Dandelion

I agree, Danny needs to up his game fast or else... I'd like to see another Danny in instead of him, mainly for the entertainment and crowd pumping... But I doubt averages would allow that... Think Connor looked nice and smooth and in a few months time he could solidly score 3 or 4 point a meeting, as long as he's put in the number 7 spot!! Every team should have a 2.00 reserve in anyway, imo .....Darryl Ritchings and Dan Greenwood looked good when I saw them last year.....

I think having meetings as important as these this close to the beginning of the season is the cockup...

Technically, Connor Coles is in the senior reserve position, which I think is wrong, if he was at 7, against other number 7s he'd score a lot more, he's not going to beat other number 6s yet, and neither is Danny, but I think Connor is more likely to beat other number 7s rather than Danny... I want to see Connor at 7 and Danny at 6... Agreed, best ride I can remember...

Looking forward to seeing them on Sunday because apparently some dude who 'feels no fear' is more important in the sport section of the news than an actual North East sports team and I'm going away to Finland now, so I won't be able to watch the news

Similar to what I think it'll be

Hope so I heard they were grey and black, which sound really cool to me Sounds like Danny and Connor might not be too bad in the end, hope Danny has a lot better season next year and Connor settles in well Hope that's not a sign of things to come with Robert and Ludvig though Good to hear that Steve and Ashley were doing good and especially Lewis after his injuries, even though his bike sounds weird Good luck for 2017 to not just the Diamonds, but to all the riders in the world, safe travels

Was it really that uninteresting? lol, I just want to know what this years kevlars and bikes look like

I know, there was like 10 minutes of football everynight, and then they MIGHT mention one other sport and that's it..... But normally the speedway gets a mention once a year when the P&P is on, plus, the Newcastle twitter has some dude from the BBC on it

Would have liked to have been, but couldn't make it unfortunately Surprised that BBC Look North didn't have anything

Any news/pictures from Sunday or today?

So his average would be double whatever his PL average is? That's a shame really because it means he's less likely to get a team place anywhere now... Same goes for the likes of Stefan, the new system has been really harsh on some Brits.....

??? That was his average for IOW last year was it not? Lee Payne is a good signing, just need Kyle now and definitely a great looking side

This is the team I put together for Belle Vue in December... When the limit was still 40 and I thought that reserves should get 2.00 averages, like in the EL AND PL 1. Dan Bewley 8.65 2. James Shanes 8.63 3. Joe Jacobs 8.53 4. Rob Shuttleworth 6.60/Jack Smith 6.32 5. Andy Mellish 3.21 6. David Holt 2.00 7. Kyle Bickley 2.00 Total: 39.62/39.11 Still hope Joe Jacobs gets that team spot..... Also, any idea why James Shanes only has a EL spot?

Berwick at home, but Newcastle to do them overall, hoping to get to both fixtures, but looking unlikely

What?

Drama drama drama...

I'd like to see 1. Matej Zagar 10.47 (Tai Woffinden - Never going to happen, fantasy xD But it makes an all Brit team) 2. Joe Jacobs/Kenneth Hansen/Lasse Bjerre 5.36/6.74/6.64 3. Richie Worrall 8.49 4. Steve Worrall 8.47 5. Craig Cook 9.82 6. Dan Bewley 3.90 7. Jack Smith 2.00 Very British and very good, even with Jacobs at 2

Thank you very much for the information, so it's basically just a trophy for the national league, but they're not forcing all teams to compete because maybe they can't? Thanks for the heads up

Firstly, sorry if this is the wrong thread for this topic, is the National Trophy even related to the National League? I have a few questions about it as I cannot find any information anywhere about it What are the rules regarding team building? Who is in it? Which teams? Riders? When are the meetings held? Is there a website that talks specifically about it, because I'm buggered if I can find it? What's it's aim? Youth? Just some random extra meetings? Thanks!!

1. Matej Zagar 10.47 2. Joe Jacobs 5.36 3. Richie Worrall 8.49 4. Steve Worrall 8.47 5. Craig Cook 9.83 6. Lee Payne 2.68 7. Dan Bewley 3.90 Weak reserves but strong top 4, but if that's seen as a problem this might be more appealing 1. Craig Cook 9.83 2. Justin Sedgemen 7.60 3. Steve Worrall 8.47 4. Jonas B Andersen 6.30 (Or 6.35 to play with) (Or 8.25 to play with, with Shuttleworth at reserve, Richard Lawson, Ricky Wells?) 5. Richie Worrall 8.49 6. Joe Jacobs 5.36 7. Dan Bewley 3.90 (Or Rob Shuttleworth 2.00)

But Lebedevs, Erik or Wolbert didn't ride in the EL in 2016 either???

Assuming they use Andzejs 4.50 average from 2013 and convert it be x1.4, he will come in on 6.30, putting him at reserve!

I don't really know what's going on at Belle Vue, so forgive me, but is there any idea when your first signings might be announced? The season is not that far away! In the Premier AND National league

So, what average does Lebedevs come in on? Disappointed not to see Szymon back (Dunno how him and the club got on) but I really liked him and wish he had stayed in British speedway Regardless of that, Leicester look solid this year, good luck

I hope Wozniak signs too
