TTT

Won't be 22 until Mid-April and the season normally starts just before then.

All of the big hitters are gone If Fricke goes back to Leicester and Lambert doesn't ride in Britain. Could be looking at another strength in depth side if the above happens. 1. J. Kvech 6.76 2. N. Klindt 5.76 3. B. Cook 6.62 4. C. Harris 6.38 5. R. Lawson 6.63 6. C. Rushen 4.74 7. J. Scott (RS) = 36.89

I'd take a punt on Reid Battye if Kyle Howarth isn't an option.

Luke Killeen would qualify for a -25% reduction if he rides as a No.6 as it would be his first year out of the Rising Star Scheme. Team 1 1. J. Holder 8.75 2. K. Howarth 4.63 3. T. Brennan 5.76 4. L. Flint 5.99 5. J. Pickering 8.27 6. L. Killeen 3.00 (Minimum PREMIERSHIP Average) 7. Rising Star = 36.40 Team 2 1. J. Holder 8.75 2. A. Rowe 5.92 3. T. Brennan 5.76 4. L. Flint 5.99 5. C. Holder 7.25 6. L. Killeen 3.00 (Minimum PREMIERSHIP Average) 7. Rising Star = 36.67

May look like a long tail on paper but it won't be once Clubs start announcing signings due to the 2027 rule in regards to U21 riders. Drew Kemp's head goes from time to time but he's got so much experience in the PREM to a point where all he has to is clean up the easy points against your out of depth Rising Stars and flaky foreign U21 riders who wouldn't have ridden a British track before. Will Cairns is head and shoulders above some of the names being branded for reserve spots next season to a point where he's certain to clean up the vast majority of the time and every Club knows it as well hence the bidding war over him when it comes to the Top 3 Clubs in Britain who always feature in the Play-Offs. All Danny King has to do is 7/8 Points a night, Nothing flashy like a 10+1 will be needed, Just solid consistency will do the job because Doyle, Bewley and Cairns should be around the 29/30 Pts a night mark. Therefore Kemp, Foord and the other 2nd String will only need to get 10 between them to win.

I wish Tom all the best and even though it won't be at Ipswich, I still hope to see him get back to his best. Been a rollercoaster journey at Ipswich for Tom, The highest of high's and the lowest of low's but the good times will always be the ones that are remembered. Think that pretty much confirms the Dan Bewley deal as well tbh. Something had to come from the Wroclaw Agreement when Richard Coleman was hinting at dual contracts in the Press release.

Latest word doing the rounds is that Tom is off to Sheffield and that Bewley is heading to Ipswich in a top heavy side.

No rumours of Rushen being in (As of yet) but it's interesting that this Team = 37.00 exactly and it features 6 rumoured riders. Also if Doyley runs on a ACU license would he qualify for the 2.5% Reduction? If he would qualify then JD would be on a 8.40. 1. J. Doyle 8.62 2. C. Rushen 4.73 3. D. King 7.17 4. D. Kemp 4.92 5. D. Bewley 8.56 6. W. Cairns 3.00 7. V. Foord (RS)

What average would C. Holder be on?

Jake Mulford as the No.6?

Wasn't it Vinnie Foord after a debate about whether he was allowed to guest or not?

Drew Kemp isn't in Leicester's plans for 2027. Witches tail has Kemp, Cairns and a Rising Star written all over it tbh and I'd be very happy with that tbh.

Best 1-7 I can put together with info on Bewley, Lidsey, Cairns etc. 1. B. Kurtz 9.22 2. T. Zischke 5.47 3. M. Zagar 5.71 4. N. Blodorn 6.02 5. Z. Cook 7.35 6. 3.00 7. Rising Star = 36.77

Much like Stewart Dickson then when it comes to Leicester. Will stick with as many riders as possible and help them progress as much as they can.

As soon as the Wroclaw agreement hit Belle Vue the pivot should've been Kurtz, B. Cook and Lidsey as a Top 3.
