Looks like the rules have changed,or you have just mis-interpreted them by the looks of it.S.Lambert is in. Going on that,i would still prefer Tungate and possibly Starke for Porsing and Bailey.But having Lambert in is certainly an improvement on Bailey.

So on that logic you can forget the replacements i said earlier in Tungate/Starke for Bailey/Porsing.How long before we get a team average now with Bailey quitting after 7 matches.Do we have to get his replacement to do 8 matches first now?Or will the BSPA grant the team an average when Holder and Huckenbeck complete theirs.

3.67 average for Matt Williamson.

Still got a bit of time before our next away meeting when Bailey,Holder and Huckenbeck will get their averages.But like you said we are going to need to replace 2 riders and at this time it has to be Porsing with Bailey.Incidentally when they do that last away match,don't the new averages not kick in for a week thus allowing you the extra 7 days to make changes on the old averages for those 3 riders? Tungate would be a good start in my eyes and maybe Starke.

Just seen this on the BSPA website.Personally i think this rule stinks.Fair enough bringing Zengota for an injured KK,but surely as soon as KK is declared fit he should be back in the side. Maybe Poole are playing a clever game here and keeping KK's average high.So come near the end of July he still has a high average and maybe Poole could tempt a star name across for the last couple of months of the season.

They had 3.31 to play with at the start of the season. Shame the bar wasn't showing the football tonight I could have a great night watching the speedway and football with a few 🍺

I too feel Josh should be stepped down.Maybe after tomorrow they may think about it.Maybe i should have phrased the makeup of the team better.What i meant is people moan about wanting to know who is going to be riding in the 1-7 when they know who is going to be riding surely. Why shouldn't Harris be riding,this was only bought up by a member of this forum.So he is riding in Germany on Thursday,many riders ride in different countries the day after.If promotions had to answer for everything that crops up on this forum they wouldn't have time for anything else.

Why do people moan about the make up of the team.You know pretty much it will be the same team that rode a couple of weeks ago.When a team change is likely i'm sure it would be announced in good time.I feel sorry for all those football fans that travel to see their teams and only get to know who's playing in the team less than an hour before kick-off

They did,i assume they still do.

Pub,football and speedway updates for me.With the disjointed fixture list the way it is,waiting another week isn't going to hurt.

Good result for the Stars.But we still need some points from our no7.This can only be damaging for Bailey's progression in the sport.His confidence must be shattered and you would think stepping down would only help him progress.It's good being up against better riders but to be scoring nothing each meeting must be soul destroying.

It's great to have memories like that,because they were indeed some great times.Those Dutch lads were tall,but then they were all tall to me.I do remember Mark being asleep most of the time during Sunday's racing,he was sat in the seats on the start/finish line wasn't he.Obviously well hung-over from the night before.Marky boy,i haven't heard that in quite some time.

You were back then when we had a grippy track and a solid fence.Riders have nothing to fear now. It's amazing since being back in the top league the so called top riders don't want a grippy track.But back then the so called lesser riders could handle it,but amazingly the top ones can't

Now that would be fun .Dads army revisited

You must work crazy shifts like me

I can certainly remember that night club,bit scary really when you look back at it.Although we must have had a few by then so we may had been feeling a bit braver than we normally would have been. Brilliant times,enjoyed my weekend trips to Gronigen for the Assen Ice Speedway.Remember beer mat flipping once with M.Loram in Tramps bar,i think it was called(Rusky will know).Was the hotel called the Dohlen(another one for Rusky).Great times and memories from some great trips abroad all thanks to the organisation and driving of our old friend Rusky.

Me too,remember in Champs one night how Nigel Leaver raised money for a blown engine

You've got it Trees,although i weren't single for part of it.Mind the missus enjoyed her times to.

Now i know you.And you are right,those were the good old days.Alchohol,speedway,trips abroad=lots of fun.I remember being locked out of a cabin on a ferry once too,wonder who that was .Remember that huge pizza you got in Hamburg.Was you in the lift in Sweden when it got stuck in between floors momentarily,remember Wild Wayne being in it.It's all flooding back now. You wouldn't believe the fun we had back in the 90's.

Remember that one mate.If i remember correctly we actually won that night with a Bobby Ott maximum.Forgive me though i can't remember who was in the car that night.I am assuming though you may be the one who gave me a raw hot dog at a barbeque at your place?

Yes i remember the days i use to travel to almost every away match,unfortunately to watch us get beaten every time.Lets be honest our history on the road has never been the best.I can't really believe i done it, but then again i was younger then and seemed to have plenty of spare cash to do such a thing.As you get older our priorities change for many of us.

You would like to think he would be worth the gamble on a 5.If Lynn could drop their average just a little bit i think you could get him in for Bailey.Unfortunately that would mean having to endure another loss which i don't like either.Or maybe a 55-35 loss at Swindon,and a 47-43 win at home to Rye would do it,i don't know. But Tungate can be a real pocket rocket on his day and i'm sure now he has been released he will be snapped up quickly by a PL and CL side.

Bit peed off in truth.Don't like missing meetings because of work,but i have to miss this one to see my other sporting team in a final. I feel confident for the fact as you say we won't be playing at OT.

Good luck to the Stars for this one,was hoping to use my programme from the first staging for this but unfortunately it now clashes with my other team trying to qualify for the Champions League via winning the Europa League.Up the pub for me. If i'm being honest i am hoping for a rain off,but i am being greedy. Going to be a tough one,everyone needs to be at the max to take all 3 points. Expect the Stars to make a change after this fixture providing the one at Swindon goes ahead.

This is correct.
