tellboy 3,662 Posted September 1, 2016 I didn't say he was poor just that he has been bad lately as his average has dropped back to what he started on as has Hans average. To be fair to Hans his average now is still well above his season's starting average. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foreverblue 6,096 Posted September 1, 2016 They both started with an assessed average. No they didn't Buckowski's was from 2014 at Leicester. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted September 1, 2016 (edited) We were talking about Buckowski not Kasprzak. Neither started on an assessed average. I know KK definitely did. I dont know about buzz though Edited September 1, 2016 by mdmc82 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If a rider starts the season on the same average he finished on in a previous season that isn't assessed, that is just using that previous season's average.

Crazy robin 2,963 Posted September 1, 2016 Certainly think Poole would be stronger with Brady at reserve & taking extra rides rather than a slow Bjarne who although is getting points generally hasn't the slowest race times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If a rider starts the season on the same average he finished on in a previous season that isn't assessed, that is just using that previous season's average. They were assessed because they were not running off the rolling averages. Their averages are purely 2016 figures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fair enough forgot about the rolling averages for a moment. Certainly think Poole would be stronger with Brady at reserve & taking extra rides rather than a slow Bjarne who although is getting points generally hasn't the slowest race times. Unfortunately it seems we have to stick with Bjarne at reserve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,637 Posted September 1, 2016 ..but only for the next 2 weeks. if this evenings scores are anything to go by. Still, dropping to reserve is far better than being dropped altogether!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Starman2006 2,355 Posted September 1, 2016 Certainly think Poole would be stronger with Brady at reserve & taking extra rides rather than a slow Bjarne who although is getting points generally hasn't the slowest race times. Bjarne certainly wasn't slow tonight... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy robin 2,963 Posted September 2, 2016 (edited) Bjarne certainly wasn't slow tonight... Yes as his team place was in jeopardy😀 Who did he beat, the Worralls, Jacobs, Newman, Ellis & Nicholls. Hardly a great list of riders in there that he should always beat around Poole. Edited September 2, 2016 by Crazy robin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pinny 2,536 Posted September 2, 2016 Cant believe people are shocked Pedersen is scoring as he is. He is way past his best but still scoring solidly enough , OK nothing special but lets be honest he hasnt been a genuine 9 pointer since about 2008 now. Long gone are the days of being a top rider but still steady enough at reserve. As for people saying hes boring and always has been, i find that a myth just like i did when people said it about leigh lanham. I seen pedersen and paul fry have a few superb races at swindon in the pl and over the years have seen bjarne involved in some super races on the tv. Hes been a great servant to UK speedway, time he hangs up his el boots after this season though. Would be nice to see him have one final season in the PL with newcastle where it all started, i am still pretty sure he could easily average 9 in the premier league. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poolebolton 464 Posted September 2, 2016 KK for next season,thoughts??? Ellis and Kurtz as well or maybe Kurtz gets a loan and maybe J.Holder comes in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisa-colette 6,035 Posted September 2, 2016 Yep I would just keep Brady and Ellis and possibly Holder (not sure what the situation is with him?). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
