Bagpuss Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 There are going to be some BIG home wins with that team. Good side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 Decent side which is very unlikely to be troubled at home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 Ok must be in the Minority obviously, but that wouldnt make the top 4 for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grachan Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 How ridiculous, though, that Lakeside in the Second Division can have Morris on a lower average than top division Swindon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E I Addio Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 So who gets reduction in team as it comes to 42.88 The rules haven't been published yet so nobody, except the promoters know for sure how the averages will be calculated. I stand to be corrected, as I can't remember the actual wording but I think at least one, possibly two of the young Brits will get 2.5% reduction. Good team though. Not sure if it will set the world alight on the road but capable of picking up points here and there with a fortress at home. Solid top two in Lawson and Morris, and decent reserves, with Zak, Ben and Max probably swapping all swapping places at reserve at various times. Best thing for me, after last years disaster, is that in heat two we won't be pencilling in 1-5 against before the tapes even go up, in fact there should be quite a few occasions where the resrves carry the match. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has only been 4 teams released in full so far..hence my comment. They will do well at home though on such a trick track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryce Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 I'm sure we'll be strong at home as is normal, but with that team we might actually get some points on the road. Looking forward to a good season now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will do well at home though on such a trick track Ah the old 'trick track' thing! Anyone would think the home riders left thumb tacks in their slip stream or that there were pot holes that only few know about! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marko Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 Very promising team indeed, didn’t consider Max Clegg but his addition allows Zach to start at reserve is massive. Jon Cook has been extremely shrewd with this set up, good heat leaders, very capable number four and three younger riders who are likely to benefit from spells at reserve during the season. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueherb777 Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 Looks a really decent team to me. Seems strange they have Morris who is No 1 for so called TOP? League Swindon. Suppose we are just getting nearer and nearer the two Leagues joining up. Anyway,well done Lakeside for showing ambition and not hanging around the NL.

HAMMER180 Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 great team over all surely must be challenging for some silverware my only concern is adam ellis as lets hope he can max out at home like he did when visiting with other teams because before he was ride one fall off one while leading a lot of the time and he did that for Swindon if I remember right at the televised match. really looking forward to the start of the season and lets hope we can get more than the 12/13 guaranteed home meetings league and cups COYH.

It has to be someone on a very different average to what posters on here believe. A 2.5% reduction does not amount to very much and this team appears to be, on the face of it, well over the 42.5 limit. I can only think Zach has come in on an old CL average. However, we will have to wait and see. Shame to SpeedwayGB website doesn't put an average against the 2018 team building names etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allthegearbutnaeidea Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 If its a 1.3 conversion I makie the team total 43.3 and I dont think any of them are due reductions apart from possibly Zach, so either theyve changed the reduction rules, the conversion isnf 1.3 or they are possibly using Ellis, Morley and Zachs old PL averages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffster Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 Cracking team ! Would also hope that, riding at the Arena Essex raceway every week, Morris, Ellis and Waj will be pretty decent at Wolverhampton when Swindon are at Monmore Green.
