  1. No 4 is the minimum for any rider other than cat 3 (which is effectively Brit 2 ptrs)
  2. Doesnt matter what his actual average is after 8 meetings his team building average cannot drop below 4
  3. Often in the past I have defended Cam at times when others have been critical At those times Ive felt there has been genuine reasons to justify that Right now unfortunately it is very difficult to find such reasons to do so again Such a frustration to watch this year. I dont want to see him replaced but he certainly needs to sort a few things out and quickly.
  4. Due to a mathematical technicality Jeppesen's 4 point Premiership average converts to a Championship figure of 5.20 Had a diffrent conversion figure been used it wouldve been different A bit like using average match points as opposed to points won minus points lost
  5. Had there been another side in the group and that side managed to make Peterborough drop those home points it makes it very likely THAT team wouldve been second in the group AND therefore in with a chance of being better placed runners up than Sheffield too
  6. A bit like not accepting a simple principle of average points per match??
  7. What if the team in 3rd in 1 group had a better record that the team in 2nd in the other??
  8. And if you put Scunthorpe in the Peterborough group and look at the result the Panthers got at EWR they couldve had the chance to score more points All pure conjecture in both scenarios which leaves us back with the actual situation and using the actual rules which result in Boro qualifying
  9. Agree - the average match points take into account the 2 away defeats for Sheffield that HAVE taken place
  10. You yet again ignore the defeats Pboro 3 pts per home meeting Sheffeiled 3 pts per home meeting Identical records Pboro 3 pts from 2 away ave 1.5 Sheff 4 pts from 3 away ave 1.33° Now which is the better away record??
  11. You fail to take any account for the 2 defeats that Sheffield had whilst Peterborough only had 1 Pboro won half their away meetings and Sheff a third - when I went to school a half was larger than a third Even 1 losing point in either of those wouldve given the Tigers a better match point average and they didnt manage it You talk of mathmatical advantage of a smaller group when the larger group had the advantage of an extra chance to gain an all important losing point That team didnt even have to win or draw to gain an advantage only lose by less!
  12. Wright and Jeppesen out Vissing and Covatti in
  13. Congratualtions to the Pussycats on qualification for the semi finals
  14. Poor effort from the Witches - especially Rory Scored at least 10 points more than ideal
  15. All the best to Ulrich - heres hoping its better than the updates sound
  16. As good an option as any Baldy. Certainly no obvious other newbies
  17. Seems you are right regards 'stuff' Baldy All the best for a speedy recivery Michael
