Everyone expecting Jack Holder back providing he proves his fitness over the winter, is it still but one Holder get one free? I don’t see the value in Chris’ average especially if he ends up at 5. Rumours of some new faces and some that have been there a few years exiting the scene. 1 J Holder 8.75 2 Brennan 5.76 3 C Holder 7.25 4 B Cook 6.62 5 6 7 Rising Star Points limits of anything between 37-40 been mentioned, initially was told it was 40 limit will see it’s been diluted. If it’s 40 then Sheffield have 11.62 for 2 riders, if it’s 37 then 8.62 for 2 riders Think they need a strong number 5 to back up J Holder, shame former Tiger Musielak going to Northampton as would have been a good option at number 5.

Think that sums up Pickering 100%

Heard it was now going to be in January. Hopefully delay is due to ironing out a TV deal

Bomber and Rowe nailed on for Kings Lynn so that’s the numbers 2 and 3 in team sorted, need a big hitter though to replace Leicester bound Fricke, tried the solid 1-6 before that didn’t end up being the right way to go, just not sure who is going to be the number 1 for the Stars this coming season

So if the jungle drums are right and Doyle and Bewley both end up as Ipswich’s number 1 and 5, who is going to come in at Belle Vue as number 5 to be backing up Brady Kurtz? What about Josh Pickering moving over the hill from Sheffield? Would fit Mark Lemon’s MO as an Aussie rider and could see him easily coming to grips with NSS as a home track

Parnitskyi would come in on a 7.50 have to be a GP rider for 2 consecutive seasons which he hasn’t, next bracket is 7.50 for Ekstraliga riders with 6+ average

Think Brennan will be only change in top 5 unfortunately (replacing Rowe), needed a bigger broom to clear out a few who have no value with their average especially with poor away number

Been the rule for a long time that highest averaged rider has to ride at number 1 and lowest two at 6 and 7, if Berwick have built there team more solid throughout then that’s their decision.

100% we’ve seen it so often that their assessed averages go south, very few have maintained it in first season

I can see Pickering coming in as number 1, he wants that race jacket in the Premiership and unfortunately for him he won’t get that at Sheffield for start of the upcoming season. With a 40 point average could move Musielak to 5 where he’s more comfortable (what an exciting pair for ht13 by the way!), can easily then accommodate Lidsey as third heat leader with Morris in engine room at 4 and Thomson remaining at 2

From a proposed team I was told (not Ipswich by the way) that was built to 40 points for the 6 riders with R/S not included. To have some new riders over in UK who would come in on assessed 7.50- 8 point averages 40 needs to be the minimum to increase the gap between both leagues

Looks like they had to choose between Dan T and Morris, imagine Thomson is the cheaper of the two also which with state of British Speedway woild have been a factor

Batchelor heading to Plymouth, he’ll be a solid scorer at home. Nicholls will be back along with Barker also so at least plenty experience in the team

Only stipulation is highest averaged ride has to ride at number 1, you can place your other riders anywhere in the 2-5 riding order, but usually have second highest at 5 and third highest at 3
