False dawn 2,298 Posted March 31 9 minutes ago, eric i said: Has Zach Cook been dropped? On the contrary. He's been promoted. The new averages that come into force tomorrow put Zach into the top 5 and Scot in the reserve berth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teromaafan 586 Posted March 31 1 hour ago, szkocjasid said: Not really, it's a quirk of the averages that places Nicholls at reserve, normally a potential double figure scorer wouldn't be down there. The fact he's dropped down while riding superbly for the Brummies, should be a team managers dream. Take your point but if Monday is his last meeting then neither of our opinions will mean much!

szkocjasid 3,046 Posted April 1 I know it's not gonna happen but Brummies need to beg Nicholls to stay for another 3 weeks till the EuroSport meetings start, rest Lampart when bringing in Pawlicki. Then when Nicholls leaves, Lampart will take longer to drop to reserve still on his assessed average, so Zach Cook can be your potent reserve. Maybe even Milik will be the reserve?

I do feel he's too negative, as when Birmingham have been bad, he's pointed it out, which is fair. But when they had a couple of decent away performances, didn't give them any credit.

LagutaRacingFan 1,936 Posted April 1 I would sign Artem Laguta. He is a genuine number 1 and will make a big difference in heats 1, 13 and 15. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rather than use Nicholls as a guest (where he rides under the 7.50 average of the rider he was replacing), they redeclared the team with Nicholls as part of the 1-6. They've got enough scope in the averages to redeclare when Pawlicki is available. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FishersGate 522 Posted April 2 Give us B is literally just speaking his mind he has every right to do so. The amount of times I'll be at speedway having a few beers and some of absolutely dross that spills out of me makes me having many regrets the next day haha!
