It turned out to be a Leicester win, but only really due to Rushen’s heroics! But I agree with your comments on Belle Vue. Their double change looks to have made them weaker with Shimelt unfortunately pushed into the top 5, but no flying reserve behind him to send him to reserve later on. Kingston is inconsistent too after his long spell out. Does anyone know the reason for Harry McGurk leaving the team? Is it just the points limit or did he quiet as well?

Yep they posted that after I posted and after the averages were updated on the BSPL website. But it’s not a direct 1 rider change is it? It’s sort of a double swap to get back under the limit.

Still no official mention by the club of Foord’s signing, Roynon’s release or Harris’ reassessment either. All I can think is by not announcing it themselves, they can’t be directly questioned on it at the time.

Jack Kingston & Harry Fletcher replace Wirtzfeld & Harry McGurk.

Are there anymore entries before the season starts properly?

Yes that’s fine.

1. Freddy Hodder 7.11 (BV) 2. Darryl Ritchings 5.00 (Birmingham) 3. Ashton Vale 6.17 (KL) 4. Vinnie Foord 6.29 (Kent) 5. Max Perry 6.89 (Leicester) 6. Senna Summers 3.44 (Oxford) 7. Cooper Rushen 3.00 (Leicester) Total: 37.90

Surely if it’s an April Fool, then they would’ve come out on the same day and said so!

It’s a very confusing statement! Roynon must be out in a double change.

Just name each rider once please.

Edit: It posted twice for some reason so please use the other thread.

It’s back! So build a team upto 38.00 points and the highest end of the season average wins! Only 2 riders from each club are allowed in your team. If a rider has a NL and NT team, then you must specify which club you want his average from. Averages can be found on the 2025 teams thread on here or hopefully soon on the BSPL site.  Previous results were: 2024: 1st DJC, 2nd Dukes & 3rd PotteringAround. 2023: 1st Islander15, 2nd Adz_mft & 3rd Hawks1975. 2022: 1st Diamonds85, 2nd Sings4Speedway & 3rd PotteringAround. 2021: 1st Hawks1975, 2nd Islander15 & 3rd Iron Scorpion. 2019: 1st Iand, 2nd Flipper11 & 3rd DJC.  2018: 1st Hunters, 2nd SKJ & 3rd CUFC_Brummie.  2017: 1st Eagles69, 2nd Islander15 & 3rd SKJ. 2016: 1st Halifax Tiger, 2nd John Leslie, 3rd Turn Two. Good luck everyone

I had planned to go to both nights but after the ticket price announcement, we’ve decided to only do 1 night. Yes it’s a GP and the world’s best riders, but the pricing structure needs to be affordable for everybody.

So 5 returnees plus Matt Marson and Lee Harrison. I’d find it a bit uninspiring as a Monarchs fan, particularly as Max James doesn’t even ride for the Academy and Wood & Marson have fixed up Championship rides elsewhere.

So Harrison, Harris & Muff effectively replaced Jack Smith, Vinnie Foord & Harry Fletcher. It feels harsh on Smith & Fletcher to be left without a ride just because of a change of heart by Foord and/or Norris.
