Where are these figures from? On the BSPA site using either the team declarations pages or the rider statistics pages King is nowhere near the best third rider. I'm also puzzled why you'd exclude bonus points.
-
I think Riss has lost his nerve.
-
Don't think Hume should escape, was in good positions and gave them away, being beaten by Bailey was poor, 3 points from 5 rides at home not good enough.
-
Spot on. Think it was early 90s when clubs stayed shelling out for brand new expensive vans rather than the riders buy one or get one sponsored if they wanted one. New equipment every year, totally unnecessary in my view.
-
I think you're referring to Peterborough here surely - undoubtedly the most expensive and poor quality food outlet across British Speedway I've come across. The stuff served up at Lynn is ok by comparison - the best quality/value I've had is at Ipswich - but the speedway club don't get any of those profits/receipts.
-
Think it was his cut-out coming/came adrift? (I thought it was the right side of the handlebars)
-
They also usually mean Schlein gets an Audi
-
Doyle rides in Poland and the UK, what's your point?
-
Not mutually exclusive, he could be employed in both jobs. We are not all mercenaries.
-
Yes and I do. Emil is not British so not comparable at all. Riders should support their home leagues, as nearly all do, if they have one, even more so if you are the world champion.
-
I'm indifferent to this, never warmed to him and of course it's now that it suits him
-
Harris was an awful guest. Think he should lose his 'good at Monmore' tag!
-
However the racing has been much better this season and was dire last night. I know the opposition was not the strongest.
-
Who is that though, apart from Andersen? Pedersen did retire, Nicholls is having a scorching season this year, Harris is doing well, so do you mean Basso and MPT?
-
To me though it's not about getting your average, it's how many he's getting each meeting. Scoring 14 on a night when the teams wins fairly easily means to maintain his average he'll score 5 or so the next meeting when we lose. It's consistency he struggles with and everyone knows he's capable which is why it frustrates fans.

As with anything you want to sell, it's up to you if you do or do not, no sense giving it away.

And Jenkins.

Buying SGP tickets (Cardiff 2023)...
SPEEDY69 replied to Ace no.5's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
OK, will try that tomorrow, thanks. Just went via the desktop as suggested and yes, the block can then be selected - thanks for the advice and disappointing that's not made clear by see tickets. -

I can't seem to find out how I book a specific block, it only asks for the category and it's giving me a block on the third bend when I want second bend (same category). Has anyone else faced this and managed to select what they wanted? -
Maybe it is harsh, let's see. I just remember so many others who went on to the top and the rapid progress they made. Maybe am unfair comparison but Loram Louis Screen Lee Nicholls and others. Joe doesn't even ride like he wants to go faster.
-
I think the Thompsons may have reached their level, not seen much in the way of progress this year.
-
Not understandable to anyone who doesn't know what those reasons are!
-
No, having averages based on your suggestion is, which is why it's not been done here.
-
Would be interesting I suppose seeing the riders slowing down to finish behind their partner every race. That undefeated 8 point man would be a highly sought after signing.
