So youre in agreement that you didnt even beat us we beat ourselves, what memorable victory in the clubs history 😂😂 Can only beat whats in front of you of course! Away from that banter, do hope panthers can pull out some decent top end riders from somewhere, need two competitive teams for a good derby! And also the racetrack is one of my favourites around and should be graced with top boys every week! Irrespective of the sour end to last year no one can argue Jack was pretty special round the Showground! Personally dont think you should have him back tho, wont get the respect from him or Torun.

**Inherit by default and still only claim by the skin of ya teeth due to injuries 😏😉

Not at all like that at Ipswich last year and Im sure the wolves fans would agree, great young lad with a good attitude and plenty of potential, incidentally both Ipswich and wolves crowdfunded online and with collection buckets for him last year to help with ever increasing machinery bills - their willingness to help to me is testament to his character and efforts on track wouldnt have done if he was different, shame he couldnt be fitted back in again this year at Foxhall, expect him to improve on his starting average again this year.

Ironically it seems the one rider over 8 wouldve been more beneficial in championship! Although I still wouldnt of liked to see it happen, the restriction stopping nicholls, Andersen, Bellego kennett etc. Dropping down is baffling

Maybe a return for greaves but at no.2 with Wood + another at reserve?

Cameron Heeps 😉

Adam Ellis could slot nicely into a second string berth at Glasgow next year, would do well round there I would think the track would suit him

Ludvig has tweeted hes got bikes and gear ready to go for uk 2018 but no uk team....so looks like he may not be back at Newcastle next year

knowing someone closely related to Alex, dont think he ever quit speedway just couldnt get a team spot last year

Absolutely right and in bringing him in we were never going to be able fit everyone from last year in! Frankly would of been harsh to leave any of them out barring sedgmen. Thats speedway and its onwards and upwards! Best of luck to Kyle and Nathan, wouldnt be surprised or disappointed to see either back again one day! Poor top 3 based on what? Rory scored more points than any other rider in league last season and king won the most races. Covatti was flying home and away before getting injured

Like our promotion knew the rules this year....at the time of the sedge mountain sacking..... 🙃

Arent the tracks in Germany generally smallish and more technical anyway compared to Poland etc.????

In place of who!? For them to bring Haertel over mist of been on of the first building blocks in place, hes the only one who would straight swap out as it were average wise. Pleased with the team, the way Cameron was going last year we essentially have 4 heat leaders two good reserves and potential trump card in a new rider to the league. 👍🏻

For sure, think it was only a consideration if they were otherwise forced away from thursdays, championship on a Thursday was always Louis first choice I believe

Still think despite the footy picture, Connor is to miss out in terms of numbers, Jenkins and Hume to be reserve pair allowing maximum amount for 1-5

Would Scott really pick lakeside over Ipswich???

Perhaps, although I think with Louis being quoted as saying hes not looking to rip apart team from this year the proposed teams put forward arent far past the mark. Suppose it will be Scott Danny Cam Nico Kyle Danyon Jordan Only way Gino could displace someone there is if he was say suffienciently lower than Kyle to also accommodate greaves in place of one of the two reserves....hes not so falls foul of the numbers game. Hope to see him riding in uk next year tho, along with some of the other young up and coming Americans! No way Cameron Heeps isnt in the team

Gino manzares 4.18...... Has always done ok in the SWC at Lynn Dont know nielss average but 4.18 would leave 9.03 he may just fit in that!!??

Bates is very good at building speed on fast tracks, dont think hed take long to get dialled in at nss, would be a good rider for Belle Vue. Still think its a shame no one seems to be considering Jacobs....quality at the nss

Gino says on twitter tonight although wished to be back at Ipswich we couldnt fit him in...numbers game.

Does anyone know if British riders still get a 2.5% reduction??

I think youve misinterpreted this paragraph, I interpreted is if in top flight half the teams can all ride at home on the same night then surely they could do the same in championship on a Friday as its not clashing with the prem! If its good enough for top league should be good enough for champ too! Hes not suggesting half champ clubs ride same night as prem

Kennett can go very well at Foxhall but blows too hot and cold, need more consistency from heatleaders than he offers, rory for example this year rarely scored less than 8/9 away from home on tracks he hasnt been to for years - not much help getting 17 one week and 2 the next!

Yep Rory lower average than Scott 👍🏻

That lineup would mean Kyle at no.2 which is a strong rider in that position, also likely to be with nicholls most of the season whos a better team rider than Danny, whereas riding at 5 Dannys primary focus is beating opposite number and hoping reserve beats reserve rather than team riding a no.2 home. Should mean more 5-1s from 1-2 and still plenty of 4-2 from 5-7, cam and nico powerful 3-4 pairing, if cam maintains this seasons level and increases his away consistency could easily put another point on! Both danyon and Jordan would make a mockery of their starting averages, much like this year only thing holding it back would be injuries!!
