In all prev named riders I have no inside knowledge just going off what I've read on here. As you say maybe they planned not to use Riss but now Richie has gone they've reneged on any deal with Redcar?

Back in stripes

In speedway terms in particular championship I don't consider it ages tbh. We've come close a few times as you say but every year under facenna ownership made the play offs. Never guaranteed but always know they'll be trying hard again the next year. We had nearly twenty years since the legendary 93/94 double double side and before that we had we'd won the inside of a donut!!

No Richie thrown a spanner in monarchs team building? Can't think anyone likely to be available on similar average. Ellis, Jake Allen, ulle, Douglas, Riss etc all seem to be signed if believe the rumours

Btw, is 10 years really ages?

That's how I'd build a side personally too. As you say strong 13 and 15 and on paper always a strong reserve if any of middle 3 having an off day and no pressure on no 7 to let them develop

No right or wrong way to build a team. Look at Poole and Glasgow, entirely different make ups got to the final. Personal preference is a strong 1 and 5 and at least one good reserve, but the only correct one will be the one that wind the league

I was brought up on bowes and Lyons, Parker and stancl, Parker and bird, Parker and greives, screen and Josh G, Lawson and summers all 8.5 average plus. Sub 7.5 doesn't strike me as a big hitter personally

Are any of those "big hitters"?

In the UK. Not England thank you very much lol. Masters had same issue couple years ago

Rides in 1st Division. Sure last season the chat was his visa only allowed for one league

Sooo.... What's false about his average if it's based on his form?

Talk me through that? Most teams built to a 42 point limit for 2020. There were minimal changes when RS scheme was introduced. We're building to 42 points again for 2022. Nope I'm definitely not following you there

I'd guess probably some of the Kent contingent. Nichols, batch and Dan Gilkes possibly?

Honestly never been impressed with manzares, has had more than one go here rarely been above reserve/ second string. Thought Poole might have learner with Danyon Hume that British riders are often better than expensive foreign riders at bottom end of your team

Completely accurate, he's a trier and a great lad as well. I wouldn't be upset if we kept him but rumour I've heard is last season's second strings won't be back

Sam Jensen did pretty well last time he was at Berwick. He might be available. No sure a track he'd be suited to right enough

I'd be very very surprised and horrified given how he left, his comments on the track and his recent ashfield performances. Would not be a popular signing imo

Richie won't be going to Glasgow

Track was changed his 3rd year, was dropped and publicly stated hated the changes

And if insinuation is my beloved stripes then that's hilarious. Hates the track and hardly closer to st Helens than Edinburgh

He's never rode for Berwick

Yeah think heeps can name his price this winter

Doesn't sound like Richie

How dare Leon and Jordan perform so damn well. It's an outrage . Personally think a 2 U23 Brits minimum should maybe have come in to replace it but the RS scheme was flawed from the start
