Yep I agree that around 4th will be where we likely to finish at this stage

You conveniently forget to mention that Kenneth Bjerre will likely be number 1 by May even though he is 3rd in our averages at the minute. Coventry's top 3 is just better than Somerset. Tungate at 9.03 is far too high. Also we don't have a rider as bad as Graversen, the suggestion he's on par with Sarj is laughable. Allen seems to have a bit of talent about him but will likely struggle early at the away tracks, he hasn't ridden many in this division.

Bjerre and King will average at least high 8s. Where we will be more stronger than anybody is at reserve, whoever will be at reserve (Kerr, Sarj, Bates) will consistently take points off the oppositions top 5 especially at Brandon.

As costs at the top level now should be much lower plus adding the the Sky money on top I guess moving up could prove more lucrative for Championship clubs.

Motorcycle live is a brilliant way to promote. It's a shame other clubs and the bspa don't get involved with it. I agree with Matt also and it would be the ideal way to do it if at all possible.

Not so easy for some, Coventry in particular!. Bees have to compete for article space with CCFC ( and shambles that goes with them), Wasps, Cov Rugby, Cov Blaze, Cov Bears and now Wasps Netball that attracted a crowd of 4,500 the other day. Add to that we've had Snooker, Rugby League internationals and even Davis Cup tennis in recent times. This is probably the reason why we announce riders mainly on a Saturday morning, all the Rugby and Football previews are done Friday! Poole's location certainly helps them as apart from the 2 PL football clubs I'm not sure there is much else sporting wise, especially at the levels Coventry based clubs play at. Having said that Coventry Telegraph do an excellent job previewing and reporting our meetings.

Always been one of the highest earners in the EL.

I gather electricians have been working at the stadium in the last few days. Agree. I said wait till all are named and we won't look so average. I actually think we have a decent side now.

Get used to it.

Brandon Estates statement saying lease was signed was released November 3rd so I guess then.

Yeah Sandhu lease ended last week and Hortons starts January 1st so officially neither has the keys.

Lasse Bjerre is probably a Rick Frost asset, I guess they've been transfered to Poole.

Every financial institution says the same, OAPS are better off these days and even more so in the future. To be honest I don't mind OAPS having a slight reduction by a quid or so. Families in the past few years have had to absorb price increases so it was nice to take all my kids (3 of them) to Brandon for £17 last season. If I had to pay prices that Somerset have set for example they'd only come occasionally.

Not on this issue 😂

No doubt for every age group the price will go up to compensate the price drop for OAPs considering the moaning from some last year.

You think your posts on the Coventry thread over the weekend were constructive?

I suspect the like was pressed with a hint (a lot really) of sarcasm.

When he uses English he often makes spelling mistakes. The winks do make it look suspicious but very much doubt anything is in that.

The points limit reduced to 42 after first set of averages so perhaps not so easy.

Riding at reserve though.

Now the format has been reverted back Klindt won't average 8 anyway.

Not if he produces performances like he did at Brandon when guesting for us. He was dire, Ellis Perks passed him. To be fair though I've seen him have decent meetings too. I think there was better riders on a similar average.

Them two Poles wouldn't be a 5 in the EL so no way should they be for a PL average. The Danes shouldn't be a 5 either!

Depends who is asking.

This is a deal breaker for me 😂 We don't want to get Ebola 😂
