stevebrum 6,836 Posted July 14, 2016 (edited) That's only 2 riders out of 9 King, Bates, Garrity, Barker, Sarjeant, Roynon all ride PL. Woryna PL quality. King is EL standard.That's 3 out of 7 as that's how many ride in a meeting. just less than 50%, 43%. Edited July 14, 2016 by stevebrum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted July 14, 2016 That's not just you club though is it ? Most teams have more PL standard riders than " Stars " Anybody know what % of riders only ride Elite ? Coventry: 6 King's Lynn: 5 Belle Vue 4 Leicester: 4 Lakeside: 4 Swindon: 4 Wolves: 4 Poole 3 That's how many PL riders there are per team Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fundinfan 41 Posted July 14, 2016 Nice to see David Bellego and Ben Barker in Friday's lineup. I mentioned these two riders only a couple of weeks ago as being useful to the Bees cause. perhaps someone does read the forums from Coventry after all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted July 14, 2016 (edited) Why do our management keep using Sarjeant ahead of Roynon? James was miles behind in most races. He's sadly gone backwards I still can't get how the bees website seems to think we are still making a push for the play offs. Have they not seen the team we have!

Woz01 3,589 Posted July 14, 2016 Bellego is a decent option to be fair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted July 14, 2016 (edited) Ellis Perks guests in place of Kyle Newman. He rides Brandon well in NL Adam Ellis returns to the side which is good news for Poole. Edited July 14, 2016 by mdmc82 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Game On 1,117 Posted July 14, 2016 Bellego is a decent option to be fair. Oh yes he did well guesting four years ago. I still can't get how the bees website seems to think we are still making a push for the play offs. Have they not seen the team we have! Because they are a clueless bunch of muppets.

Bee 26 426 Posted July 14, 2016 Let's hope he still remembers his way round after 4 years then! Can't be any worse than the pole and will probably score more 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't agree that Roynon is a better option than Sarj these days, he has been a better rider earlier in his career but not now. Sadly all those injuries have taken their toll on the lad.

Sadly all those injuries have taken their toll on the lad. Sarjeant is riding for Ipswich tonight and so far has T, FX He was great in 2014 but has gone backwards since then and seems to have lost all confidence.

heathen chemistry 660 Posted July 14, 2016 at the moment sarjeant is ahead of roynon, id the management had ambitions of the play off then a radical move was needed a heat leader should of been sought to replace garrity , then when garrity is fit he would probly of been able to replace worryna .. but judging by recent attendances why would mick chuck money away...

deanr1 203 Posted July 14, 2016 Sarjeant is riding for Ipswich tonight and so far has T, FX He was great in 2014 but has gone backwards since then and seems to have lost all confidence. I agree about Sarj, I think he's found his level and won't improve much in the EL. I just don't see Roynon as any better, or even as good. Sarj always strikes me very much as a confidence rider, it only takes him to have a bad meeting or two and his head drops and he starts to struggle. It's a shame because he's a very good rider when he's at his best. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted July 14, 2016 Sarjeant has withdrawn from Ipswich's meeting after T, FX, 1. It doesn't say why but I assume he hurt himself when he fell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
