Pr1ck. Rye probably had the second/third highest average crowds in the division on a Saturday or Friday night last season.
-
Yes anyone could see it coming, but Dumb and Dumber haven't helped. They have made the team weaker with Robson returning and are well under the limit. What the hell is Clegg still doing here at the end of June??? Although Garrity is a plonker, Rye should have been all over him after his scores and watching him this season. As someone has mentioned, if there skint and have no money then come out and say it so the fans can get the picture. It just seems they have no idea how to build a team or have any knowledge of riders who could come in and improve it all. Be proactive ffs, they waited until home defeats last season before they realised the team wasn't strong enough then missed out by a point or two.

The spare points need using to make the top five stronger. Pointless using them on a 3.80 rider who will make little difference.
-
Tripe side that. Pathetic from the promotion. Obviously didn't want to spend any money or show any ambition. Dire for the rest of the season. Clegg still in the side is an insult as it's basically a 6 man side still. Even replacing him eventually will be pointless as the rest of the side is so crap.

Premiership - Swindon v Rye House • 14/06/18
Chris replied to ReadingRacer2017's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Kennett is at reserve if Robson has been reintroduced meaning they'll just use a guest. No idea why they haven't pulled their finger out and signed someone using the extra points after the averages changed. 3 meetings in 6 days using guests and well under the limit is stupid. -
Kings Lynn Vs Somerset: Wed : 30-05-2018
Chris replied to g13webb's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Not surprising from Masters, made a tw4t of himself at the Aussie GP a couple of years ago when he started crying after the top boys showed him what top level racing was all about. -
The promotion won't change the top 5 now. Summers has been purchased some kevlars now, so they won't waste money buying him a set and then dropping him. Robson will come back in & they'll just replace Clegg with the extra points available. Would only leave around 3-3.5 for a new rider so whoever comes in wont make much difference. Promotion probably losing money already with the FRN at Rye so won't splash out on a rider to come into the top 5. Besides if Poole can't find anyone then Rye have no chance.

Rye House Vs Kings Lynn Stars Mon 28/ 05/2018
Chris replied to g13webb's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I believe Shadders was making the point about Allott as your talking out of your arse. Edward Kennett has been a 7-9 point elite league rider for a number of years apart from the last couple. Why can't he score 11+3 without it being a trick track? -
Time up for Clegg surely with the change of averages with Rye well below the 42.5 limit. NBJ facility also up. Robson will return by the looks of it with no meetings for a couple of weeks & no other changes. Doesn't look like there is any appetite to shake the side up with all the top five being purchased new kevlars. A season of away drubbings, tight home meetings and a sixth place finish beckons. Joy.

You mustn't have been watching your speedway at Lynn for many years then if that's your preferred offerings on the racing. Very salty comments from the six fingered lot on here lol -
Putting a decent side together would help. The abject performance in the 1st leg would have put many off. Mid week crowds have been well down though generally at Rye. The bank holiday meeting against Somerset and Saturday/Friday meetings last season saw very good crowds....
-
Least I'll save a score + petrol now
-
Go and look at the scores again then. If Harris stays on his bike he would likely have cost his side a win. Not the first time he has missed tactical changes/reserve swaps. Kennett score irrelevant if he does his job as could still have won the meeting.

Poole vs Rye House Weds 16/05/18
Chris replied to LisaColette's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Coming from you! Haha -
What an earth are on on about. Any sane team manager would have stuck a world class rider like KK in for Summers. A losers attitude to not upset a rider by pulling him from a heat. So Schroeck would have cost his side a win if Harris would have stayed on his bike. The guy is a very poor TM as is way to matey with the riders and is like a star struck fan afraid to upset anyone.

Poole vs Rye House Weds 16/05/18
Chris replied to LisaColette's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Peter Schroeck for you. Dreadful team manager who is scared to pull riders from heats, so he doesn't upset them. Or he just doesn't know the rules, which wouldn't surprise me either. Giving Clegg four rides says it all. Sounds like Rye threw it away. Three riders not beating an opponent is pathetic. Kennett is taking the piss at the moment & needs to be shown the door if this carries on. Poole are fiddling at the moment so a good score line for them with a close win. -
Track was almost too good last night. Grip all over and get the back wheel in the dirt and no chance of passing unless a rider switched off. You could see the bikes pulling and shooting off coming out of the bends. Maybe a touch over watered. Somerset meeting was decent and nothing like last nights track conditions.
-
Certainly over trying/riding last night!

Poole vs Rye House Weds 16/05/18
Chris replied to LisaColette's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Heavy Poole win, Rye dreadful on the road. -
Rye very fortunate. Nielsen EF while leading in heat 14 and looked like the pole beat NBJ on the run to the line in heat 12, but wasn't given it. Desperate move by Josh G in heat 14, very poor piece of riding and hopefully hasn't caused serious injury to NBJ. No excuse for ploughing through a rider even if your form is dire and your desperate for points. Rye are not going to go anywhere with this team. What are the promotion waiting for? A home defeat? That will come no doubt. Clegg carrying on is pointless for everyone. Miles off the pace and won't get involved in the first corner. No confidence. 3 changes are needed. If NBJ is out now then his points, Summers and Cleggs need to be used to make the side stronger. Having Harris at number 1 says it all.
-
Possible options for changes: Kim Nilsson Danny Gappmaier Matej Zagar(seems he's only doing Polish league at the moment) Gregorz Zengota Krystof Buczkowski

Decent meeting. Delays unavoidable really so no criticism. Not like the old bank holiday meetings under Silver that limped on for 5 hours. Constant watering kept a bit of moisture in the track for the riders. Rye are really just hanging on at the moment and hoping to scrape wins at home. The team is nowhere near strong enough and it must be obvious that changes are needed. Summers, Clegg and Robbo need to be moved out and the points used to restructure the side. Clegg is completely out of his depth, Summers is on way too high an average and will never hit it and you can't wait for Robson as team not strong enough. The 14/15 odd points these riders are taking up need to be used as soon as possible. Nicholls excellent yesterday and kept Rye in it.
-
Not sure it's particularly bright to have a pop at the fans after scoring 0 from 4 as a number 1. Best thing would be to shut up and sort yourself out. He's on a downward spiral now and isn't the rider he was 10 or even 5 years ago. He's struggling in the league below, so that says it all. The fact he is number one at Rye is probably unfair on him as he's nowhere near that level anymore and the Rye promotion need to recognise that very quickly.
