Huge respect to Workington! Going out all over the world to get new riders in british speedway. Fraser Bowes signs for comets. Another new rider onto our shores

And there people were absolutely convinced he signed for Oxford. Some people really need to check there sources

Birmingham team from my sources is pretty much done.

Ethridge confirmed

Quality signing if he doesn't dissappear. Good number when he gets going. And he was a rider I didn't know had signed. Brummies team is looking good

I wouldn't panic Poole fans, they always build great sides. They are probably the only club that takes real care in selecting riders. I mean Tobias Thomson was a masterstroke of signing. Came from nowhere and everyone thought he would be bang average. Poole saw something else. A rider with experience and potential to improve on his average beating riders that are far younger and less experienced. They don't just sign a rider for the sake of averages, they look at the finer details. That's what makes them better at team building.

Even thought we are weaker at 2 with lawson departing for Howarth. Lets not forget how good Howarth was at when he was in the Championship at Leicester. Yes it's a different league but Stewart commented on the Lions website stating Kyle will get plenty of practice laps in before the season starts and during. He can ride the track well once he gets going. If cook does sign then it is an upgrade on Kemp who started the season with us. Again it's a risk but with Stewart working with him at Berwick you would like to think he can be a decent point scorer like Kyle if he gets dialled in. So really the team hasn't changed much. It really all depends on how Kyle, Craig and Luke all progress. If they can get better then the Lions should have another decent season.

Won't be Douglas sorry to dissapoint you

Seen worse guesses. Been told half the side but can't reveal anything but it's better than I thought it would be

If it is that team I'm fine with it. Solid but nothing too exciting

Howarth confirmed

I can't see either of them getting a big number 1 but would be delighted to be proved wrong. I expect Tungate and Magic to settle at 1 and 5 with plenty of riders that are on a 5/6 point averages. Birmingham I really don't have a clue

It depends on who you are up against. At home Lawson will be probably end up at 5 but if I was up against a team away from home where I'm struggling to see wins in certain heats you can try target other heats like heat 8 and 14 etc

I'd put Kvech at 4 personally. Rob has a great opportunity to switch riders around depending on the opposition. Could easily put Cook and Lawson as a pair and that gives Lawson heat 8 as well. Makes them strong in heats others aren't.

Cracking side I reckon. A matter of keeping riders fit ofcourse
