  1. I think Karger may be hunting for a pen and ready to compose his resignation letter.....
  2. Did I miss the announcenment of the hosepipe ban??
  3. If you saw the state of some of the back tyres at the end you woukd know exactly how hard and slick it was ..... Not enough from the Witches sadly - had it there for the taking but let it slip away.
  4. Macca is that hoody Canterbury the brand or as in the Bulldogs??
  5. Id imagine you would have the choice if you wished to designate it that way. The problem would come with then wanting to replace Stokes - I don't see that Perry would then be eligible to return to the no7 position with an average 2.5 higher than the rider he was replacing and the team above the limit.
  6. It will be interesting to see what happens with Belle Vues rearranged fixtures and whether they will still get priority should they have to use a date already in the Boro list....
  7. he could be replaced - by Stokes. Its then just a case of what fits.....
  8. The switch does highlight another issue with redeclarations. Boro are timing this before Perry obtains his new average (due to rise from 3 to 5.58 as from 15/5) Before they even ride as a1-7 the team total could actually be above 44. Totally within the rules as they stand but not right IMO. I think on redeclaration the whole of the proposed 1-7 should have their averages updated to the current position. And before I'm accused of having a go at the pussycats (I know I have history for that! wink) it is a point I have made consistently previously as a general point not just now.
  9. nothing would surprise me with the way things are!But if he does what happens to the 'protected' heat 4?
  10. Both legs to the home side by 10 points with a replay in September!
  11. makes sone good sense and also has sound mathmatical principle behind it.It is considered that by discarding the top and bottom say 5% of scores gives a more accurate reflection of a sample. So if using 20 match rolling you would only use the middle 18 scores. However many struggle with a basic average let alone rolling averages and are even less likely im sure to cope with the example i set out.
  12. Im not sure if Im more embarrassed for Scunny and the score today or my own Witches for the fact we had two goes and couldnt beat them!!
  13. Well with the provisional dates for the next round set towards the end of August theres plenty of time for a replay so Im going for draw!
  14. two wrongs dont nake a right as the old saying goes. agree totally - kocup are not included on the basis that all teams dont ride each other therefore it would skew the figures yet the regionalised lcup is.
  15. I dont dispute either of those points assuming Lyager produces a better return than Holub.
  16. now that change will need MC sanction - wonder if it will be forthcoming??? Is dropping a Brit with an established 4.5+ average for an assessed foreigner in the best interests of British Speedway??
  17. lets see then if Rob G is a man of honour (I dont doubt he is btw)On any redeclaration whilst Holub is under 5 he should only build a team to a limit that would keep Scunny under 42.50 if Holub was assessed as 5. Eg as he is now listed as 3 only build to 40.50 This way he can show he acts within the spirit of the rules and not just manipulate because he can. No other team is in the position where their assessed rider can drop to 3 so there is no chance Scunny can lose out taking this moral stance. All in the best interests of British Speedway surely???
  18. no there is a circus at the Suffolk Showground this week. Although some would say its just a bunch of clowns at Foxhall as well. lol
  19. Ive looked at the showground calender for Tuesdays and there could be a problem with other events planned - a morris dancers convention snail racing a striped paint demonstration a lace doily exhibition a Blue Peter bring and buy sale an antique tool display a transgender therapy meeting (although that may be swapped with a date they feel more in tune with) The showground see all these as higher priority than the speedway so there are concerns for me that it work.
