You looking in the mirror again Lewy!? Ha ha. They don't like it up' em, Capt Mainwaring.

Nope! PS.... and could it be a very unexpected JG?

Always great to have a strong number 1.😝 BTW you have to congratulate Plymouth for running a NDL team in 2025. Gladiator fans will be well pleased to be able to watch both their teams of similar strength.😂

No issue with any of that Glasgow list, although I'm surprised coming from a Plymouth 'fan'!

Wow, speedway fans who like winning?! Who would have thought it? I guess it's difficult to appreciate down Plymouth way.

Maybe they have better stadium landlords and can run NDL at weekends?

Because Poole usually has a highly competitive senior side!

Why is it an inferior product. If you build a reasonable 1-7 and are up against similar strength opposition then the racing should be just as good. Then it's,a question of how you promote/publicise your club and its fixtures.

Crikey the cheap Xmas cracker jokes are coming out early!! Interestingly most of those clubs opting to run in NDL next year, as well as having full access to their tracks (ex Brum) are all choosing to run NDL at the weekends - Fri-Sun - rather than midweek.

Ho ho ho

It's called 'good club management'!! Even when they ran Bournemouth Buccaneers, with Garry May as TM, and won everything, admission was £10 (reduced to £5 for main team season ticket holders), but still didn't attract decent crowds to be sustainable.

Midweek Curfew!

Shame you get neither in Devon.🤣🤣

£10k?? I bet that doesn't even cover stadium rent for 5 nl meetings let alone all other costs and a massively reduced attendance income...!

If you have control over ALL stadium and staffing costs, then ok maybe

Whatever!? He will still do a good job as second heat leader with new bikes, machinery etc as long as he stays injury-free.

Boughen goes where his mentor - Bomber - goes! Simples.

..and dear old Mark Philips and Garry May missed out on both of them!! Was it down to money or the track, or both?

But surely that logic still puts him in the top 15?

According to the final GSAs, there were 20 riders with 7.00+ averages and Lewi Kerr was 13th on 7.96 (7.76 for team building), despite carrying an injury for most of the season as well as most of the Berwick team with Schlein and Borke out for most of it. He should make 8.50 as a Pirate no problem.

...or Aussie!?

Good to see Lewi Kerr (7.76) has brand new machinery, some new sponsors and is great mates with Rich Lawson. Not a bad spearhead as long as he stays injury-free.

Good. ZK could always talk the talk!

No way will Matt Ford have Kelleher ever ride for one of his teams again! Burned his bridges as they say!!
