Not likely to see Tay back anywhere just yet I think.Still far from race fit.May take a few weeks to build up the muscle needed to handle any kind of grippy track.

Thats a bit close to being positive jerky my old boy. Steady on or you'll get a nosebleed!!

Good to see Tay back on track and even surviving a minor spill. Good luck boy.

As has been pointed out it is difficult to make changes that you would expect to improve the team as each has to be like for like. Mat has been most disappointing particularly since the switch to reserve. Are there any 6 pointers out there though? Do we risk a new 5 point assessed and again who? A restructure for more top end strength is not possible without a 3 point option and probably not viable financially.Of course you need to find the No1 as well !! A rider order switch is the obvious easy first option. Kev at 5 showing some leadership taking on that responsibilty. I would put Dak and Morten together though Dak at 2 could also be considered. No easy answers.

The optimist in me wants to say its all about clicking into top form for the play offs. The realist in me knows a top six finish is a far away pipe dream unless something happens now. Changes or not it needs sorting.

Option 2 for Hilly - a bit like touching the tapes. Still in the race but with a 10 point handicap.

Red certainly has nice tats!!

Your source told me he has already been offered a permanent wildcard!!

Thanks for that Dave - dont worry about the discrepancies even the BSPA official figures are sometimes wrong!!

By my reckoning there is soon a run of meetings where scores of 3,4,6,3 will drop off for Doolan so if he remains solid his rolling average will rise. Although as it is spread over approx 180 rides it will still only be a small rise.

Absolutely - I think someone has a spreadsheet set out to work it out and they could perhaps let us know what scores are due to drop for each rider. (please!!)

With the rolling averages it is difficult to tell - Leigh for example last night scored 8 from 4 rides which is higher than his average. You would think it would increase his average. However if in the fixture last year dropped from his rolling average he scored 10 from 4 then his rolling average would fall. As the old saying goes there are lies, damn lies and then there are statistics!! The modern saying could of course be lies, damn lies and then theres Aljack!!

Only the next 2 meetings until the cut off for July averages I beleive so it seems likely no change next month.

What Lee ? I think he retired !!

Total race points from all rides (bonus points and tactical ride extra points excluded) divided by total number of rides then multiplied by 4 to produce average.

He certainly could. Given the small number of matches making up his average he has the greatest chance of making an impact to bridge the gap. Equally a couple of lower scores will have a more pronounced negative impact.I think he would need to outscore Leigh by about 20 points between the cut dates for average assessments for July to do it.Of course with Leigh packing in the bonus points behind him whenever he can I think there is every chance of it happening.

KKS and Aljerk - separated at birth or the result of cousins marrying?? I can't make up my mind which it is!!

That was a question I asked about a fortnight ago........still waiting for the answer.

Outrageous!! How can this be!! In line with all other threads I demand you copy and paste the relevent paragraph in your rulebook where this is stated. Thanks for the clarification and all your time and effort in putting the game together.

I presume Rohan signing on fee was to ensure he joined the Witches and that only officially added to the retained list once the right number of meetings were completed. As for Jo would he actually have signed his contract whilst we were still Elite League members and therefore covered uner the 'protected asset' rules??

No I think Peterborough wanted them to gain experience and have therefore paid the Witches (and others) to bring them on. :wink:

As opposed to Nicki the WC (hopefully never again) who is a dirty bugger whether he needs to be or not!!
