  1. We don't have the highest number of season tickets sold. Think average is about 100-150
  2. Looks like Plymouth are in for jack holder
  3. Season ticket sales are up by 30% which is great news. 25% of which are new to getting a season ticket
  4. Yep very wrong. Every year I think he will leave and them he stays. Glad I was wrong on this one
  5. He tweeted he not riding for Somerset now. All though the tweet could very well be tongue in cheek and a wind up
  6. Holder and north signed Surprised you went the north route
  7. Hahahaha. This is the most funniest post I have ever read. He's not coming to leicester. Get over it
  8. So 1-7 now complete. And what a joy it will be to Wath these 7 lads at Kirky Lane. All of them are racers and ride our track well. We will be tough to beat at home. But I did think that last year. Here's what I think of the signings MARK LEMON - a great appointment, not alot of experience managing a league side but he as 20 years of experienced in EL and PL so tactically he should be astute and as I said in another post. Lemon will demand respect which he will get. I have heard he wants to change a few things including gate 4. He talks the talk. It's now time to walk the walk. MATEJ ZAGAR - The 31 year old is into his 3rd season. He should be pushing to a 9 point average next year. There's no better rider at Kirky Lane when in full flow. He will admit himself that he needs to win a hell of alot more heat ones. Especially away. But IMO will be in top 3 averages next year. Just got a feeling lemon won't take his bull and help zagar as a rider/team man. MAX FRICKE - What a signing. He's the future of the sport amongst others. Will be a gp rider within 5 years. Has a great style and is very smooth and fast. He learns quick and his feet are firmly on the ground. Hope people don't expect to much in his first full season at EL. If he gets an average of over 5. 5 I will be very happy. Any more which is possible will be a bonus. SIMON STEAD - In the tough 3rd heat leader position which he may struggle on a little bit. But maybe he will surprise us. He was flying end of last year and if he keeps that up he will do just fine. One thing is that he is a very nice man thst is well liked at belle vue. He can ride belle vue well but what's better is he is good at the bigger away tracks. He will drop his average but if he can get around the 6.5 average wise he will have had a good season. CRAIG COOK - He admits he owes us a great season after last. He ain't wrong. Got easy rides now and can see him being best middle order rider in league. This is his biggest year to date in speedway. And I think he will up his game. Again he talks the talk. Now go and walk the walk. He is our modern Mr belle vue with the loyalty he as shown. SCOTT NICHOLLS - The silver fox is back. Never looked like slowing down with age last year. As kitch says he needs another season like last year for us to win the league. If he carries on his form at home and improves away I really can see us getting to play off final. But I don't see him improving his average. He's 36 now and league as got tougher. But he still as alot to give and brings us more than just points. Him as captain and lemo as manager them 2 bring so much experience on and off the track. I see them being a dream team. STEVEN WORRALL - will find it tougher than last year as the FTD as improved. But he was 2nd in draft for a reason. Will win alot of races from reserve. Will be in top 5 reserve riders. STEFAN NIELSEN - we saw glimpses last year of what he can do when injury free. He struggled away but being number 7 should take the pressure on him. He needs a injury free season and if he does then we should have best reserve pair on league. Overall I'm very happy there is room for improvement with some of riders which is what's needed. Top 3 won't be the best but we will have one of the best no1s in league and we will have the very best bottom 4 riders. Not a spectacular stand out team but my god it is solid throughout. Usually solid teams don't have a decent number 1. We have and a good one at that. I predict a top 5 finish. But will wait for other teams to be complete. And maybe I will predict us top 2
  9. No surprise but really happy with the team. Well done management
  10. Can't see leicester getting anywhere near the points limit. Unless they pull a rabbit out of a hat
  11. Fricke is just doing EL. He doesn't want to ride PL
  12. Morris as a British mother or father so he can double up I think
  13. There's nearly as a wind up as your last post
  14. That's not hard. We could have the world's top 5 riders in team and finish bottom
  15. TBF musielek is a bit more than 10% better but may take longer to adapt
  16. Stead replaced Richie - 10x better at the moment ****** replacing toft - 100× better S worrall replacing reade/payne - 1 million times better So yes. We are much improved thanks How's your team building going???? Any joys on the apparent signing of Bertzon and return of woffy
  17. Hahahaha. Don't make me laugh. If he was signing for Wolves it would have been a post saying he's done right thing. He's riding Sweden and Denmark at least so he's riding elsewhere. He's ready for EL
  18. Every year I think he won't be back and and he always come back. And TBF I did that team before I knew we had a new manager 4 out of the 7 won't be a bad guess though lol
  19. He would be on more money than that surely
  20. Craig Cook signs for belle vue so not heading to your place. Sorry to dissappoint you
