Danny is 4th in the Witches averages Lawson is 2nd

Im still struggling to see how Andersen can be allowed to double up (appreciating this years full regs havent surfaced yet) Previously a rider without an established average from the previous season has not been permitted to double up

Perhaps the moment of maximum exposure isnt right just yet for it to be on the website

I admire your optimism Spidy Personally if we manage 4th I would be surprised and delighted Just hoping we are solid at home and get some great racing. For me that will be success this year

A Newcastle thread is never slumming it Depends on how much higher the higher scores are and how much lower the lower scores are

I dont think that gradings would work but do like the idea of the rolling averages not including the lowest few scores (and equally the highest few too)

The stadium was a condition of the planning Only recently there were posts about no further build until the promises re the stadium were kept too

If they wish to complain then it can be pointed out that the building of their house has been completed outside the agreed planning consent If they feel the stadium should be curtailed then perhaps they will accept their house being demolished as part of the enforcement too......

Shocked to hear this news RIP Keith

More likely he already works 6 and therefore its not possible to do 2 more....

Perhaps it was the same person but using different names - Im sure you would understand that situation

The way I understand it is that the reduction applies to the team building total but not the riding positions

Like the Grand Canyon now!

Still better than travelling TO Norwich

I cant for the life of me think where I saw it either but thats the one!

Perhaps I dreamt that he had picked up a hand injury then....

Isnt he injured at the moment Pulled out of the Ben fund Could be a late twist???

Its a total mystery - the suspense is palpable

Fairplay to you Teaboy for your willingness and dedication to be involved

I say leave it as a reminder of what a precarious position speedway finds itself in Perhaps it will help keep people thinking about what needs to be done to improve the situation

The only shock for me was that it was Lawlor that was the one released

Thats right Badge Buster picked up Danny after he became a BSPA asset when Birmingham failed

Great point Steve and one thats important too Look at the numbers and there is no doubt for example Jarek Hampel is a better rider than an Alan Mogridge or a Ben Howe But if I had a time machine to go back and re watch old Witches meetings but could only choose a limited number I know which Id prioritise.....

Indeed it is a distortion - although no more than Steves 18 race formula No1 only beats No1 scenario that I originally repiled to I wasnt really linking it so much to Sidneys view aside from the difficulty in comparing eras which I agree he can tie himself in knots with! The issue is often that the reasons given are pretty random and dont always make sense Id liken that with another analogy (which is a bit bonkers but bear with me!) The discussion is the weather One poster saying global warming means there are less days of rain Another says that cant be true as they have seen the stats that the average person uses their umbrella more often Averages must mean something right What is actually happening is that with more days of sun people are using their umbrellas as parasols (doubling up ) So yes it may be true that umbrellas are being used more but it isnt because it is raining more. The original poster points out the use is actually for the opposite reason but the responder just keeps saying umbrellas are used more Where Sidney goes wrong is he persists in using those inaccurate examples to try and prove his point rather than listen to the reasonings as to why he is misguided
