Ok no gambles, so we will stick with Jason King or Klaus Jacobson at least we know what they will score.
-
This saying" A steal on his average" is a bit of a myth IMO. That IS his average.
-
I would dispute that it lacks ambition, but it is a gamble . The rules of speedway means that Promotions have to take a chance and find riders who might be a future prospect in the sport and bring them in on a low average.The sport needs a radical shake -up IMO. How can you predict how Albin will fare and least he is young and keen which is a better gamble than a Jason King type signing. I have always maintained the "averages" are killing the sport and I stick by that statement.
-
Hard to judge Albin on what we seen ,but he will have another season in Argentina before next season so he could improve significantly in the close season" who knows"

Workington V Berwick - Outstanding Fixture

I would agree with you. -
Workington V Berwick - Outstanding Fixture
Fromafar replied to BuxtonTiger's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
The Berwick website states 27th if we dont qualify or Sun 28th if we do qualify,so unless the weather puts it off it looks like it will be run.Bearing in mind Workington will get fined if the don't complete their fixtures they will try to run it IMO -
I think we need to get to the end of the season before we think anything regarding next season, that way will will have the correct Green sheet averages

Did you write the article

Is Speedway Too Expensive Now ?
Fromafar replied to Super Blue's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Is there a standard rate of points money in the Promoters guidelines,or is there a minimum rate written down anywhere. -
Workington V Berwick - Outstanding Fixture
Fromafar replied to BuxtonTiger's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
In the context that we don't get to the play-off Final yes .Otherwise 28th -

Its on Bandits Website ,and if we get to the Play-offs Finals it will be the put back to the 28th at Worky -
The track was not good for racers like Holder IMO.Nicki just stuck too the midtrack slick line and got a shock when MJJ past him on the inside.MJJ rode that line all night with success.
-
Thats probably true after the season that they have just had IMO
-
Machin is a Promoter who can see where the sport is going but can't seem to do anything about it.You can't blame him if he is not willing to lose a lot of money paying over the odds to run the sport.
-
I find it strange that the future is decided by how many people turn up at a Hotel.If 600or700 hundred turn up where are they going to put them all.After all the is near enough what crowd levels have to be at PL level.Would it not be a better Idea to address the crowd at Ashfield and tell them whats going on.A more realistic option IMO. Lets face it they already know what has happened at the club.Whatever the outcome I wish the Tigers have a successful takeover
-
Holder for me,great skill and talent not just a gating Tart. Nicki does provide the "entertainment" though.
-
I Hear Berwick have put in an offer to Glasgow for him .Dozen Scotch Pies +Dozen 1/4 Pounders.
-
I do agree that our track shape is a burden we have .
-
the14th oct is the PLRC at Sheffield

Harris Threatens To Quit Team Gb
Fromafar replied to JT's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Last resort comments me thinks!!!!!!! -
Agree Barrett and Dyer would solve reserve problem for next season.Both could improve IMO which is what you need.
-
You don't seem to grasp that some Promoters are not going to bankrupt the club for the sake of riders demand,There are a lot of clubs in financial difficuties IMO.Machin has promoted long enough now to recognise paying over the odds ,unfortunately there are other Promotions who pay big money and are in difficulty.There will have to be big changes in the winter if all the clubs want to survive IMO.Fisher IMO is very expensive hence lack of offers like i said he is a good rider though
-
Cheque Book Speedway i'm afraid .Admission back up to £20 if you want him IMO. Good rider though.
-
Nobody has said they are from what I read,someone just posted article the was in a local paper which said he had an interest.

I would agree,anybody with his back -up Team would struggle given their track record.But he seems happy with them and thats all the counts.
