 25, 2016 Looking at the last EDR list it does state "a Tier 1 EDR can be replaced by any rider on the list that is below them OR any PL British rider that has a lower PL average than the missing rider, apart from any PL rider that is in a declared EL 1-5." Based on the latest PL Greensheets Kyle has an average of 6.84 and Robbo's is 6.50 so appears to be legal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel Smith 5,661 Posted April 25, 2016 Looking at the last EDR list it does state "a Tier 1 EDR can be replaced by any rider on the list that is below them OR any PL British rider that has a lower PL average than the missing rider, apart from any PL rider that is in a declared EL 1-5." Based on the latest PL Greensheets Kyle has an average of 6.84 and Robbo's is 6.50 so appears to be legal. The thing is, the EDR list isn't the 2016 regulations though. The regulations state:- FACILITIES a) Absent Rider (1-3) G or ARR Absent Rider (4 or 5) ARR only c) Absent Riders (both 4 and 5) ARR and G d) Absent #6 (if an EDR) G (EDR* only) e) Absent #6 (if not an EDR) G f) Absent #7 G (EDR* only) g) “No Facility” for Absent 1-5 PL G (PL MA of 6.00 or less) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can't just add riders to a list that are a better standard than those on it already, that's just abuse of rule. Add him as a rider who can guest for let's say the top 5 tier 1's. But at 39 he should NOT be on the list anyway that make it a total joke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted April 25, 2016 (edited) Poole have lost both their away meetings so far this season so will be a bit concerned about it happening again. Robson should make them a bit stronger. Edited April 25, 2016 by mdmc82 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel Smith 5,661 Posted April 25, 2016 Poole have lost both their away meetings so far this season so will be a bit concerned about it happening again. Robson should make them a bit stronger. Robson makes them million times stronger around King's Lynn. Poole fans saying otherwise are just trying to justify the blatant rule manipulation yet again 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
