TTT

So are we now ruling out Nilsson and Thorssell? They surely would've been announced tonight if they were the last two as rumoured. Are we possibly looking at two from the following four? Sedgmen, Vuolas, S. Worrall & Kerr

I agree with a few other members, This is the way to go. 1. Covatti 2. Bowtell 3. Barker 4. J. Thompson 5. Palm Toft (Get a good choice of guests when the inevitable happens) 6. Fredriksen 7. Trigger

Are you trying to convince yourself or are you trying to convince everyone else lol.

8.50 Champ confirmed on Berwick's rider profile page for PK which means that he must be a 6.00 in the Prem.

Oxford have learnt a lesson this winter, Don't go chasing a pipe dream that's very unlikely to become a reality (Bewley) Utter madness and now they've left themselves well short in 2025 to a point where they're relying on the old Kildemand to turn up, Relying on Tungate to become an established No.1 over a full season in a stronger 2025 Premiership as well as relying on a rider from Europe to fill the last spot otherwise they're well under the limit with a British based rider like Steve Worrall, Justin Sedgmen, Lewis Kerr etc.

It would've helped if they let us know in the AGM press release. Berwick's rider profile page does have Kildemand down as 8.50 though so perhaps the conversion rate is now 1.4 and the higher ups have just rounded the assessed Kildemand figure up to 8.50 instead of 8.40.

Berwick have now confirmed Kildemand's average of 8.50 which means he's a 6.00 in the Premiership.

Kildemand confirmed as the No.1 at Berwick. Conversion rate is x 1.5 isn't it? Therefore Kildemand has to be on a GSA over 5.50 considering Cook's Championship average is 8.42 after the 2.5% Reduction. Erik Riss' 5.55 Premiership average only converts into a 8.32 Championship average.

1. GLASGOW (Weak reserve pairing but the top 5 is brilliant, Expect Boughen to kick on riding at No.2 with Harris at No.1) 2. POOLE (Assuming they sign Cairns when eligible to ride) 3. REDCAR (Brilliant top 5 see's them comfortably finish in the top 4 imo) 4. OXFORD (Based on Nicholls signing once he's recovered from surgery) 5. WORKINGTON (Young team with lots of improvement in them imo) 6. SCUNTHORPE (Strong Home Form will see them finish in mid-table imo) 7. BERWICK (Schlein will be going through the motions and if the replacement is Nick Morris then he might take a while to get going) 8. EDINBURGH (Sedgmen and Castagna at No.1 & No.5 isn't going to cut it in 2025 imo) 9. PLYMOUTH (They won't pose a threat to anyone in 2025 no matter who the final signings are imo)

Kildemand defo worth the punt if he's on a 4.50/5.00. Not the same rider he was but at least you're getting more than 2 points off of his last GSA on these shores.

Looked underwhelming at the time but Stewart Dickson might have made a shrewd move when putting Leicester's 1-7 together. They've got 6 experienced riders on British tracks who can all hit the ground running. A couple of other clubs will be relying on newcomers / returning riders to get it right from the get go and like we saw with Janowski in 2024 it can take a long time to get back into the groove on our tracks.

Demoltion Derby at Sandy Lane next season if Kildemand rides at No.4 with Wright at No.3.

I guess we will find out at the weekend if Oxford keep announcing daily signings. Would help if they went down the Workington route in regards to press releases by telling everyone what averages riders have been Assessed/Reassessed to.

Kildemand wouldn't be a 5.00 because he's not a newcomer unlike Lampart last year who was handed a 5.00 For what it's worth returning riders to British Speedway last year like Pawlicki and Milik were given 7.50's. I'd expect Kildemand to be given a minimum of 6.00.

Oxford need the old Peter Kildemand in 2025 because the side isn't looking that good on paper when you compare it with other teams 1-7's.
