Looking at the table it could be very tight for the sixth place here's hoping the fixtures can be completed in time, but there are a couple of clubs might struggle to manage too.
They are both just gaters IMO ,but they are good gaters,but when the going gets tough they are not reliable especially away from Ashfield. think there was more than lack of points behind Barket getting shown the door IMO .Bach is a slick track gating tart so Ashfield might be a problem for him.
I have a number of programmes from 1971/2 from various tracks when the British riders wintered there and rode against each in team matches are they collectable items !
That was your average speedway meeting nowadays ,gate and you win, miss the gate and just sit at the back because you are not likely to pass anybody unless they make a mistake.EL or PL it doesn't matter.Smaller the track the better as the riders stay closer but still not much passing.
Perhaps looking into bike technology and then putting some dirt onto tracks might help cause.They are just too fast nowadays and tracks have too slick for them when wet weather is forecast.
It's a catch 22 regarding covers,if you can guarantee no rain during the meeting fine but if it is dodgy forecast for the day you can waste your time because they don't ride in wet weather nowadays.
IMO we will be borderline for Top 6 IF clubs complete their fixtures by cut -off date which given the weather this summer might be a struggle .We are a decent team but R/R will give us a hard task to get away points,we provide great matches but getting more than 40 pts with R/R without one of the reserves having a big return will be difficult IMO .A couple of tricky home matches to come as well.
