A ORLOV 8,628 Posted May 6, 2017 As far as i am aware the averages will come into play a week after they have completed the 4h 4a And what happens if one or two riders have not completed 4h 4a due to missing a meeting or two, you cannot have half the team within the 50 point limit and half within the 42.

I haven't a clue.Maybe the BSPA don't either. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And this was the reason I suggested a changeover date, It would make the situation much clearer, It would be equally fair to all teams, enabling every team to be redeclared at the same time.. So simple...... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kelvinht 354 Posted May 6, 2017 A change over date is simple but unfair. One team could strengthen after only 2 or 3 matches, others after 4 or 5. That would benefit the team that had ridden fewer matches as their stronger revised lineup can be used in more matches. 4 and 4 works, but maybe should apply to the team as whole, so if rider has missed a match or two they would still get a revised average Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is not the usual situation. Surely the quicker you move away from these figures be the better. This 4 + 4 scenario would be ok if all the teams rode the same number of fixtures, but that is not the case. By persueing this idea of unfairness, we are creating more unfairness in the long run as some teams will be transferred before others. The season has started and the clock is ticking, the sooner this switchover happened the better so the league can generate a new set of realistic and fair figures. If we wait till all teams and riders have completed it could be end of June...... Another season wasted...,,... 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lynnboy 254 Posted May 7, 2017 What average would Bridger come in on after the first set of averages think it must be low as he has had a bad start . He is good mate with Rosey too, now he has dropped team revolution and got decent bikes I'm sure he could do a good job 👏 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waytogo28 2,054 Posted May 7, 2017 Not my cup of tea - Lewis Bridger - stick with Holder stands more chance of being successful ( average wise by the end of the season ) or is it suggested that both could be fitted in somehow? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haza 1,774 Posted May 7, 2017 To replace Josh Bailey mate don't know if it would fit just a point I'd like to make can a new no7 be any rider as along as the rider fits under the points limit or does the no 7 have to be a NL rider ? as I was told that the no7 has to be from the NL - can someone confirm this one way or the other please Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We have Rose and Lambert that covers that criteria. It's only the Championship that has to have an NL No7. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

poolebolton 464 Posted May 7, 2017 Does any Lynn fan know why Rose is in Torun with Holder and Kurtz Bro's. Kurtz bro's were there for Aus vs Poland Holder there for Torun, but why Rose just wondering? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
