Options for the club whilst Toby is getting fit, Rider Replacement Holder, Ellis, Bellego and Howarth can all take hid rides. Or possibly Signed Chris Holder on a 28 day contract as cover,

Only one man for this job. Who do you call? Troy Batchelor.

My Prediction for the season (1) Redcar (2) Glasgow (3) Poole (4) Scunthorpe (5) Plymouth (6) Berwick (7) Oxford (8) Edinburgh (9) Birmingham

Well I did not see that one coming, and we won this one with Adam Ellis having another off night again. Looks like we caught Belle Vue cold and at the right time. So that 2 meetings 1 home and 1 away and maximum league points gained, cannot fault the start to the league campaign. Well Done Tigers.

Fully expecting an Aces win and Aces to take the bonus point.

Wait till the Ipswich brigade get bored and start coming on here.

Ty lives in Sheffield he is as far as I am aware living with his girlfriend Chelsea the daughter of Kelly Moran. He has been working for the Bates family.

Congratulations to Ipswich on the signing of Emil. Not only is this a feather in the cap for Ipswich, but British Speedway in general. One thing that Ipswich has to be favourites for is the Pairs that they look as though they can retain the title.

Personally I love the Play Off's. The atmosphere on the night is electric and exciting, I do think we need to move on from last season's Play Off defeat. Lets move on and concentrate on ths coming season.

Andy Smith?

If Ipswich have managed to get Emil signed then it can not only good for Ipswich but good for the league as well. I would question how race fit Emil is and I think that you have to remember that he has not raced for over 12 months. As for his average I would imagine that he will come on on an 8.00 average, which will leave Ipswich with around 4.27 for the final rider. Who will be that final rider? My guess is Cameron Heeps whose average is 4.18.

Good News, It appears that Josh has been found safe and well.

Nice to see, but who else was riding in the meeting?

Any money going into the sport is more than welcome. How many times have many of us have said that we need sponsorship for the Leagues. As for conflict of interests is there not other conflicts of interest. Sheffield (My club) and Leicester having the same owners. Kings Lynn and Peterborough having the same owners. Sheffield and Ipswich both sponsored by Guy Nicholls companies. For me it is good news.

Thomson and Cook 2 full seasons (2021 and 2022) Brennan rode in 2019 but only raced 8 meetings and was out for the rest of the season due to serious injury. So basically all three have the same Championship experience.

Based on their full averages for last season, not rolling averages or bonus points. Tom Brennan; Overall; 6:96 , Home: 7:48 and Away: 6:36 Ben Cook; Overall: 5.69 , Home: 6.93 and Away: 4.32 Kye Thomson; Overall: 6.75 , Home: 7.28 and Away: 6.21 Based on those figures I would say that Brennan is at present the best of the three. Of the other two I would say that at present Thomson is better than Cook. There is a big difference between Cook's Home and Away figures, whereas Brennan there is not much difference between Home and Away figures.

I find it hard to believe that Peterborough are attempting to sell season tickets when less than half of the team has been announced. I take my hat off to anyone who has bought a season ticket at Peterborough, personally I would not if it was my club and I had thought about buying one.

I would imagine that Birmingham will have priority on Nick Morris's services. The Danish club will be allowed to use him when Birmingham don't have a meeting The only problem I can see is if Birmingham have to re-arranged a meeting due to postponement on a planned Danish clubs meeting If that happens then the club could have a problem as I think they will only be able to replace Morris with a National League rider.

Very difficult to do while not all teams have been filled. But here goes. (1) Belle Vue (2) Sheffield (3) Wolves (4) Leicester (5) Peterborough (6) Kings Lynn (7) Ipswich But that can change depending who Ipswich and Peterborough bring in.

Possible riders available. Ty Proctor Jack Smith Josh McDonald Kasper Andersen Adam Roynon Ryan Kingsley Gino Manzares

Birmingham have 4:22 left Connor Bailey average 4:32 So no he does not fit.

So only 8 Premiership places (Excluding Rising Stars). So from which countries have these riders that have filled these rider positions.? Well only 29% of filled places were UK riders A breakdown of the rest is as follows; Australia 41% Denmark 12% Poland 6% Germany 6% France 3% USA 3% Of the team place left there are two rider vacancies at Ipswich and 6 at Peterborough. Interestingly the Kings Lynn team does not have a UK rider other than the Rising Star. So what are the chances of Peterborough and Ipswich filling the remaining spaces with UK riders.

Palm Toft next

Based on the final rolling averages These riders finish above Kyle's average Chris Harris Sam Masters Josh Pickering Nick Morris Ryan Douglas Based on 9 teams in the league, he maybe at this moment is classed as an out and out number.

Wakey Wakey. Ipswich Jack Thomas.
