Danny Connor Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 Look at the names though Teresa . It’s awesome to have a team with riders we love. There is no mentions of riders from elsewhere other than Ellis. I’d have all 7 plus Kerr and Kasper too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 Anyone would touch Iversen? He has GP's, he'll turn up even less often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on race nights and how much common sense is applied when compiling the fixture list (usually little). He will be on an attractive average.

This years team was obviously built with the expectancy of Thursday night racing which then changed late in the day. Riders will need to be signed based on their availability for 2019. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the Championship clubs will get together sooner rather than later and let us know which days and which riders we'll be using in the Premiership next season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AND make decisions based on " the bigger picture" so that an upswing in the fortunes of UK speedway can begin. Wonderful though it is ( and it is for me ) Tai Woffinden as a Triple World Champion is not going to put bums on seats at tracks all over the country. We have to improve the product, enhance the excitement it offers AND let the world know where we are, in the biggest way the promoters can afford.

That might entail Buster asking Andy Meredith for advice on how to prepare a track to provide entertaining racing. I can't see it happening though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to improve the product, enhance the excitement it offers AND let the world know where we are, in the biggest way the promoters can afford. I'm beginning to wonder if the light has started to dawn on the speedway authorities at long last, 'cos I've just come across this on a lesser visited forum on this site: THE PATHFINDER REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS 2018". The report has the feel about it that suggests it may have been commissioned by someone with authority within speedway. It identifies all the major challenges facing the sport in the UK, contains a detailed analysis of speedway's current assets, and makes recommendations as to the way forward in 2019 (which all look eminently do-able.) It makes some astute observations about where UK speedway is letting itself down as a marketable product and gives some really practical signposts as to how it might improve its marketing potential. Overall it contains some radical and controversial suggestions but my view is that it reads like a breath of fresh air. If someone in the higher echelons has really started to think along these lines then our sport may yet even manage to drag itself into the 21st century. One thing's for certain: if the powers-that-be stick to the 2018 formula in 2019 (as some have suggested), we are all down the pan. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tellboy Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 Lambert,Iversen,Riss,MPT i would have back,all depends on averages of course. Even though Iversen has had a poor season you can't let him leave on such a low average. S.Lambert too hasn't let the side down or himself but unsure whether he could sustain that level for a season. Regarding Jorgensen and Proctor,they have both had a good season but as per normal you are going to have to get get rid of 2-3 riders.That's the reason i have gone for the 4 i have,they represent the best value for the club imo.

Agree, but you might have to lose MPT too as Kerr is a cert for 2019. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
