  1. Ipswich by 12+ Middle order of the Aces didn't perform at the NSS on Mon. The Witches reserve pairing of Thompson and Jenkins should easily outscore Zischke + Mulford. It may take Doyle a couple of meetings to get back up to speed after injury and although Kurtz rides Foxhall well , you expect the Witches to win this easily.
  2. Bomber Harris at reserve , is like taking a B52 to a duck shoot !! 💥💥 17+1 PAID MAX - Fair play. Be interesting to see how the Stars do against a team with two strong heat leaders. At least the season has started now !!
  3. Hopefully just early season troubles for the Brummies as the riders get used to Perry Barr. Get stronger as the season goes on. Did not anticipate much from Birmingham but they need to be competitive paying all those air miles.
  4. So the season begins and we can delve into the Bet365 app for speedway bets again. Wiill have a look at Bewley under 11 and Doyle over 8 tonight. Rider matchups will take Brennan to outscore Lidsey 11/8 and Kildemand +2 vs Klindt 6/5.
  5. Same issue in Asda this week. Barcode doesn't scan ...
  6. Saw this in the speedway star this week touching on the SGP earnings 9The Voice's Charles Mckay collated the earnings - Not seen this mentioned elsewhere on the forum} - The finances are why the PZM are looking to threaten the SGP/FIM about Polish riders and flex there financial muscle and pulling power of Ekstraliga . In the course of winning his fifth World Championship Zmarzlik earned 132,000 euros in prize money. from the SGP Rights Holders Warner Bros Discovery Sports. Considering the financial commitment to break into the Elite Top Tier of listed riders in the SGP - bikes, engines, kevlars, helmets. Mechanics + Pit Crew. Physiotherapists etc ... Not forgetting the simple logistics of getting to SGP - transport costs , flights and/or diesel, hotels, food. Mechanics. Since 2022 the net prize money and championship points per SGP have remained the same. GP riders have to cover all riders costs because the rights holders don't pay expenses unless the GP is outside of Europe. FIM/SGP rules states that riders hotels and travel expenses are included in the prize money. 20pts - 16,500 18pts - 12,500 16pts - 10,000 14 pts - 9000 12pts - 7750 11pts - 7750 10pts - 7250 9pts - 7250 8pts - 6500 7pts - 6250 6pts - 6000 5pts - 5750 4pts - 5500 3pts - 5250 2pts - 5000 1pt - 4750 0pts - 1000 all prize money is in euros. The top three in the standings - Zmarzlik, Lambert and Lindgren are the only riders that took over 100,000 euros over the course of the season in prize money.
  7. Ipswich - Were close last year but decimated with injuries at the critical time of the season. The Doyle, Sayfutdinov + Brennan trio will compete with opposition. Second strings are solid and if they can get Thompson or Jenkins on a hot strak at reserve will be there at the business end of the season. Belle Vue - Are going to be dominant at the NSS with Bewley + Kurtz. Cook / Lidsey / Blodorn should score enough to keep them competitive. Need Zischke to come back strong after injury Sheffield - Tai may take a little time to het back into the groove but give it 6 weeks he should be back on the pace and looking to prove all and sundry wrong. The Aussie trio of Pickering + Holders x2 will complete a top 4 that will be strong enough to make the play-offs. Flint + Rowe + Hume will probably be in and out of the reserve berth depending on who hits a run of form at the right time. Leicester / Kings Lynn - Think this will depend on whose team can get momentum at the right time and which team can get consistency out of the reserves. Stars have gone for a solid side 1-7 whilst potentially the Lions Aussie trio is slightly stronger as a heat-leader trio. Over the season the Stars depth could just get the 4th play off spot. Oxford will need significant improvement out of all of the team and Tungate to maintain his form last season. They won a lot of close meetings at home last season with Nicholls offering solid support and not sure Riss + Wright can cover his loss or consistency. Birmingham is a team of too may "ifs" for my liking. Zagar, Jepsen Jensen and Musielak could be excellent one week and could equally struggle. the next Considering the jeopardy of Perry Barr - I hope the Brummies can have a better season than last year and give the support something to cheer.
  8. TNT Sports needs the Subscription fees to pay the Champions League TV Rights .. With the merger of BT Sports and Warner Bros it now means the joint venture will pay the rights costs of c. £305 million per annum, with £92 million paid in August 2024 followed by £153 million paid every February and August until February 2027. So zero concerns for the Speedway coverage or Eurosport and the thousands of viewers they may potentially lose. Simply hoping that a percentage sign up for the subscription and attract others through the access to the football. Speedway is unlikely to be featured on the TNT Sports channels most likely to be buried on the Discovery+ app or channels like last year.
  9. 4.50 absolute steal if that is his average. Even at 7 worth the gamble.
  10. Musieliak is a solid Heat-Leader and has plenty of PL experience. Be interesting to see where else Tolley looks to go with the remainder of the team.
  11. 100% Spot on. The new rules are utter garbage - If you want to open the opportunities up for the final ; do the Top 2 straight through and 3-6th place in Final Run off. This new format is dross !!
  12. Not until nearer the play-offs. 🙃
  13. Following the same strategy as last year but not sure it reads as strong as the Stars team.. Certainly Becker and Howarth would need better campaigns and Douglas to maintain his decent form of last year.
  14. Solid Stars - Lacking an out and out number one but a solid 1-7 nearly got Leicester over the line last season. Looks as though the Stars are looking at a similar structure.
