Woz01 Posted September 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2018 And Kent not Coventry.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islander15 Posted September 25, 2018 Report Share Posted September 25, 2018 (edited) Powell at reserve makes Eastbourne look even stronger. Whereas Halder dropping to reserve makes Coventry look a little weaker. Edited September 25, 2018 by Islander15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurnTwo Posted September 25, 2018 Report Share Posted September 25, 2018 Especially if they decide to run RR for Spiller who probably has never seen Leicester in which powell brooks and Edwards can all take rides generating about 6 points from number 2 as well as powell taking one of brooks rides? Unless a disaster happens it’ll be mildy Eastbourne in play off KO cup finals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won well in the league meeting and the KOC could easily been a 8 point win if Mountain wasn't excluded in heat 13. However there is no doubt we are the underdogs.

cityrebel Posted September 25, 2018 Report Share Posted September 25, 2018 Barring a major upset, it's gonna be Mildenhall 3 times at Arlington in the last month of the season. It's getting a Lakeside v Peterborough feel about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's getting a Lakeside v Peterborough feel about it. At least Eastbourne & Mildenhall are probably the best two teams in the league and deserve finals. Other than the randomness of Lakeside & Peterborough as you’ve said just pushing back meetings and then ending up cramming them all back to back.

Alternative rumour is that Leicester are going to run their own NL team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurnTwo Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 Leicester would have a pretty good team in Clegg, Thompson twins, palin, Mountain that’s 26 points and only 2 riders needed.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flagrag Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 TurnTwo- Wrong Jordan if I was to have a bet. a lot will depend on the final decisions on the NL formation for 2019 and also what happens to the Leicester Lions league choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurnTwo Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 If the limit is 30 then I will not be going to watch speedway next season at any level as I do not like the two higher leagues and I do not wish to spend £13 watching a glorified mdl 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The strong implications are Brum,easty Kent,Mildy and warriors are stepping up to a larger and slightly weakened second tier, with what was the national league turning into a development league with around 32 point limit and a 6.5 point cap on any rider. All speculation, but for once it's clubs and promoters speculating, rather then some no it all fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProudtobeaBrummie Posted September 27, 2018 Report Share Posted September 27, 2018 oh come on a 32 point limit and a 6.5 point gap is just madness surely it would put alot of riders out of work as we know the gap is between tier 2 and 3 is huge it would just be bigger with many falling into the huge void between the 2 leagues.
