Race for the top 4


Recommended Posts

Good to see in the Speedway Star, top 2 biggest away wins this season have been by Swindon at Poole and Ipswich, 53-37. Surprising as the Robins have just ended a 17 match run of away league defeats.

Poole strengthened a bit there with THJ. Ipswich strengthened with NKI. 

BV sit idle and do absolutely nothing. Berge a no show yesterday. He should be gone and we should be sourcing a replacement.

Ipswich strengthened and weakened, still can't see them beating Swindon and probably not Poole aswell.

Who do you suggest to replace Berge?

Think it’s usually fair to say where are these riders to make a change? However Iversen and THJ have both proven us all wrong!

It's a bit of a quandary. We must win at Peterborough to have a chance of getting into the play offs. Berge does well at two tracks, the NSS and Peterborough. When we won there in July Berge got 9 paid 12 from 6 rides.

Do we keep him to gives us our best chance of making the play offs or, do we replace him now but risk the win at Peterborough on the basis that if we do win without him we hopefully have a better rider for the play offs? I can't come up with anyone who would fit who makes me think that sacking him now is our best option.

It's the 4 point riders not really available and not going to tempt a rider not riding over here to bring over equipment for possibly 1 meeting.

Agree, the ones who are probably likely to score more than their average are scarce indeed.

THJ is not better than Worrall not these days, no chance are Poole stronger, only change cause Worrall injured and r/r is not working for them now as too many of their team are out of form.

I’d agree. THJ should score some points in reserve, so would Worrall if he was in that position. 

No way is he better these days, not for many days now.

Dont see any hope for Ipswich at Poole, it's as good as in BVs hands now. Take all the points at Peterboro and we are in, even if Ipswich beat Swindon at home.

Massive door opened for both BV and Wolves tonight.

Will we both take it?
