As long as each team sticks to the team average that’s fine in my books 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted 22 hours ago Report Share Posted 22 hours ago If the plan was to share out the top 9 riders in the league, then Pickering signing means one would miss out. They should just edit the rule, after all the AGM hasn't been held yet, so nothing is finalised. Just find the 10th highest rider & make the ruling one above that avarage. Peter Kildemand would be 10th on 8.05, so make the rule one rider above 8.05. * they haven't listed the final GSAs yet so Kildemand might not be 10th.

Principal is the same, if they want to share out the top riders, just make sure no-one gets missed out whatever average they end on. i.e could be one rider over 8, one over 7.9, one over 8.1, just don't make a rider unemployed because of the ruling. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boz Posted 10 hours ago Report Share Posted 10 hours ago A shame to see Danny leave - almost as much for his off track/mentoring with some of the younger riders. Hope he gets fixed up somewhere. Would love to see if we could build a team to keep Pijper/Scott at reserve (if we can entice Scott to stay). Would mean a slightly weaker main body but would always leave us with good reserves. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fortythirtyeight Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago King was a very good team man, excellent with the youngsters , still capable of big scores and a thoroughly nice guy . Sad that he seems to be forced out by a rule that doesn’t appear to have been thought out very well . Hope he gets fixed up quickly, if he hasn’t already been. Whilst Redcar have always shown loyalty to riders… Will the Bears take another gamble on Riss ? Jenkins to come back ? Allen pencilled in ? Might need to find a couple of 2/3 pointers with potential and that won’t be easy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant believe he wont get a ride in the Championship, I would love him back at Poole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
