Coventry 2016

You missed out Coventry, who have a dreadful side.

As I was responding on a Coventry thread I didn't feel the need to add them as it was already suggested we will be pants in 2016. Luckily for us we can make a quick change if it doesn't go well in the Elite Shield!

They can't fight themselves for the wooden spoon!

Not sure they look good enough to even fight!

However until we see ALL the teams line ups it's hard to assume just who else might struggle. So far Cov and Wolves are the only completed announced side that we can judge.

There will be 3 way above the rest as things stand now.

Possibly , let's see them complete first tho!

Depends on which KK we get. A 2010 on and we'll have the best top 2 in the EL. King and Woryna are the worry for me. The rest im fine with.

At least KK will give you half a season......maybe....;)

Coventry look like they will need to tho, including getting a decent number one.

While Wolves need a number 1 and a number 2! I can't believe a Wolves fan criticizing another teams heat leaders. You haven't got any! Yes you'll almost certainly beat Coventry at second string but our heat leaders will easily beat yours. you have Lindgren whos got worse every season for about 6 years now, Bech who has never hacked it as a heat leader, Kylmakorpi who was only average at best as a heat leader, Thorsell who crapped out riding as a heat leader and Masters who has never been a heat leader. Meanwhile we have a guy who with bonus points has been top 6 in the averages 2 years running and a guy who was World number 2 last year. Our weakness is most certainly not heat leaders but the fact we don't have a 4th rider or a strong reserve, I know this, I have pointed this out a few times.

That's the spirit. Keep telling yourself Coventry have a proper number one. I give it 3 months till he is sacked again. Harris and Garrity the only pluses for Coventry. The rest is awful.

Rather our 1-7 in comparison.

Looking at wolves team, you need more than just a number 1, looking weaker than last year

Lindgren will probably outscore KK, so I'm not concerned.

Lindgren will struggle to out score reserves of he rides like the season just gone 😂

I think Bell Vue will have the best top two followed by Poole

Id prefer KK and Harris over Holder and Buzckowski/Andersen/Watt(?)! Same with Zagar and Cook although if Cook continues to ride like he did in the playoffs then you might have a point!

woryna is the worry

 

king will be ok

King needs to improve his form as a 3rd heatleader, didnt do a great job in the role last year. I will say he has it in him to do the job though!

Coventry and Poole about level. BV definitely have the best top 2 in the league.

 

Edit - unless Swindon keep Zengota then I would say Swindon do.

KK and Harris won the EL pairs in 2010. Since then the EL has been watered down season after season. As a pair I'd say they're easily the best in the league. After Doyle whatever other is better than either? Maybe Zagar but thats border line, nobody has two riders better than them and most won't have 1! Thats this teams one saving grace, a brilliant top two you can rely on for TRs and heat 15s.
