TTT

What are everyone's thoughts on Jaimon Lidsey 7.87? Been good in Australia and I think he's a rider who's only going to improve but the Foxhall record is a bit patchy however he wouldn't be riding against track specialists in every heat like he has been doing when competing as a visiting rider for Belle Vue.

Jonas Jeppesen is the rider i'd be going for at No.6.

I'm thinking that he might be the No.6 now instead of Zischke.

Pretty much, Reading between the lines. They're hoping somebody with deep pockets is willing to throw a lot of money down the drain to run Northampton at Oxford.

I'd happily have Rocket Man at Ipswich. Been a consistent performer for years in this league where his GSA rarely drops. Track specialist around King's Lynn and Leicester too which helps in a 5 Team League.

Chris Louis, Ritchie Hawkins and Danny King all leaving together after winning the big one seems a perfect send off imo. I'm not sure Danny will be signed on a 6.50 after 2.5% Reduction considering it's only a 37.00 Limit, No value in that GSA imo considering he'd likely be riding as a Heat Leader rather than a Second String. Technical Track specialist Luke Becker for an extra 0.38 is a much better option. For me, Tobiasz Musielak 6.63 has to be the priority signing as his GSA holds a lot of value imo.

Any takers? 1. T. Woffinden 8.45 2. J. Jenkins 4.49 (2.5% Discount) 3. L. Becker 6.88 or R. Lawson 6.83 4. T. Musielak 6.63 5. T. Brennan 7.05 6. B. Barker 3.37 7. J. Edwards (RS) = 36.87 / 36.82 or 1. T. Woffinden 8.45 2. M. Pollestad 5.00 3. T. Musielak 6.63 4. K. Rew 6.19 5. T. Brennan 7.05 6. J. Jenkins 3.46 (25% Discount) 7. J. Edwards (RS) = 36.78

Everyone makes mistakes in life. Leicester fans should be delighted with Morra's return. He's one of those riders who's on a bargin average that doesn't reflect his true ability. Great signing on a GSA below 6.00 imo.

I didn't know that, Thanks. Maybe something in those Woffinden rumours then.

Hawkins saying that he's working with Doyley and King this year points towards a Doyle U-Turn imo.

What I think. 1. J. Doyle 7.86 (U-Turn) 2. A. Ellis 5.92 3. D. King 6.50 4. K. Rew 6.19 5. T. Brennan 7.05 6. J. Jenkins 3.46 (25% Discount) 7. J. Edwards (RS) = 36.98

Should do, If he doesn't then he'll be at No.2 leading to a strong spearhead.

Now it's finally confirmed that we're running. Best reserve pairing in the League again once Jordan Jenkins is confirmed. Plenty of options to fill the 1-5.

Whatever happens, It'll still be better than the One Big League nonsense that some members were advocating for. Can't sink any lower than seeing a Top British League Team featuring No Show Craig Cook at No.1 whilst being backed up by Aaron Butcher and Jack Smith at reserve.

I assume this is the Belle Vue 1-7 then? One change from 2025. 1. B. Kurtz 8.97 2. N. Blodorn 4.87 3. Z. Cook 6.20 4. P-H. Bangs 5.00 5. D. Bewley 8.64 6. T. Zischke 3.00 7. J. Mulford (RS) = 36.68

I think Tai would tbh as he will need to get his race sharpness back after a long injury lay off and Britain is the best place to do that considering our season starts earlier than the foreign Leagues and the GP's.

I was told this 1-7 a while back and it's looking bang on so far. J. Holder Flint C. Holder Rowe Pickering Etheridge Harrison (RS)

Poor move regardless imo. Kurtz and Bewley is massive one-two punch but the rest of the team can't be anything to rave about imo considering it's just over 19.00 left for 4 Riders.

Think our selection pool of Riders will be..... Tai Woffinden Jaimon Lidsey Jason Doyle Tom Brennan Richard Lawson Tobiasz Musielak Danny King Nicolai Klindt Keynan Rew Adam Ellis Jordan Jenkins Jason Edwards

I've Included the 25% Reduction from a 6.74 GSA quoted on gbspeedway.com.

The Sheffield 2026 side that I've been told is..... 1. J. Holder 9.08 2. L. Flint 5.05 3. C. Holder 6.84 4. A. Rowe 5.22 5. J. Pickering 7.76 6. J. Etheridge 3.00 7. L. Harrison (RS) = 36.95

Where's Picko?

Out of curiosity what do you expect the Sheffield 1-7 to look like? Ipswich will have a better side than that from the names I've heard being mentioned.

I was going to post on here at Christmas Eve that if the signing comes off then it'll cause a mixed reaction.

I've heard the Tai rumour as well but we shall see if anything comes from it.
