Not for me, looks like they'll be vying for the spoon with Leicester.

I thought Douglas was poor this year when I saw him so again they'll be expecting more I think.

It was still an impressive night for him, just for the speed he showed. To me the stand-out rider of the meeting. It shows he's capable and it's consistency, the perennial rider challenge, that eludes him. It will be elsewhere that Leicester fall down I think, unless there's a surprise signing.

Don't think Dudek would be any good in the UK. Pawlicki mk2 without the overtaking ability.

If you were there you'd have seen. Was 10mph fastest than anyone else in clear air.

I think they mean 8 points each meeting not every two 😄

No but Lindgren was only signed late on, this time you'll have Tobi from the off so I think that makes for a better prospect at the start of the season than this year.

He was fantastic at Foxhall at one of the meetings last year so Leicester will be hoping he can more like that every meeting and if he can they should be ok to mix it.

A great team to start the season - I just hope we don't have too many one-sided meetings to watch.

2024 was a good year then as I think they only lost three times at home and only once by more than 8 points, I'd say they were competitive. Away from home many sides struggled at times but Lynn have never been that great on their travels as far as I remember.

They should also try to convince Doyle to be the team captain, he is inspirational.

I suppose that depends on whether you want to watch live speedway or only watch it if you win. I much prefer to see good racing, whoever wins rather than boring victories but I know others think differently. I've seen some good meeting where my team has lost sometimes by quite a margin.

He gets criticism in my view because people think he doesn't do well in pressure situations when we need it. Whether that's fair or not is for you to decide but an example would have been the play-off semi at Leicester where he fell twice on his own, at least once was when on a 5-1 which turned over quite a lot of points, where team riding or being sensible with his partner was the obvious choice. I think taking the captaincy off him would see him improve his performances.

He also intimated at the speedway show that Brennan was leaving Brum but Lord Tolley said "are you sure about that?"

The NFL draft pick system works very well and it's not always the same teams near the top at the end of the season so I think that's a great idea, not just about who has the biggest wallet.
