Once Anders gets that rod out of his back and regains his confidence he'll be knocking around a 7 point average. Top bloke

A point? More like two

Don't know Barker personally, but he's box office. I'd have him at Rye like a shot

Do you have the play list?

Don't think the young Brummie kid is "foreign"

Jorgensen a number one? Decent second string, that's all. Berwicks number one by accident rather than design this year

The whole thing needs a revamp. Can't just cater for sixty-something's who wanna be reminded of the "good days"

Probably not, but if he was considering a move he'd surely not say anything

Kennett was pretty hacked off having to carry the team for most of the season. I Wouldn't blame him if he wanted a move, but now the new promoters are fully in charge he may want to see what their team building plans are. At the end of season meeting, after collecting his Mr Rocket award, he said he wanted to return

Don't know where this Kennett to Ipswich story came from. A vivid imagination I'd say

What helps is signing a rider who under performed alarmingly in 2014, then puts two points on his average the following year.

Steve Boxall was Silvers favourite, he was never gonna be dropped

That's pretty much how I remember it.He attempted to explain that he couldn't keep Doyle due to averages, but nobody believed a word of it. After a lot of disgruntled supporters took to social media and this forum to voice their disapproval, Silver used the local newspaper to verbally attack certain Rye House fans (me included). I still have the cutting... A PR disaster

Pleased to report the proper fish was back this year

Have to agree with Chris. Those who attended the Pair Of Aces meeting would've seen the healthy crowd for a nothing meeting. With an exciting winning side, the right promotion and a more up to date meeting presentation I'm sure the fans will return.

Can't believe it was a spur of the moment decision, he must've planned this weeks if not months ago. Very odd

Must be taking advice from someone surely?

It's not the fact he's gone, it's the new promotion being new to speedway that's worrying some people.

Ben Barker, really?

Len Silver reminds me a little of Arsene Wenger. Both had early success, but not much to speak of in recent years. Both very strong minded, some may say arrogant. Both like Marmite, either love em or hate em

Not sure how to feel to be honest. Len was a safe hand on the tiller, but the club was going backwards. I hope the new promoters know what they're doing

News filtering through that Len Silver has ended his association with Rye House

They changed their minds half way through the season in 2006

That's how I understood it. Seems strange to have reserve races 2 heats apart

Nope
