Drugs have no part in sport.an illegal substance is not prescription or taking a couple of extra paracetamol. What about wonder boy Darcy Ward when he got suspended for being drunk and had he not been tested then there's every chance he would've ridden the following day potentially endangering opponents. I bet you still thought the sun shined out his hoop, like middleditch etc who continuously backed him after every misdemeanor. Did you still support him?

HGould 2,213 Posted September 12, 2022 Very slow off the mark in Poole about the 2nd Leg of this match on Wednesday. At least Plymouth have confirmed their Teams for both Legs. https://plymouth-speedway.com/latest-news/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To paraphrase Eric Morecambe, they have the same 1-7 but not necessarily in the same order!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Idk about that. But averages won't allow them to use Scott at Poole. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No true, so they would have to use Flint in both meetings, I know we did it years ago against Kings Lynn with Nick Morris and Adam Ellis but I thought the rule had been changed so this didn't happen anymore.

Redtruck 60 Posted September 12, 2022 They’ve got barker at 3 at home and and 1 away but his average is lower than Kennets surely a typo? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HGould 2,213 Posted September 12, 2022 Barker and Kennett appear to have same average to 2 decimal places according to BSPL website. How many decimal places to they go to in terms of splitting / deciding? At some statistical point can they decide who to use at No 1 if the same average?

You're looking at the August averages (both 8.40). For September, Kennett remained on 8.40, while Barker dropped to 8.00. 14 minutes ago, Fromafar said: Might depend on the guests average,Barker might be higher than Flint.Thereagain could be aTypo. The guest assumes the average and team position of the rider he's replacing. Looks like a typo. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
