SCB 0 Posted May 1, 2016 So if tomorrow's meeting is postponed, I assume it will be an NL guest as I thought you couldn't have a facility for a rider unless he has already ridden for you.Matt will just postpone Wednesday meeting - like he did a couple of years ago when something similar happened!

stevebrum 6,824 Posted May 1, 2016 No reason why tomorrow wont go ahead. The rain is clearing in the early afternoon to leave a dry evening. Nice natural watering. Lokking forward to this. Should be a belter. Every reason given the vile forecast and the promoters need to call off in a heartbeat. I just hope the weather isn't as bad as predicted.

mikebv 10,292 Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) So if tomorrow's meeting is postponed, I assume it will be an NL guest as I thought you couldn't have a facility for a rider unless he has already ridden for you.I think that is the 'old' rule... The 'new' rule states.... Well, to be honest I haven't a clue as it will only get written sometime between now and Wednesday evening, depending on whether the meeting tonight goes ahead or not.... All done 'in the interest of Speedway' obviously! Edited May 2, 2016 by mikebv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arnieg 3,649 Posted May 2, 2016 Bjarne missing his home debut in the return on Wednesday!! r/r An extra ride for Holder but not Ellis!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pirate Baz 218 Posted May 2, 2016 An extra ride for Holder but not Ellis!! Are we sure about that? Rider one above in the averages (Kyle) and the reserves (also Kyle). Have the powers that be considered this scenario? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hagonshocker 1,956 Posted May 2, 2016 Bjarne missing his home debut in the return on Wednesday!! r/r Is that for the same reason Lakeside cast him adrift? Considering the way your lot treated Watt i think that's quite funny! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kyle 7.24Holder 7.13 No they didn't consider it, but the issue has been tested (Swindon v Belle Vue - where Max Fricke didn't get a rider replacement ride, as the rider above Ritchie Worrall was deemed to be reserve Steve Worrall) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd used Chris' old average. I knew really. Just testing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skidder1 7,637 Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) Well if today doesn't go ahead for any reason, as some have suggested, then Poole will not get a facility for Bjarne on Wednesday - as he won't have ridden yet!! If it does go ahead then on Wednesday, Bjarne's (6.55) r/r rides can be taken by Chris Holder (7.17); Buzz (6.48) and Kurtz (5.24) x2. (Ellis 8.00; Andersen 7.33 and Newman 7.24 - if fit - would not be eligible for r/r rides). That's based on today's averages not sure if they change again for Wednesday after tonight's scores?! NB. Newman admitted to hospital again so will miss tonight - replaced by Kerr (presumably from the updated EDR list not yet available to the fans?!)

mdmc82 2,878 Posted May 2, 2016 Kerr is higher up in the draft than Newman according to the latest greensheet available. I found that strange as well. Unless it's because his average is now higher. If that's the case then it needs updated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
