T.N.T. 355 Posted October 20, 2017 2018 - 35 POINT LIMIT - ONE LEAGUE PICK A TEAM FOR FUN This is not to debate if it's one league, two leagues or any other system, it is however ONE possible way forward so just pick a team using these limits. BOTH RESERVES must be National League riders. That means an average of 3.99 or lower OR British and under 21. The number seven has to have an average of 3.00 or lower and both reserves stay at 6 and 7 all season. If you pick three riders under 3.99 then the lowest two elsewhere be at reserve and the third one can drop to reserve but otherwise reserves stay reserves NO GP RIDERS apart from Craig Cook ..... This is because Tai won't ride in a league on various nights doing nearly 40 meetings ..... Lindgren, Doyle etc will be committed more to the Gps, Sweden and Poland and are possibly the biggest earners here and some only use Britain to gain a works visa ----------------------- Previously posted elsewhere ..... JUST FOR FUN Without doubt the doubling up issue has become the biggest problem in British Speedway with riders being unavailable and more guests having to be used to cover but having set nights won't cure this in all and if they struggle to get 17 fixtures complete before, how are they going to do This is a suggestion, not what the powers to be are bringing in ....... Listed below are the current averages for riders and for those with averages in both leagues, the lowest average has been used. The calculation between leagues used is simply to drop 1.00 for a Championship rider getting their Premiership average, so for example CL rider on 7.43 has a 6.43 PL average. The averages added up and divided by 18 tracks means there is enough riders to fill all tracks with SIX riders to complete under the 33.00 point limit and the last team place will be a protected 2.00 National League rider. There is no GP riders included unless British when calculating the averages, so only Craig Cook is used in the totalling up in a season Britain seriously needs to rebuild and offer fans a more varied and reasonably priced package without having to pay the large amounts the remaining few require that only a few tracks can afford to pay. Also not included are 7.79 Zengota, 6.95 KK, 6.43 Gomolski 8.87 Nick Morris 8.64 Jacob Thorssell 8.48 Kenneth Bjerre 8.45 Craig Cook 8.08 Brady Kurtz 7.75 Hans Andersen 7.63 Troy Batchelor 7.58 Rory Schlein 7.56 Sam Masters 7.43 Scott Nicholls 7.39 Max Fricke 7.37 David Bellego 7.37 Tobias Musielak 7.36 Rob Lambert 7.34 Josh Grajczonek 7.26 Chris Harris 7.26 Richie Worrall 7.13 Kim Nilsson 7.00 Aaron Spud Summers 6.77 Steve Worrall 6.74 Ricky Wells 6.66 Daniel King 6.64 Kyle Howarth 6.49 Nico Covatti 6.47 Timo Lahti 6.47 Charles Wright 6.43 Richard Lawson 6.39 Edward Kennett 6.38 Ty Proctor 6.32 Jason Garrity 6.18 Rohan Tungate 6.10 Lasse Bjerre 6.09 Patrick Hoogaard 6.08 Benjamin Barker 6.00 Kacper Woryna 6.00 QUALITY NEW FOREIGN RIDER 5.94 Ludvig Lindgren 5.91 Phillipe Berge 5.85 Thomas Jorgensen 5.82 Jack Holder 5.80 Claus Vissing 5.78 Nicolai Klindt 5.78 Ulrich Ostergaard 5.75 Erik Riss 5.74 Scott Robson 5.74 Kenneth Hansen 5.68 Kai Huckenbeck 5.64 Justin Sedgeman 5.59 Lewis Bridger 5.56 Adam Ellis 5.55 Jonas B Andersson 5.52 Josh Bates 5.50 Nicolai B Jakobsen 5.36 Kevin Doolan 5.25 Lewis Rose 5.25 Cameron Heeps 5.20 Michael Speedy Palm Toft 5.18 David Howe 5.08!Paul Starke 5.07 Jake Allen 5.06 Lewis Jessie Kerr 5.00 NEW FOREIGN RIDER 4.90 Nike Lunna 4.86 Kyle Newman 4.74 Benji Compton 4.73 Nick Porsing 4.71 Dan Bewley 4.69 Mark Riss 4.67 Bradley Wilson-Dean 4.64 Thomas H Jonasson 4.50 Josh Auty 4.39 Todd Kurtz 4.12 Adam Roynon 4.11 Dan Gappmaier 4.10 Jan Graversen 4.06 Jay Etheridge 4.06 Tino Aarnio 4.00 NEW AMERICAN / AUSSIE RIDERS 4.00* Thomas Busch 4.00* Theo Pjiper ------ All British and Commonwealth below ---- ------ All eligible for NL matches ----- 3.97 Carl Wilkinson 3.74 Matt Williamson 3.72 Ashley Morris 3.67 Joe Jacobs 3.49 Ellis Perks 3.35 Robert Branford 3.24 Simon Lambert 3.24 Danny Ayres 3.21 Zach Wajneicht 3.12 Ben Morley 3.00 Max Clegg 2.95 James Shanes 2.54 Nathan Greaves 2.20 James Sarjeant 2.33 Connor Miuntain 2.02 Mitchell Davey 2.00 NATIONAL LEAGUE RIDERS 18 teams gives you 17 home and 17 away meeting for the league plus you could run a three group series of six teams to give you a further 5 home and 5 away meetings. There is no doubling up apart from NL riders so no clash of dates as happens in two leagues and ALL riders must commit to British Speedway over other leagues apart from their home nation and FIM events where guest or RR faculty will be allowed. Using these figures as a reference use one reserve has to be a 2.00 rider and the other six under 33, see how you would build your team. As a Wolves fan, this really hits them hard as assets have got olde or riding abroad leaving not many here now, but this is done with British Speedway in mind, not the good of one club but for all overall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T.N.T. 355 Posted October 20, 2017 As Wolves don't have many assets left now on this list, here are my two possible teams depending on the availability of Jacob Thorssell.

Reliant Robin 492 Posted October 20, 2017 35 point limit I read that as well....but then got 38 in my head. I think as Champs Swindon should have a 3 point building advantage Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think as Champs Swindon should have a 3 point building advantage Wolves should get an extra 5 for being unlucky 😁 Edited October 20, 2017 by T.N.T. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Welwyn 62 Posted October 20, 2017 Sod it, I'll give it a crack Linus Sundstrom 7? I think Edward Kennett 6.39 Ben Barker 6.08 Scott Robson 5.74 Broc Nicol 4.00 Ellis Perks 3.49 Luke Bowen 2.00 34.7 Very Rye flavour. Big rumours of Linus Sundstrom wanting a UK place next year and he isn't a GP rider so think he's acceptable. As for a 'fantasy' side: Newport Wasps: Krzysztof Kasprazak 6.95 Daniel King 6.66 Ben Barker 6.08 Adam Ellis 5.56 Dan Bewley 4.71 Nathan Greaves 2.54 Connor Mountain 2.33 34.83 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
