  1. Do Lynn look at signing a replacement for Cook while he is out.If you make the change before the end of the month at least you can use his higher average before it goes down next month.Is there anyone willing to come.I see the recovery time varies on the broken bones he sustained from 6-12 weeks.Although speedway riders do like to get back earlier.If there was a decent replacement out there I would go for that until Cook was fit to return I think.
  2. I hope you are correct,that would mean another month of Bomber at reserve.I thought with rolling averages though that they do change,only ones with assessed averages,new to the league or those that have been absent for so long have to do six matches first to get a new average.Hope i am wrong.
  3. If you put Cook at reserve though and you genuinely can't get anyone to guest you are definitely stuffed.At least if he is in the 1-5 you have R/R as last resort.We obviously want an adequate guest if one is available though.So if guests are available you can get the one you want regardless whether Cook is reserve or in the 1-5. Hopefully Brennan will fill the void against Oxford,after that though the pickings will be slimmer once Cook's average does go down.
  4. Definitely better having Klindt down at reserve imo.If you couldn't get a decent guest for Cook at reserve you are stuffed.At least if Cook is in the 1-5 and you couldn't get a decent guest you could run R/R.Not ideal but at least you could use Klindt and one above Cook in the averages.
  5. Someone needs to have a word with him.This is speedway and there is always going to be close or very close contact.Undoubtedly he can be fast,but he needs to be a couple of yards in front to get points.He spooked himself tonight when he nearly binned it (ht2) and basically stopped.Then when Lawson went by he was spooked again.I hope he can sort this side of him out because there is potential there for all to see.
  6. Cook would be the first to go if I was in charge.In fact I wouldn't have had him in my team to start.Always thought he would be a weak link due to his inflated average from riding at Belle Vue.It will be even more of a problem if he went to reserve.If he doesn't gate whenever I have seen him he never seems to change his line to make an overtake,that is frustrating. As per rules,by the looks of it now you can make changes up until you have completed 75% of the your fixtures,after that you can't.
  7. You are obviously not up with the rules.Even the ones that have been there years😅
  8. Thought you couldn't make changes until 25% of your league matches are complete,accept for long term injury.Maybe wrong,i will leave that to someone who can be bothered to read up on the rule book.
  9. But does the person have balls,only it can answer that.
  10. Do you have evidence Harris wanted Boughen with him?
  11. I agree,just wish the powers that be would come out and say it though,rather than have us believe it is the way they have written it.
  12. I think Louis isn't telling the whole truth,that's for sure.I think we all know the rising star system is a good idea,but as far as the picks go that is just a bunch of lies.The rising stars go where they want.Most fans know it,but those who make the rules seem too ashamed to come out and admit it.
  13. Gordon Bennett,you could be a number of so called genders nowadays,even though there is only 2.
  14. Did you expect anything else from him.Funnily enough back in September he said Klindt,Kvech and Rowe have to be the first names in the team for 2025.
  15. Should have,was used at Lynn last week to split Harris and Bewley by 0.02 secs.
  16. I see Boughen pulled out after 2 rides last night up at Edinburgh,so mist be a doubt I would have thought.
  17. At least Mark Lemon admitted Belle Vue rode their luck a bit last night,shame some of their blinkered fans couldn't see it.
  18. Cook seemed to be slowing before Bewley had got past him.Even if it was only a 4-2 the other two ef's most definitely cost Lynn the match anyway,or do you think Bewley would have got Lawson from 30 yards back from the last bend lap 4 and Tate the same albeit on the 2nd bend last lap over Boughen.
  19. Lynn so unlucky tonight,on 3 comfortable 5-1's all on the last lap only for 3 big ef's.I'm sure the Belle Vue fans that were here tonight will second that.Oh well onto Leicester in a couple of weeks hoping to bounce back.
  20. I'm sure they will get a facility for a month and then be able to use a guest of up to 75% of his average after that.That's what happened at Lynn last season when Musielak got injured.
  21. You would like to think a facility would be granted in this instance. Best wishes to Tai on a speedy recovery.Not one of my favourite riders anymore,but i don't like to see any rider get injured.I hope sincerely the injuries he has sustained aren't as bad as feared and he makes a comeback soon.
  22. It's a long season.Personally I think we are missing a good no1.At home we might get by without a no1 but away I think we will struggle.Hope I'm wrong😀. Tonight was the Harris show he was absolutely awesome,didn't make a single gate but still managed a maximum with some breathtaking moves.Will need to make some gates next week though if he wants to beat Kurtz/Bewley.Hopefully Cook,Klindt and Lawson can come to the party next week and we can beat the Aces. That Gusts fella was good value for Oxford,good signing going on tonight's showing.
  23. No prediction from me,just looking forward to seeing some team action!
