  1. WRONG. 3 matches in 2011. Please try keep up. You aren't know for getting things right. Piotr never gained an average, that's why he came to Wolves on an assessed average. Coventry used him 3 times in 2011 before Poole did.
  2. If course, we all remember Cov trying to protect Piotr average that made him being re - assessed and used a couple years later by Wolves. Coventry are as guilty as any club. Tho some are more guilty than others. Well said. Sensible post.
  3. Can't see why he would bother. He us only making up the numbers. Is it? So teams never had strong reserves on ridiculously low averages that benefited the team all season before the FTR? Reserves have always been key to the success of any team .In fact I would say they have always been the key ingredient. So nothing new here then. The only major difference is assets being protected which naturally favour those with the strongest assets. What is the answer? Stop bleating about other teams having the best reserves and do something about it. Invest in youth, team up with a NL team , and make younger riders assets to protect them. I would hazard a guess that it's those without assets whining about those who have. Shop playing the green eyed monster and do something about it. We need a clear progression and there are plenty of promising youngsters out there waiting to be encouraged. Don't wait for them to fall into your lap through the draw. Do a bit of homework .
  4. Can't questions the mental strength of Kildemand as he has proven he has what it takes to be classed as one of the best riders in the world right on the world stage. Batchelor however .....
  5. Can you post the link that claims this? I have read the articles from the past week and it says no such thing. The only mention of next year is talk of using assets in 2016.
  6. Just too reckless and at number 4 had easier rides. But you can never fault Killer for not trying. Over trying tho. Sooner he is out the GP'S the better as well.
  7. All the hot air in the press yet all politeness when had the chance to say what they think. What a surprise. At least they haven't come across as the sire losers they did earlier in the day.
  8. Batchelor and kildemand proving they couldn't care less. Dreadful.
  9. Still debatable. Good to see many cov fans travelling to support there team dispute plenty wanting to boycott the match. Good to see some fans arent hypocrites
  10. Coventry getting the luck, Howarth touches the tapes and ref leaves him in. Must be a Bees fan.
  11. Why oh why has Rosco left Rose in heat 8 instead of Wright? Clueless, and towel thrown in already.
  12. Check the averages. North is higher than kennett.
  13. Glad you quoted the original post. Disgraceful comment to make. Hopefully the mods will keep an eye. Someone needs to tell Batchelor he doesn't need to fake his engine problems anymore. Or are the genuine this time? Aces smashing it as expected.
  14. http://www.wolverhamptonwolves.co/news.php?extend.2378 I see Wolves have cancelled the end of season presentation night. Makes worrying reading.
  15. They both have 2 years of EL experience and unofficial averages that can be used. Newman us equal to Garrity in the EL so Pl should have little to do with it.
  16. Guests aren't included in your 1-5. Guests can be replaced at any time, like Ellis has replaced Bates. An understanding of the rules helps.
  17. Like there would have been no pressure on North to perform? It's up to the rest to up their game when another is off colour in a TEAM sport.
  18. Have you not seen Kennett ride in big pressure meetings/races? Always left wanting so no in my opinion they are weakened. Poole are the better team with both teams full strength, not by much but enough to have won both legs.
  19. Riders riding in GP'S and not El really gets my goat. Injury of course is subjective because it us clear Zagar is riding injured. However blatant manipulation of rules/averages is ten times worse in my opinion
  20. I'm not missing anything. Kennett is weaker and usually goes missing when the pressure is on.
  21. If getting Batchelor to drop his average is ok to fit Ward in then so is AJ guesting for Zagar. Both are wrong or are both right?
  22. Puzzling situation. Surely everyone feels for North If his dad is ill? However is really playing golf 24 hrs later the best thing to do?? However are Poole really cheating? ? Kennett for North is worse not better surely? I find the stance that Coventry have taken a little odd too. Still Poole were likely to win anyway or am I missing something?
  23. I'm stating what sky stipulate. No idea who's call it was. No idea what the situation is with North, but don't we allow some compassion? With or without North Poole are too strong IMHO.
  24. It's meant to be 48 hrs before. Just like Cov did cancelling Monday. In the head mates.
