With the Bates owning Leicester he could practice there all day long I’m sure there would be a couple of young brits who would share the track with him. They could have some gating practice, he could give them a start and chase them down and check out any bike problems at the same time. I appreciate it’s not like the pressure of a proper meeting but at least it’s bike time he claims he’s missing. I’m hoping when Jack goes to number 1 Bachelor don’t feel the pressure as much and can relax a bit and hopefully his scores improve.

Jack rode today and got 9 points so he should be back unless he has a relapse. I think Shanes would be best RS option and that position needs sorting ASAP. If Jack moves upto number 1 Bachelor to 3 or 4 that might take pressure off him and give him another couple of meetings to improve. It’s a bit of a conundrum

Vaculik big mates with steady What average would he be on. Poland finishes soon so we could have a decent selection to choose from

I think ideally we need a triple change but don’t think Kennett /Barker plus another is the way to go. I’d be tempted to get Shanes in for Bates and I’d love to see Nicki in for Bachelor and then see what points we have left. It’s easy to get rid of Bachelor but harder to replace him. We’ve done it previously when we got shut of Bjerre and weakend the team.

James Shane’s could come in he’s not riding in the premiership and is a RS. He’d be more useful than Bickley has been surely. Changes need to be done before Kings Lynn away

Obviously love island They are lucky to string a sentence together but will rake in thousands of pounds. Batch will be lucky to cover his fuel the way he’s performing !!!!!

Yes it is if you like to watch talentless people making a fortune

Changes need to happen before the next meeting. Not sure Iverssen is the answer he seems to be injury prone last few years. I don’t get why so many people slag basically all televised meetings off. This is modern day speedway. The bikes are too fast for the outdated British tracks. Sometimes the production of the meeting is poor as the camera seems to follow the race leader and not the race behind him. It’s the same with th GP. You never get 15 heats of brilliant speedway we never have. It’s a myth that some think that from the 70s Arena Essex and Eastbourne always had poor meetings when they raced against teams from bigger tracks on their Mickey Mouse trick tracks. At the end of the day if the meeting is boring turn the Chanel over and watch a soap or love island. I know what I would rather watch

Well done Peterborough best team won on the night Expected it. I predicted 38-52 so not far out. We never going to win when our number performs like he does. Got to be his last meeting. Need to be looking at sorting reserves out if we’ve got any ambition. Would james Shane’s be worth a go as RS. Bickley poor choice never going to score as on his last appearance. James wright has had his chance now. I would love to see Nicki pedersen Shane’s and AN other at reserve. Thanks to Nick Morris for stepping in but never going to get near Holders points potential.

Stannington. Don’t think it’s forecast rain today but if it comes it will be after we’ve got the track watered no doubt hopefully it stays away

Been thundering 1 mile from track no rain as yet

Can’t see Bickley troubling the scorers unless he can beat Palin. Replacing Holder is never going to be easy as he’s irreplaceable around Sheffield so can’t see Morris getting near what Jack would. Think our first defeat at home tonight is a possibility. Peterborough will be wounded from the Belle Vue meeting so not a good time to take them on. Hope I’m wrong and we can get another 3 points but I’m not confident.

So when are our averages available for team changes ?

I’d take pedersen

Might be some riders freed up in Poland shortly who fit the bill for number 1

If jack Holder isn’t fit and Bachelor continues his woeful form Peterborough will win easy We’ve rode our luck at home so far and percentages say we won’t get away with it every week. Hope we can beat Peterborough obviously but it will be our hardest meeting so far and I’m not confident. There’s been some strange results this season in this league and I expect it to continue. We need to make changes if we want to win the league.

I don’t expect him to get double figures everywhere but he’s more experienced than Kemp Brennan Rowe who often score more than 3 points !!!!

We are currently a 4 man team with 3 iffy riders. If Bachelor can get consistent and we can replace the reserves we could be very competitive in the top 4 but while we’ve got Bachelor in erratic form and wright doing nothing after heat 2 and Bates being a liability we are going to be lucky to qualify for the play offs as these stats prove

I heard it’s Bomber at reserve

I would love Bachelor to get back to form rather than replace him but if we have any ambition either he changes his attitude or we make team changes. If you watch a video of this seasons meetings and see the effort he’s put in on track it’s way below what you expect from a rider of his calibre. I don’t understand how crump can have a 12 average in the CL yet bachelor can’t ride. With our Mickey Mouse rules it’s a joke. He would be down to around a 9 or10 average you would expect around now. With this current team we will struggle to make the play offs and dread to think how many we will lose by next Thursday. Harris will be available for 7 rides if needed. We rode our luck with Wells engine failure last night and will need a lot more than that against a very strong Peterborough team.

Quite possibly so. He either looks a world beater or can’t be bothered. So if he don’t want to be here then move him out. Minimum requirement for me is effort and we don’t see that. Compare him to josh Pickering s effort and Kyle howarth effort tonight and he’s not in the same league I feel embarrassed for him to be honest because he’s well capable of loads more points

Trying to get sack I think. Patience is wearing thin on the terraces Trouble is who would replace him ? Unless we could get pedersen in

Some poor races to start with on wet track but then some cracking racing once track dried out. Well done kings Lynn deserved a point at least. Pickering Howarth and Ellis excellent. King did a good job standing in for holder but never going to replicate his performances. Thompson did his best and looks like he might be worth another go. Bachelor awful again. We won’t win anything with him at number 1. Thanks to Danny King for guesting and getting us 3 points closer to Ipswich. If Holders missing next week we will get hammered on live tv

Looking forward to seeing Dan Thompson tonight and he’s deserved his chance to see where he’s at with his development and also looking forward to Josh Pickering debut Hope both lads hit the ground running

King for holder Dan Thompson for bates
