1 valve Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 Well if we go to one race night in 2016 then it will be Wednesday. Like phil said, up to bspa and depends on agm at end of next season Personally don't want Friday. Will make it hard to get a gp rider. What I want is one race night, a sensibly re vamped british speedway with BV at the front of it going to new stadium I just dont see that Elite will run on only one race night as this would limit home meetings to once every two weeks whch could be longer if meetings are rained off. The ecconomics of speedway mean clubs have to run for the most part on the basis of having a home meeting every week otherwise there is insufficient income. Hence why two backto back days are the way forward. My bet will be Thursday and Fridays become the race nights as this wil provide some race nights where a school day does not follow which will enable parents to bring their young ones along.

E I Addio Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 To be honest, we know what to expect for next season, another Aces team that will be good on paper at best and will struggle all season as always and be fighting to avoid the wooden spoon. Maybe 2015, but we haven`t moved on from 2007 at all. Aces won`t sign Fricke if it costs money, as we have a stadium to pay for, so therefore that is more important. The 2016 season will probably be the best season us Aces will have since 2005, as we`ll have a new stadium which will please us and will depend if this new track will entice any top riders and not ones that come to get their average down. So roll on 2016 i say! Zagar, Worrall, Woodward, Kymakorpi, and Lahti then ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B.V 72 Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) If the Elite league is going to be weaker next season how stupid will it be to let Cook go on 6.21 average .Mark my words if we do let him go it will turn round and bite us in the ass.As in my oppinion on that average there is no one better out there to replace him.

I'd have him back. I want same top 5 really with new reserves but unfortunately we don't own cook so if he wants away we can't stop him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want same top 5 really with new reserves but unfortunately we don't own cook so if he wants away we can't stop himI I to would like the same team back but a must is stronger reserves. I must admit if possible (rules permiting) i would swap Frick for Toft.Re Cook as you say if he wants away then there is nothing we can do about it but if we boot him out because he droped his average in a tougth heat leader spot then we are mugs i think he still has a lot of improvement in him and whoever he rides for next year will reep the rewards. ps Phil on a few threads you indicate that Cook may well be with the Lions next year can you share on here what you have heard that makes you think he will ?

When he guested for Leicester he said on the mic that he maybe in need of a change of clubs in EL. With it being at leicester I assume he means leicester So im just guessing mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillipsr Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 Cook has stagnated anyway. I think he realised this year hes not nearly as good as he thought. Shown up in the GP and knocked out early of GP Qualy. Found his level now 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found his level now Will have to differ on this i think he still has some inprovement in him.But if he does go who on a 6 point average do you think that will be a better replacement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Turner Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 I think a change of team might be good for Cook. I think the guy is capable of doing much better than he is now but I think he thought he was better than he was and it's come as a surprise to him. He need's to get his head down and get focused on winning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonButler Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 Thank you for that. I was getting worried; thought my two remaing little grey cells were exiting stage left! Have Wolverhampton changed their name to the Aces? I am sure I saw that this thread was "Aces 2015" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killer Cat from Mars Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 Having read through this thread, I believe everyone has forgot the golden rule of speedway - speedway riders are self employed and therefore when asked about their future, are going to give open ended answers - they are going to say that they like your fans, your track etc and a change may be good! It's just in case they need a change or in case their promoter decides to drop them at short notice. A sensible rider would tell every club in the EL/PL that he loved their track, their fans and has always wanted to ride for them, that way keeping his options open. Having said that, reading all your speculation is still good fun! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noggin Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 To progress further and obtain team places abroad and more success in the big qualifiers and open meetings IMO Cookie needs a bigger and faster home track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B.V 72 Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 (edited) Ok, get the shape right and you'll be onto a winner. (Quote from Belle vue web sight)Approx 350 meters long,the straights will be wide with plenty of room to pass and the turns will be big sweeping bends with the maximum banking allowed by the FIM for an international circuit.
