Danny Ford states in the Star that the team will be a mix of old and new faces as whilst the Championship gives less opportunity to use their 'top end' assets, it does create more opportunities for new riders (assets?) elsewhere in the 1-7!!

You never know - he may get more than just a farewell meeting?!

Probably go for both Wright and Kurtz to replace Fricke and ANOther

Got to have someone to replace Fricke!!

Why only 6? They ran with 7 this year

I don't do twitter either but a couple of his tweets have been shared to other forums - or should that be fora?

who are the 2/3 teams being bribed for next season?

Which in many cases won't be to the benefit of the speedway promotion!!!

Judging by several of his tweets I would say 99% certain

Klindt going to the Foxhole.

He'll probably partner Emil again at 2 and be happy with 5-7 points a meeting

He's not going to give up a £50k signing fee very quickly is he?

What? The team that finished lower as it was a better than expected play-off performance?!

Although Scott would have similar 'availability' issues at all of the Saturday tracks whether riding and/or managing!

Can't see it being Eastbourne as they - like Leicester - are a Saturday track so still clashes with his BT commitments. I would put Kent much higher up the list of possible clubs.

Although Eastbourne have run a fan survey asking for opinions of Saturday nights v Sunday afternoon racing?! Its a nice little survey on their website!

Hans rides in the Danish league on some Wednesdays. Scott is leaving Leicester due to the number of Saturday fixture clashes with his BT Sport commitments. Meanwhile Kent confirm a 'surprise International rider' to be announced!!

He didn't have many this year!!

Doubt it'll be Poole cos MF just wants the loan fees!!

Quite correct.

...and assuming Nico rides in Britain at all next year?

Who will the Witches drop to get Nicolai in on 7.43? Or will it be a straight replacement for NKI?

I wonder if Max's decision has the full backing of the Australian Team Manager?

Nick Budimir is/was quite well known in the Bournemouth/Poole and East London areas for his involvement in a number of businesses both retail and corporate. He was one of a group of sponsors of Antonio Lindback back in the day. Maybe his plans for a 24/7 stadium facility might also include a nightclub-type of venue??!! If you search his name on Yahoo theres a video of him from 9 years ago talking about very similar plans and ideas for another greyhound track proposal which sounds very similar. There is also reference to his former employer - a certain Mr David Sullivan - which may ring a few bells for some?!

That applies to virtually half of the clubs in British speedway!!
