PotteringAround

You do understand Doyle and Sayfutdinov scored 8 points in the match and Thompson scored 7, yes? They're the points scored in the match. They're the points that count in the averages. They're the points by which the BSPA press office rank the top scorers in the points list? Bonus points are just for the pay packet. But Ipswich have said that Doyle and Sayfutdinov had excuses for ducking out, and giving the place to the next in line. So I don't see what people are getting their knickers in a twist over. If I were offered some extra work on top of my main job at a lesser payrate I may well turn it down too.

Impartial observer here, but yours seems the bizarre comment. If a match is balanced to finish 45-45 or 46-44, wouldn't you find 8+1 more valuable than 7+2, if the 8 point rider gets you over the line where the 7 only gets a draw? Of course 8+1 is better than 7+2. The bonus points are only for the paypacket. They don't count towards the match score, nor the riders average. in both match score and CMA calculation 8 is better than 7. So sorry, yours is the bizarre comment. The pay for the second half races wasn't enough for Doyle and Sayfutdinov to take part. Fair enough. They're subcontractors and have their own rates in mind.

I must've missed that rule in sport that says you have to give up your dreams if your dad buys a club. Imagine David Beckham being all ready to sign for Manchester United and then his dad comes along and buys Charlton Athletic.

What are you finding inexplicable? Everyone else understands it. For a few years now Cairns has been wanting to ride at the best track in the country as soon as he was old enough. It's a track he likes, and he rides well. It's the British track which is most similar to the Polish tracks. It's the British track which will host the Grand Prix and other world events.

Yes, it was.

Erm.... I did tell everyone. My reply isn't hidden from anyone. If you couldn't work it out from the obvious... And you didn't ask "who is sniffing around" You asked who he'd already agreed to sign for. Asked and answered.

You're a King's Lynn fan. You should know.

Down to the last 18 tickets for the Saturday G.P.

Has the UK seen the last of Kildemand? I can see the Aces getting close to 60 points here.

Down to double figures on tickets for the Saturday G.P. Looks like just 74 are left. If anyone is looking for Grandstand Tickets for the Friday, it seems a couple have been released back for sale. Other than that, there's still a few on the backstraight standing. After those, you're down to the temporary stand (although I think that's a better view than the back straight).

Yes @Ray Stadia @RoundTheBoards @SPEEDY69 you're all correct. As everyone knows, a bike leaving the shale and hitting the concrete kerb with the back wheel is liable to take-off. I think someone has maybe had a drink and meant to actually type: "Best wishes to Tai for a full and speedy recovery"

It also says Ablitt (8.33) will be the No.1 So that must mean Roynon (8.84) is out. It leaves 6.16 to replace Muff 1. Nathan Ablitt 8.33 2. Luke Harrison 7.66 3. ??????????? 6.16 4. Luke Harris 5.36 5. Mickie Simpson 4.49 6. Jamie Etherington 3.00 7. Harrison Rogers 3.00

Max Perry Lion Cubs 6.89 Vinnie Foord Kent Eagles 6.29 Sonny Springer Fox Cubs 5.60 Sam McGurk Edinburgh Academy 5.56 Luke Harris Steelers 5.36 Stene Pijper Boro Tigers 4.82 Cooper Rushen Lion Cubs 3.00 37.52

Looks like 3 tickets have become available in the main stand Block F for Saturday and 4 in the main stand Block F for Friday if anyone needs to grab them quickly before they go again.
