Woz01 3,589 Posted November 7, 2016 (edited) I bloody love Danny Ayers Certainly entertains! Just put him in as he fits into the points limit. Been confirmed that clubs must include two Brits. Edited November 7, 2016 by woz01 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Col 856 Posted November 7, 2016 Please can you tell me Col where are you finding the averages to make a team guesstimate, as there are no 'stickys' with the new averages list in place. Look at the thread I created called converted averages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope he doesn't, one of the worst riders I've ever seen in a Bees 1-5. Edited November 7, 2016 by deanr1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woz01 3,589 Posted November 7, 2016 I hope he doesn't, one of the worst riders I've ever seen in a Bees 1-5. Really? Anyway, the league will not be as strong as it was when he last rode in it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisa-colette 6,037 Posted November 7, 2016 Certainly entertains! Just put him in as he fits into the points limit. . What does that mean? Is he another Garrity??! There should only ever be one of those! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deanr1 203 Posted November 7, 2016 Really? Anyway, the league will not be as strong as it was when he last rode in it. I thought he was a decent signing when he first came to us but apart from 1 very good home meeting he was shockingly bad all season. He seemed to get worse as the season went on and even when he got out in front he would often make mistakes and get passed, he looked out of control to me. I'm not really clued up the averages but unless he is on a very low one, not for me thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The last few home meetings he scored 7+1 7+1 3 12 8+1 and 5 from only 3 rides, not too bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The last few home meetings he scored 7+1 7+1 3 12 8+1 and 5 from only 3 rides, not too bad. I just had a look back on the updates page and his home scores don't seem too bad actually, certainly not as bad as I remember. Although don't forget second strings had easier rides that year against weaker reserves, they could score 4 or 5 just by beating fast track riders. His last few away meetings were all poor apart from one: Leicester 1 Belle Vue 3 Swindon 0 Belle Vue 11+3 Swindon 3+1 Poole 2+1 He scored a combined total of 5 points from the 2 away play off legs at Swindon & Poole, 3 of those points came from other riders falling off.

Yeah definitely poor away from home (he did have some excellent meetings away) but the league will be weaker. Not sure he'll come back anyway to be honest.

It's a shame really, I kept thinking there's a good rider in there somewhere and he'll crack it soon but he never did. Yeah I can't see him back, I think he had a public fall out with Mick Horton over money for a race suit or something like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 0 Posted November 8, 2016 (edited) I just had a look back on the updates page and his home scores don't seem too bad actually, certainly not as bad as I remember. The big thing for me with Woryna is when he was in reserve he wasn't dominating heats 2 and 12. In fact he rarely won a heat 2 or 12, he was poor. When you consider someone like Adam Ellis is only a point higher but spent all season at second string (for his 20 meeting average anyway - apart from a couple in reserve but negated by a couple as heat leader) then Woryna will be a piss poor signing. A converted average from a load of meetings in reserve is an inflated average, so no thanks from me. Don't rate the guy frankly either. Sort of likeable but sort of rubbish.
