Also the League campaign is only once home and away so a poor start is more difficult to make up.
Of course IF the League Cup fixtures count towards averages a team could choose to sacrifice that competition.....
Possibly but not certain. Averages were reset in 2017 rather than a continuation of rolling average.Harris for example dropped down using only his 2017 Prem figure.
Any others that only rode Prem in 2017 should be dealt with the same way.
Thas not to say they will be mind! As ever could depend on whos asking who.
Apparently an average cap for those without an existing Champ figure has been introduced preventing a limited number of riders (one of which is Scott) dropping down.
Dont know as not aware of where the cut off set or who else may want to d/u that hasnt already got a Champ average
Edit There may be more than 1 other. I may have taken 'it only affects a couple of riders' too literally
Perhaps there is an agenda that someone has...
As I understand it only affects 1 other rider other than Scott so seems to fall in a similar category as the Prem 1 over 8 rule.
Unfortunately I think the jealousy will only build.
I hope you guys can let it flow over and enjoy what you have - a forward thinking proactive promotion that wants to redefine how to do things and show the ways that others should follow.
Speedway needs more like this if it is to re-establish itself and get back to any kind of 'glory days' as a whole.
I still hope you finish 2nd to Ipswich mind 👍
Ipswich has a great profile in the local press and a partnership with the football club.
Both will be enhanced by knowing the full team as early as possible for ongoing promoting initiatives.
