Bowes is an unknown quantity for myself personally but it is never easy coming into the British League. Looks like we are putting a lot of faith in Tate and Antti kicking on a bit next season ๐ค
-
Our away scoring capability is a slight worry the way the team looks to be shaping up.
-
Would appear that there is no requirement for a 2pt reserve for 2025. Always need at least 1 good resrve and preferably 2 . I've always thought a top 1 and 5 coupled with 1 strong reserve are pre-requisites to being very competetive.
-
Don't believe anyone should include Sam in 2025 Comets lineup, it won't happen.
-
Many question marks over this team. Antti and Tate still relative newcomers and learners . Bowes and Lightcap total newcomers and unlikely to be as effective as Tate and Antti in their first season. Jye Etheridge can hardly be classed as an improver and isn't great away from home. Vulnerable for sure.
-
Need a proven scorer or two on away tracks now to maintain a good balance, aggregate bonus points are very important
-
You sure about that
-
Think I would also be surprised .
-
Think it highely unlikely.

A great capture for one of our two reserves. Racers are the guys who don't know when they are beaten and provide the fans with what they pay for ie entertainment. Plenty of room on the GT Tyres Arena Northside track for Vinnie to race on and some good people at the club to provide guidance and help channel his will to win and youthful exuberance . No worries here about bursting what will be new air fence panels ๐๐๐

Yeah, Batch put in a big performance at Redcar in the meeting Cookie went missing to give us a shot at the bonus which we couldn't quite achieve as it subsequently turned out. Then followed that up with another big performance at Berwick in the win that really cemented the playoffs ๐

I believe he has signed for Opole Diamonds85 and cited this as a reason for him not being back at Glasgow in 25. -
Gotta be very careful what you post or say these days lol.
-
Pure speculation as we do not know the team

Hasn't James Pearson signed for Opole in Polish league -
Would like to know what team you are hearing Midget. Disaster is a strong word.

I was at Redcar that night along with many other Comets fans. We were only given a facility to use Rider Replacement because of the goodwill of the referee. It seemed that the club only found out Craig wasn't coming about an hour before tapes up having reportedly been informed by Dayle Wood. The travelling fans were not happy. It just seemed very unprofessional.
-
These do not sound like the words of someone who is a true supporter. Before going into print with baseless personal opinions may I respectfully remind you that such rubbish could affect the club in a negative way. Don't forget that Andrew and Steve offered Craig a team place last season when no other club would and in doing so also led the way to a Premiership position and have put him in a very favourable position for getting a team position in both leagues next season. There will be reasons why Craig isn't back and although a loss speedway goes on and i'm sure the team put together will be competetive. UTC !

Hope not, a draw should mean a draw end of.
-
Never a bad thing if a local MP wants to come spectate and better still becomes a fan as a result.
-
Yeah, bit surprised that the Riders Championship has been scheduled so early. Wonder if this is going to be an early season event for the next 3 years ? 2025 form would then influence picks for 2026. The BSN was allowed to drag on in 24, wonder if more urgency will be applied in 25 to get the latter stages completed sooner.
-
Got to agree BSN have brought more entertaining and wider coverage to the Championship. However, fans do not know what individual clubs have received in financial reward from BSN. More fixtures for BSN to televise should result in a bigger pot of money to be divided out to the Clubs should it not. However potential impact of supporters watching meetings at home for ยฃ11-99 or much less instead of attending away or home fixtures has yet to be fully ascertained imo.
-
It's not about peeing anyone off, Poole were insulated from the lack of fixtures experienced by some clubs last season. Looks like you are going to get another couple of fixtures minimum next season being included in the Premiership KO Cup. The Premiership don't have a BSN Series wonder if that p!$$e$ them off. You never said anything about the idea of having a North and South BSN section. Sure the BSPA could have worked round 9 teams like they have with the Premiership KO Cup. BSN could always sponsor the Championship KO Cup.
-
Some sensible decisions like having the Pairs and PLRC early season over same weekend weather permitting of course. Would have rather seen either dropping the BSN and having 2H/2A or just a North and South league. Still an issue of potentially too few fixtures for some teams. Like the 40 point limit .
-
Highly likely Craig will be back at Leicester next season so I wouldn't be surprised .
