  1. Its not this specific rearrangement as such - fully acknowledge this one cant be a Friday It is the Friday situation in general I feel strongly about The one point I have made about this new date is the hypocrisy of saying Fridays cant be used as too many teams are riding yet this date clashes with a Peterborough double header and Newcastle
  2. See you tonight after all or not then Baldy? Come on dont be a miserable £##!
  3. There ultimately financial fair play rules though in football so not unlimited/unchecked
  4. Again this does not relate to the original postponement but the withdrawal of any Friday availability
  5. Didnt say THAT Friday - I said A Friday The reason Fridays have been shelved for Worky is supposedly as too many teams are riding yet a Sunday is agreed when Peterborough have a double header and presumably Newcastle also have a meeting Nothing to do with Scunny being back at full strength by then......??
  6. Wallinger will get no grief from the crowd. All are fully aware he is very unlikely to get a point and will respond accordingly
  7. And how is that better than a Friday? Peterborough have a double header that day!!
  8. Good luck to Connor - very pleased to see him pick up another club so quickly even if 'home' is the same track
  9. Wheres the one for Mission Impossible? General Speedway section???
  10. Just waiting for the right time to announce Belle Vue and Somerset have been given permission to use Fridays perhaps.......
  11. Lets hope neither side finishes with any less too.....
  12. That does happen to an extent - although it is not the full assessed average that is retained The average cannot drop below 4
  13. How ridiculous to have the 2 sides from a 3 team group in a semi final together
  14. Riss has had some reasonably impressive outings at Foxhall and Garcia looked competitive on his recent visit. Both can be entertaining. That combination improves the chances of a home win and provides a chance of some entertainment which will be what the majority want to be persuaded to turn up the next week. 90% 0f fans don't give 2 hoots what happens away
  15. Far too early and if you start to show your hand then history shows others will use it to shaft you at the AGM! Unfortunately despite the position the sport finds itself I don't have great confidence that such self interest will not continue
  16. an unequivocal YES Id say Connor has had a fair go and I think it is with some reluctance that the decision has been made. The play offs this year are at best an outside chance and if we are to miss out then the next priority must be to enhance home results to maintain the home crowd This is why Garcia is seen as a better option as Connors home average is only 2.50 (away is 4) (Danyon is the opposite - home 4.5 away 1.5) With Danyon out and only 2 point replacement possible I can understand why the balance needed to be addressed (or at least attempt to address) Had Danyon scored just 4 more points from the 77 rides in his rolling average then Garcia could've been a direct like for like replacement - that's how tight the difference is between having to make the change this way Connor is indeed unfortunate in many ways and I endorse that we should 'back the Brits' but that needs to be a league directive and whilst that is not the rule changes such as this have to be considered
  17. Agree with that - I see it more as a taster to prove just that and then have a full winter to prepare as best as possible accordingly
