No otherwise Tate could not have replaced him but I dont think Mountain qualified as an rs anyway. I think sticking with Jake maybe a mistake but I suppose as always Belle Vue want to be seen as supporting their rs so wont drop him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely you listen to the patient and give the benefit of doubt (if there was any) Perhaps he should've just gone to tapes and simply pulled up as soon as theyweere released..... Especially as his dad wanted him to withdraw apparently as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old bob at herne bay Posted yesterday at 02:11 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 02:11 PM One has to question whether this compulsory "rising star" in the PL is actually a good thing ? Seems to me "rising stars" are just a bunch of riders that clubs are forced to track one per side. When they flop clubs are lumbered wiht having to pick another "rising star" replacement. All sounds like forcefeeding these youngsters into the PL whether they want to or not. The good ones would have probably got their chances anyhow. Does "rising star" status actually benefit anybody - other thatn theclubs who get a cheap number 7. ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be the more logical step,and then maybe have 2 under 24 british riders in the premiership reserve berths 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does "rising star" status actually benefit anybody - other than the clubs who get a cheap number 7. ? I'm a massive fan of the RS system, would be happy for it to be in the Champ as well as the Prem, but not instead of. All sounds like force feeding these youngsters into the PL whether they want to or not. The riders clearly want to be in the Prem otherwise they wouldn't be on the RS list! The good ones would have probably got their chances anyhow. Possibly, but not always, as the points limit can always leave good promising young Brits without a team. Look at Dan Thompson, no Champ team wanted him at the start of 2023. Connor Bailey didn't have a Champ team the year he was U21 Champ I believe, then someone got injured & he got a place, but wasn't a first pick. If the rising stars all had 1 point averages because they only beat each other in heats 2 & 8, then I'd agree it hasn't worked. But there will always be reserves who struggle, that's not the RS system that's caused it, look at Zischke & Gusts for example? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Bloke Posted 9 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 9 hours ago From Ashton's FB page today "Signed out injured with my shoulder good luck to both my teams kings Lynn & Glasgow. I am not sure when i will be fit to come back but I am feeling exhausted from it all at the moment so the injury has come at the right time. Thanks to everyone who’s asked how I am" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperStarsFan91 Posted 8 hours ago Report Share Posted 8 hours ago The rising star looks likely to be either Hagon or Harrison, I’d go for Hagon though as he’s got the experience. Klindt and Iversen seriously need looking at too though, not good enough at all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klindt and Iversen seriously need looking at too though, not good enough at all! Our away form so far is terrible in the league, with only Lawson really going ok. So might as well forget that one. It's our home performances that make our averages look a bit better overall, as you'd expect. 6 pointers will be inconsistent, but they need to pick it up a bit. Their starting average, and where they are after the first 8 meetings. Added Cook, but he ain't had a fair crack yet. We've been unlucky with Ben. Starting ave. Cook 6.99. - 2.54 (Averaged 3.20 from 4 meetings, RR or guest 5.70 from the other 4.) Lawson 6.91. - 0.59 Klindt 6.58. - 0.24 (Stint at reserve) NKI 6.83. - 0.89 Harris 6.06. + 0.09 (Stint at reserve) Kvech 6.58. - 0.68 Not saying get rid, but they need to up it a bit.
