I thought Dads Army was funny intill i looked at the Wolves side of 2015 . In all my 53 years of going to speedway never have i seen a team so weak .

87 kings Lynn? People complain about sides not building to the limit for next season, that side was built with only one rider on a 6+ average and 8.5 points short of the limit of 45pts (Inc bp).

Injury forced his retirement this year.

At least Howe was a great servant to British Speedway.

No can't dispute that.I wasn't knocking Howie just i remember him suffering from hayfever on a number of occasions and really effecting him and his scores.

Has he retired through an injury or build up of injuries that have forced him to quit do you know

I believe he has had a tough recent few years with injuries and this year was struggling to overcome another.

Plus he has a family to support . His scores and performances in the PL have been reduced the past few years due to injury so sounds like the timing was right.

I believe his main issue was his shoulder hence struggling to hold on.

Still racing to a high level on the grass and longtrack prior to retirement as well.

I think Wolves will do ok at home this year with decent riders. But i can't see too many race winners away from home i'm afraid. Plus they may have the weakest number 7 in the league.

And quite possibly the strongest number 6,regardless wether its Howarth or anybody else that ends up there.

That all depends on which Howarth you get. If the one from the play offs in 2014 then he should clean up. However if he carries on like he rode the end of the season gone then he will struggle to beat most reserves.

He should clean up at reserve. I'm hoping so.

There is no way Kyle will struggle beat most reserves in my opinion. Kyle struggled at Coventry because he was dropped by Swindon in July and didn't get an EL ride till the end of August.

I cant see him being as poor as he was towards the end of the season. He should have the beating of most of the draft riders and will have stints in the top 5 in 2016.

Based on what? He's not as good as Auty, Worrall, Kerr, Wright or Newman in the PL which puts him in the bottom half of the tier 1 reserves ahead of only Bates and whoever Lynn sign. I don't see him cleaning up much!
