I know he only scored 2 for Poole but he is better than that so expect a decent score from him although Kemp is capable of beating him doubt Gilkes is.

GiveusaB Posted April 28 Report Share Posted April 28 Would've thought that Dan Thompson/Zack Cook/Anders Rowe are all better options than Kerr....look at Kings Lynn...they call on Tom Brennan, a rider that's better than the one he's replacing! Can understand a weaker/cheaper rider when away from home, but got to try and be as competitive as possible at home! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Zagars +5 % for a home guest - 25%, It works out at 5.67 available. Thats if Brum get theĀ +5% in this situation, otherwise it's 5.40 available. Z.Cook is 5.57. The others you mentioned fit. AdamĀ Ellis is 5.47,Ā would fit along with Cook if the extra +5% for a home guest applies. Edited April 28 by Bald Bloke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Speedway often has daft rules, but I can't imagine there'll be a rule where you have to add 5% & subtract 25% to work out the average available for a guest. I'd hazard a guess that the + 5% at home rule is only when a full facility is allowed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why i said "That's if Brum get the home +5% in this situation" I just tried to explain. Edited April 28 by Bald Bloke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure any clubs do a cheaper option for delayed stream. You could purchase a stream and watch say at 10pm because you are out that evening, but you wouldn't get it any cheaper.Ā A few years ago BSN did a cheaper option if you bought a delayed stream but they don't do that now, assuming they lost too much money doing it and Birmingham need all the money they can get.Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IainB Posted April 28 Report Share Posted April 28 (edited) What an improvement from Lions number 7 position! Gilkes won heat 2 and whenever he was behind he was always buzzing around his opponents back wheel... Lions now riding with the team they probably should have started with, should be good for 4th or 3rd in the league (injuries permitting) Cracking ride from Musi in 15 šĀ Edited April 28 by IainB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
