This argument Max vs Jack is pretty uninteresting and petty... They're both GP riders, both brilliant in the UK, can we not just be happy to have big names riding in Britain because not many of them do, even in positives people find something to moan about
-
I know, it's just what I want to see... Where will Jenkins be then? Oxford perhaps? Although he's not in the Oxford team I've heard rumored
-
As Redcar is my closest track I'll probably visit a few times next year, hoping for some entertaining names on the team sheet, not too bothered about results, just want entertainment Ben Basso, Erik Riss, Charles Wright would be a nice heatleader trio Jordan Jenkins and Jason Edwards at 2 and 4 4.00 Aussie at reserve, Jacob Hook maybe? (If Edinburgh don't run that is) Declan Kennedy and Tate Zischke would be really good too, but I'm unsure if they're coming over next year? This totals 38.00 so depends on what the limit is (surely not under 40?) it's possible, the limit just depends on who the final rider is... 1. Erik Riss 2. Jason Edwards 3. Ben Basso 4. Jordan Jenkins 5. Charles Wright 6. 4.00er? Hook? 7. 2/3/4?? Depending on limit Any club who can get Josh Pickering and Ben Basso in the same lineup is the winner... Yes I realize this is very unrealistic, Basso won't be at Redcar, it's just a dream team I guess you could say
-
1. Scott Nicholls 2. Dan Gilkes 3. Lewis Kerr 4. Dillion Ruml 5. Steve Worrall 6. Cameron Heeps 7. Henry Atkins Not a bad team to be fair. Not sure on averages as to whether it's Dillion or Cameron in the main body?
-
Can't leave a lot for the final rider surely?

I'm not on about the joke of a sport we all love to hate I'm on about the 'jokes' that get repeated on this forum over and over... Your list is a whole other topic...
-
So I can actually hear some good jokes, unlike on here where you get the usual Kennet guest for Plymouth joke Glasgow stealing Poole riders joke Lawson to Plymouth joke All of which are repeated over, and over, and over, and over, and over again List a few more if you can think of any other repetitive bo!!ocks which was mildly funny the first time but is boring as all hell now

Scunthorpe vs Belle Vue vs Glasgow every week... One northern, one midlands and one southern... Perfect!! They can field teams in the Premiership, Championship and National League. And while they're at it bring back promotion/relegation so Scunthorpe juniors can fight Scunthorpe seniors for promotion I'd pay a small fortune weekly for that kind of entertainment
-
Duh... Obviously every ride he had for 10 meetings was a fluke
-
That would mean 14 home meetings in 6 months!! Next to impossible for some promotions to wrap their heads around that. They can barely fit in what they have to do now Although I do agree with you, I'd rather get rid of the stupid cup competitions and just have an extended league. One focus... No playoffs either, top of the league wins. But what should I care... My team doesn't exist anymore and never will

Ive heard Chris Harris and Leon Flint, but I don't know if that's the bandits fans usual pessimism

Plymouth Gladiators 2023
Diamonds85 replied to jbell1995's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Good start then, if they can get their 3 big riders from last year back and tempt gilkes and bowtell also, they're a brilliant team -
I really liked tero them few seasons he rode from the diamonds, real trier always giving 100%... what has happened? Did he just find a purple patch for us or what?

Plymouth Gladiators 2023
Diamonds85 replied to jbell1995's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Oh really? I haven't seen him announced personally, wasn't aware it was official, just strong rumours -
I still wouldn't if I were you Would have looked better not running it at all imo... Are Leicester going to make all of the gate profits on a meeting that they have no riders to pay in? And Sheffield are going to make no gate profits on a meeting that should have been at their home track...? Stinks
-
Better than the same old boring cr@p that Rob normally puts out? Bring back Josh Auty, Tero Aarnio and Simon Lambert
-
1. Ben Basso 2. Paul Starke 3. Craig Cook 4. Danyon Hume 5. Tom Brennan 6. Connor Bailey 7. RS or 2.61 Based on a 41 point limit with rising stars or a 39 point limit without
-
Leicester Lions B 1. Ryan Douglas 2. Simon Lambert/James Wright 3. Connor Mountain 4. Dan Thompson 5. Kyle Howarth 6. Zaine Kennedy 7. Joe Thompson Based on a 39 point limit with rising stars or 41 point limit without

Plymouth Gladiators 2023
Diamonds85 replied to jbell1995's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Personally would love to see something like... 1. Scott Nicholls/Richie Worrall... Pretty much the same average but I'd prefer Nicholls on a track like Plymouth tbh 2. Ben Barker (If allowed) 3. Michael Palm Toft 4. Dan Gilkes 5. Hans Andersen 6. Alfie Bowtell 7. 2.00er (Trigger? Kinsley? Coles? etc...) This is based on a 39 point limit with rising stars or a 41 point limit without -
Forgive me if I'm wrong but Anton Karlsson finished the 2022 season in Sweden with a 0.972 average per run. That is behind the likes of Peter Ljung (1.333), Joel Andersson (1.235), Ludvig Lindgren (1.170), Casper Henriksson!! (1.036 - Definitely the Swedish prospect you want to go for imo) and finishing JUST ahead of Daniel Henderson and the Grahn brothers He's been alright don't get me wrong, and he has a big future, but straight in the main body of a Championship team on a 5.00 average, riding the cr@p tracks we have in this country (not much worse than the Swedish ones I know) isn't exactly filling me with confidence. Tbh, I think he'd rather stay in Sweden and ride for Czestochowa u-24s again I like Anton, looks like a decent rider, but not yet... Unless the Championship is much weaker next year
-
Anton Karlsson on a 5.00 would be awful
-
So who's gonna be the 8th team then?
