I'm fairly sure that the rule used to be (it might still be I don't know) that your licence was protected for 3 years from closure provided of course the finances were in order. After that they could entertain applications from any interested parties Anyone know the up to date position

Plus Football stadiums are, in the main, owned by the clubs themselves

Ipswich Sheffield Belle Vue Leicester Oxford Kings Lynn Birmingham

Not a huge number

I don't think that Brum can be worrying about Sheffield, Ipswich and BV They need to have a look at Kings Lynn for example who have a good no 1 but an average no 5. Ditto Oxford

Fingers crossed, he's got to have a decent number 1 no doubt about that

They've had years to attract Cradley and Coventry fans and haven't, they've signed the bottom of the Wolves team not the top so I wish them well with that I think you're right in that any concerted effort to attract other West Midlands fans would need to be something new that hadn't been tried before

It depends who the 6 riders are

They haven't managed to attract Coventry and Cradley fans in any significant numbers over an extended period I don't see why this season will be any different They might get some Wolves fans but if the team is losing every/most weeks that won't last long

All of them

The evidence over a very long period of time now suggests that this is the case

Strange that he talks about the people he hasn't signed before the team has been announced.

It's the rights to promote speedway in the Peterborough area presumably in essence the licence. It used to be the case AFAIK that they were protected for 3 years after closure, not sure what the current "rule" is

Ha ha brilliant

I've seen a couple of people mention that Freddie has said no, one of them I know is well connected to someone in the sport so it might be true

You've got 4 of the top 5 in the GP in that list, the chances of them wanting to ride here/fancying Birmingham and Brum being able to afford them if they did must be virtually nil. Definitely worth asking though That leaves Laguta Dudek Michelsen or Thomson and Pawlicki

I was impressed with him last season and has bags of potential to improve further. Decent signing for me as are Brennan and Flint while Worrall will do OK. The problems are above them hence why Brum have announced the bottom end of the team first

Hang on in there, they may surprise you.... Then again

Pretty much nailed on I'd say

I'd have Belle Vue ahead of Oxford but otherwise looks right to me

As a Wolves fan I've never thought of Ermo as team manager material, wish him well though I'd have tried to get Rosco personally but he'd have certainly needed to be involved in selecting the team

Good side for me, if Wolves can get to the play offs which they did easily then Leicester with Fricke should certainly do that and potentially compete for the final

Schlein will be at 2

Sheffield Ipswich Belle Vue Leicester Oxford Lynn Brum

Leicester will be ahead of Oxford for me
