Predict The Final 2016 Pl Table!?


Recommended Posts

I'm going to reserve my prediction for when all 13 teams are complete.

 

At the moment, Glasgow, Workington, Scunthorpe and Sheffield seem to have the most room for improvement within the averages of their seven riders. We'll see what Edinburgh and Newcastle look like when we have a full 1-7.

 

All the best

Rob

They have four of last seasons team and finished 16pts off the playoffs,lambert is good but will he see the season out is debatable just cant see where the improvement from last season is going to come from we all see our teams through rose tinted specs but i,m just posting my opinions

your right, we still have 4 from last season,,, but the way I see it is that,,,

we have swapped Lewis Kerr for Lambert,,,

who ever comes in last replaces Rosen,,,

giving us a better 6 man team than we had last season,,,

I can only see improvement from Worrall and Lambert,,, Lightning, Aarnio and ??? to maintain their averages,,, hopefully Rose will deliver at last, and the #7 being the deciding factor :)

can't see us romping the league, but hit form at the right time and be relatively injury free, and we could be onto something ;)

I think tis could be the season for the teams with a team in depth, a solid 1 to 6 and a strong No7. It's why i see Berwick mid table on paper, but on track may surprise a few, there are a few other teams the same. The teams with a strong top 4 and a weak bottom end of 3 riders may under perform. I suppose we will all find out from March onwards.

Precisely why it is a total waste of time trying to predict at this stage.

We get these threads every winter and they're just a bit of fun to pass the time.

 

For those that seem to be a bit miffed that some are writing their teams off, I honestly wouldn't worry!

 

One thing I've learned on here over the years, are that the vast majority of people's predictions are atrocious!

Personally, imo on paper I think that Workington, Glasgow and Ipswich are looking the stronger sides.

 

Somerset may not look good at the moment with assessed riders but if BWDs average drops, they could drop a current rider and bring in another heat leader possibly down the line.

 

Being a Workington fan I think that this is one of the best compiled teams they have put together, but only time will tell and we can only speculate on past seasons and no one knows what the riders are like until the first few meetings are done and dusted.

Me too, Rob.

 

I must admit I am surprised that Scunny are being tipped for the wooden spoon or near it. I think that's a good team.

Think Rye House have a decent side, will always have good reserve and have the strongest number 7, Workington, Glasgow and Newcastle look the best whilst Edinburgh always put together a good side. Scunthorpe, Redcar and Somerset look average and Ipswich look no better than mid table IMO

You didn't have the benefit of an East of Scotland education Gazc.

 

There are 13 teams in the league.

Changed that for you it's never been my favourite number alway's good to see good blue noses pointing out an error, one that i very rarely make i hasten to add.
