I think the Peterborough guest only scored one and Andersen was injured withdrawn in his first ride, so a terrific Panthers performance.

Your Aces team had Bewley and Kurtz, Brennan, both Worralls and Charles Wright I think - the play off final at the NSS and seeing Scott beat Bewley was great if you weren't an Aces fan 😁

I don't remember it as a weak league year at all. Give them some credit, they rode really well as a team to win.

I don't think it is. The most recent MA is used, that's clear. His most recent MA is from the Championship in 2025. If the most recent MA is one from both leagues, so for example with Chris Harris for this year, his championship average applies in the championship and his premiership average applies in the premiership. To me that's really clear.

I don't see it that way at all. It doesn't matter which league the most recent established MA is in, that's the one which is used for the next time they ride, unless they had one in both leagues in the last season. I guess we'll find out. 😁

No, I disagree. The most recently established MA is his championship one, so that's what will be used, or are you saying he didn't establish an average last season? Official figures are reported as 8.08 for 2025, it doesn't matter what league, unless he got one in both, which he didn't.

But he's not returning to british speedway after a gap. Therefore using the above it seems his converted championship average would be used

Think he lives near Norwich so Ipswich suits him down to the ground - unless there was significantly more money he'd not want to join BV.

I'm not reading the same tea leaves obviously.

No last places boys........ 😁

I agree with the feeling regarding how long they may be in the sport.

There's actually quite a lot of riders who'll soon be hanging up their boots.

Agreed. I'm also not sure how long Mayfield sports will be around.

I don't think that's an issue - why rebel against not being paid by scoring less and thereby earning less when you do get paid. The fact he was riding at No.1 in 2024 and is now down to 5.89 suggests a rider on the downward to me rather then plenty in the tank. What he does have in his favour is that he's not a gating dullard.

Perhaps the signing on night will be rained off, in the interests of speedway?

Mr Coleman is waiting for better weather, as the busking trade is not drawing in enough coin at present.

Maybe they should follow the International format and teams are made up of three riders?

These suggestions all seem very hit and miss in terms of their scoring record - win or last, both likely.

Not really no, would be regularly beaten.

I quite like that, for two reasons.....🤣

What would they be called, the Northampton Nomads?

The rising star is Edwards though.

His future lies in the Championship I think, 'hill of beans' and all that but you can't fault his desire and who knows.

No idea. Just seemed to me they spent big and went poof!

Yep - if it's Mayfield then it has comparisons to Reading and Posselthwaite, look how that ended up.
