  1. Any changes Wolves make would need to be like for like. If would be ridiculous to say if Freddie or Jacob was injured they would need to be replaced by a 3 pointer. Rules should look after ALL clubs I agree but to say Wolves should be made to weaken is quite frankly worse than helping out the lower clubs. It's basically saying every club who got their team building right should be penalised for it during the season, that would be the most dangerous thing to suggest.
  2. Zach was signed as a Lakeside asset before the end of last season. Can't see what the issue is??
  3. Certainly seems his job is more important than speedway then!
  4. Knight seems to lack commitment (how many times has he taken time out?), but has ability. Seems happy to be a big fish in a little pond and decide when he wants to start or finish a season. Not sure he will ever be committed enough to make more of the chances he has. Always great value to watch tho.
  5. Nothing wrong in that. Exactly what Wolves did last year by bringing in a better rider on a lower average. If Tungate can kick on in the 2nd half of the season (like he did last season) then if puts the Aces as the team to beat come September.
  6. Nonsense. Ifs ifs ifs. JPB and Layne didn't score to their average either. It's no good being in scoring positions if you can't stay on the bike. Hurry was the let down for the Hammers, likewise the 2 mentioned Brummies were from a scoring perspective.
  7. I see an Aces win here who are starting to look the team to beat since the changes.
  8. They are only copying what Wolves did last year by bringing in a better rider on a lower average! Tongue firmly in cheek with that comment of course.
  9. Ooops apologies! I was looking at the left hand column total (previous total). It's 48.48.
  10. He would be a perfect guest. Not a lot else tho.
  11. I see new averages have been issued and Wolves have the highest total of all teams - 48.48 If the new limit has been reduced to 42 then we have only 4.34 to replace Riss. Freddie 10.45 Jacob. 8.60 Rory 8.29 Sam 8.08 Howarth 6.79 Riss 4.34 Nathan 2.25 surely that limits our options considerably? ? Edited for accuracy.
  12. If the team building limit is set at 42 then only Leicester, Rye and Swindon can strengthen up. Do we know if that part is still correct too?
  13. It's so hard to know what averages count until the new averages come out. Will Riss keep his 4 or his new Championship average of 6.74?? OR his real time Wolves average of 5.68?? The averages are meant to be a leveller but the overcomplicated nature for this year is giving us all a nightmare! Maybe, like every club, they are waiting to see what the new averages are before they make a decision? But surely a decision needs making regards replacing or guests/temporary signing.
  14. Hopefully back on thread after the usual suspects derailed it as per usual. ... The injury to Mark is a tricky one to cover IMHO. Being out for 6 weeks is a long time to cover with guests who are likely to be less capable of raising to the standards set by Riss so far. I'd hate to see him replaced as he is someone worth persevering with but is there anyone that could come in as a temporary signing on a similar average?? Unless with the changes of averages (if and when it happens) it gives us some leeway to bring another rider in then I think the only suitable thing would be to run with guests till he is ready to come back. We are in a similar position to Poole (although I grant you Poole are far worse affected than us with missing Klindt) in that we are likely to struggle to find adequate cover for a vital position.
  15. I've already answered that question. I call people the word who are behaving like one. By the way you do realise you are disrupting THIS thread by being argumentative, as usual. #bangsheadagainstwall.
  16. Aaah you poor thing. There are not rules for some and not for others in the slightest. You have used the T word plenty and probably with no real reason. I've only called posters that word if their postings suggest they are. Thanks for confirming all I need to know. I've been banned in the past for altering someone's post in a reply. (was meant as a laugh but hey ho). Certain posters have been banned for being abusive and personal and deservedly so. So no, there isn't one rule for posters like you and others like you and rules for other posters.
  17. As usual total nonsense. Nobody is getting away with anything. If you call someone the T word it might be because they are. So no need for any ban. You are one of the worst anyway. As usual the worst culprits are all over a thread.
  18. Hopefully he will score more than 6 for the pirates then eh.
  19. Very true. All Poole's issue stem from having an under performing number one. I'm amazed that it's always other riders that have to pay the price for an under performer. No doubt he will be back anytime soon. But will have anything changed?
  20. And sadly no one has seen you ride, nor believes you did. Belittling people is clearly something that makes you happy. Shame it's wasted here tho.
