Surely just about every promotion/team has been burnt by Cook and his antics over the years that he has to be a last resort option for any team building. No doubting his ability but the baggage he unfortunately brings with him means the risk is a lot higher than the reward

Think Oxford will go down the top heavy 3 heat leaders/big hitters route along with Kileen and have quite a weak tail end, they’ve tried the 2 heat leaders and solid engine room but just not worked as ended up again with weak reserves, maybe this is the way to go to secure play off speedway in 2027

Honestly think Sheffield will struggle to get mid 30’s, can see Fricke nudging double digits the rest not scoring much to shout about as has been case in majority of away meetings this year

Could see Pickering at Northampton, it sure where he’ll end up in 2027 in the Premiership if not

As it says he’s in riding in the Championship not at Scunny but at a track he’s never represented before 🤷‍♂️

Tom B back in Championship but unfortunately for a Scunny will be a little further down the country at a new home track for him

Neither of those two from what I’ve heard

Sam definitely back at Oxford, think the fans will like the upcoming rider announcement

Standard 3,0,0,3 he’s usually first or last 😆

Zischke is at Scunthorpe for 2027 so I’d rule him out of the team building plans. Heard Dan T and Rowe both agreed terms for 2027

Thought on Klindt’s socials he was in Bangkok at minute unless he’s due back in UK for Friday

Also most of the Danish U21 riders like Mikkel Andersen, Baatian Pedersen and Vilads Nagel doing Poland, Denmark and Sweden as the third choice purely easier for logistics. A couple of the young Poles that I know talks have been held with by one UK club asking for quite a chunk of cash as not just points money but also then need mechanic, van, workshop, hotel and flights so in some instances equates to more than likes of Kurtz, Fricke and Holder getting as number 1’s. The continental U21’s know UK needs them more than they need UK so will be some pants being pulled down when it comes to negotiations

I was told that also

100% Scunthorpe, no room at Glasgow with the riders they’ve already signed (Harris, Thompson, Rowe 3 of them) and Workington’s payment issues this year means he isn’t back there
