five listed riders total adds up to 43 points ?! did complin ride , or did we have only one rider in heats where bridger was programmed ? with david's black humour , which we are enjoining , was this a case of " a bridger too far ---- away "

thanks david , score now adds up to 40 . so only had one rider in at least some of heats where bridger should have rode . see there were 27 rides taken by the five riders . two took 6 , other four 5 each, reserves are usually allowed 7 rides .oh, whatever , bunch of idiots making up and changing rules when they chose to .what a pathetic rule by a pathetic body , complin's average too high when it has to be less than bridger's . does make one think about giving up on speedway altogether . so presumably management had not realsed this -- well that sums them up , as if we hadn't already .
still amazed at BD's behaviuor this year . never thought of him as a quitter , and an incompetent . we know he has his moods , is rude and willnot listen to others sometimes , obstinate and a bully --yes , but an incompetant quitter -- never . we all have faults , but deep down i respected and trusted him for many years . 
no critism of the five riders though . with six we could have won , that five should have been six anyway if management had signed a replacement for floppy . they have failed for at least two months --- they are failures, not the riders . |
