Just a bit of fun chief.

This. Well, overhyped is probably the best way of putting it.

£10 charity bet says he adds more to his average this year than any of the Glasgow team?

That’s fine. We’ll sneak him through on a 2.00.

Anyone signed Kyle Bickley yet btw?

Yes agree with the “declaring interest” point. Could work. Takes away the “uncovering a hidden talent somewhere” that some clubs do however. Edinburgh are good at it.

That is totally opinion and almost impossible to prove.

Well they should have enquiried. Is it “open to mischief”? Possibly but it is mischief available to all clubs assuming you ignore the paranoia.

Ipswich should have signed Andersson then.

Could another club have signed Joel Andersson, applied the same logic to get to the 5.20 average and proposed this to the BSPA? Of course they could. To suggest foul play is quite poor IMO.

Every rider in the world? That would be a hugely resource heavy piece of work and most of the results would ultimately not be used.

Love the seethe. Edinburgh promotion again proving they’re just slightly more switched on that the average.

You think there is a pot somewhere that holds your NI contributions and is then paid out to you in retirement? Really??

So no Max Clegg then....

Spot on

You are totally missing the point. Students wont necessarily go to speedway and as such need a little encouragement to attend (i.e. lower prices). OAPs are likely to be, but not exclusively, long term fans who have gone to speedway for years. It makes absolutely no business sense whatsoever to give people who will attend regardless of price (within reason) a discount. Surely you can see that??

Sigh.... will the promotion get more in the long term by giving students and children or OAPs reduced entry? If you expect discount as a form of goodwill in a sport that is losing money hand over fist in most instances then I think you are mad.

I am sorry but that view of students is just as sweepingly inaccurate as other views on OAPs from this thread.

Tenuous parallel to say the least. There will always be older speedway supporters so long as you encourage people along in earlier life. Lower ticket prices should be given to children and those taking children in my opinion.

No one is really talking about Clegg. Not totally out of the question that he returns.

Lol. Where's this logic going?

I know what you mean but i could see Sedgmen putting another 1-1.5 on his average. He showed he was still good round Armadale at the Scottish Open this year. Theo could put a couple on 4.23 so again i think worth the gamble. Not fussy about Morris to be honest. That said if they have a 5.00 Fox/Riss/Pickering type rider in the plan then Sedgmen and Theo would mean they were 0.1 short.

Odd decision but the over 65s are probably the most wealthy in society!
