Speedway rider would ride for another club shocker. Maybe Speedway Star made it up? 😉

I'm guessing there will be a pay on the gate option for the race off

Tickets now on sale. Got race off and final tickets standing for me and my daughter, £40 for both meetings excellent value. Grandstand tickets are pricy though.

You did an excellent job at keeping it all in! 👍

I get the feeling SteveBrum isnt a fan of KK

Zengota?? He's a 3rd heatleader tops!

Howarth was poor when he signed for the Bees towards the end of the season, even struggled against FTR riders.

Id prefer KK and Harris over Holder and Buzckowski/Andersen/Watt(?)! Same with Zagar and Cook although if Cook continues to ride like he did in the playoffs then you might have a point! King needs to improve his form as a 3rd heatleader, didnt do a great job in the role last year. I will say he has it in him to do the job though!

Depends on which KK we get. A 2010 on and we'll have the best top 2 in the EL. King and Woryna are the worry for me. The rest im fine with.

Add Zengota as a possibility. Zengota Batchelor North Walasek Wozniak Auty Starke Maybe Leicesters best bet? Depending on Swindon obviously

Who's left for Leicester? Batchelor, Walasek, North, Barker, Grajczonek, Lawson?

There will be 3 way above the rest as things stand now.

As I was responding on a Coventry thread I didn't feel the need to add them as it was already suggested we will be pants in 2016. Luckily for us we can make a quick change if it doesn't go well in the Elite Shield!

Lakeside, Wolves, Leicester and maybe Kings Lynn will also have lets say average sides next year.

Long as the stadium is constantly used it should be excellent for the Aces.

Are Belle Vue in charge of running the stadium and getting the revenue from non speedway events too?

Riders and Sandhu probably get most of the admission/food and drink money to be honest.

I'm getting bored of it all to be honest.

Garrity, Sarjeant and Bates will maybe Harris a little but yeah I agree with you with the line up at present. Other sides will look just as poor though to be honest. I doubt we will see this 1-7 finishing the season.

Once we signed King we narrowed the amount of riders available for the last spot. Would've been far better to sign a Larsen or Sundstrom (if they want an EL spot) then had far more options to play with. Couldve then signed Barker or Summers for the last spot.

Its known as a Bees meltdown by some on twitter. Will the heatleader list be discarded soon as the season starts? Was it just for team building purposes or a general rule for the season? King will need to up his game in a heat leader rule for sure. I get the impression with King that he performed better against heatleaders as a 2nd string than he did as a heatleader himself last year?

Nice try I'm sure someone will bite!

Sarj was averaging around 5 last season at reserve so without Garrity as his partner you would expect more, wouldn't be surprised if he's in the top 5 after 4 meetings and Woryna or King dropping to reserve. Shows how barmy the rules are this year!

For whatever reason Garrity didn't want to be part of the draft, makes no sense to me now they can move up. Although I would say at PL level Garrity is a better rider than those you named (averages 1.5 more than some of those at PL level) but most of those will soon move up to the 1-5 after 4 meetings anyway so will be interesting to see who will do well when moving up.

With the way the rules seem to be we could easily see draft riders as heatleaders and vice versa
