Many have rumoured the same regards Pedersen but has yet to be confirmed that is the case.

Although Pedersen isn't in the GP's he is in the SEC, attempting to requalify for the GP's and doing Germany so should be just as busy as Iversen. 

 

Pedersen won't be doing a full season. He will be gone by may.

Kenneth Bjerre is going to be a man in demand.

Really not sure what I make of this lot. Lack of heat wins would be my guess 

Great side. This league is awfully weak.

BV - Kurtz already proven he hasn't got the bottle to ride at No.1 & Kildemand is overrated he's back in the UK because he has failed abroad.

Ipswich - Klindt probably at No.1

Sheffield - Pedersen commitment issues maybe? Was awful the last time he rode in Britain as well. 

Wolves - Masters & Thorssell have never set the world alight.

Absolutely dreadful team.

I'm pretty sure though Phil that it's more than guesswork on your part.

Probably not a million miles away from the finished team

Apart from Swindon, the rest of us will all be pretty close team strength wise

Even Swindon are close tbh. Yes it's a power packed top 4 but the tail end it's awfully weak. Which will level things out tbh.

Stewart, Perks & Rowe wont do anything away from home so the HL scores only levels things out imo.

Swindon will finish meetings off well though in heats 12 13 14 and 15

If Phil The Ace is right and I hope he is tbh then I think we have a team that's capable of challenging. 

Don't forget anyone who rides poorly on the night can be replaced by a rider of the same or even better standard. 

Solid teams where all riders are capable of scoring 6 points a night minimum which would mean a league point out of every single meeting.

Utter codswallop.. that team will be the finish of The Panthers. After three early season home defeats there won't be anybody paying to watch. Have another look at Sheffield, Belle Vue and Swindon sides chap.

Why do the management persist with the notion that just because the track is fast its good. A few years ago Peter Karlsson said The Showground was one of, if not the best track in the world. It seemed to me that if you got out of the gate last year you won, with a few exceptions. Buster can do it, the track he did for the World Team Cup that year was really really good... has anybody kept the program because I'm sure the times weren't that fast.

Whilst I'm moaning... who's in charge of the marketing? On the day its announced that last year's best rider has signed for Belle Vue we announce MPT! Who thought that was going to encourage some decent sponsorship or help sell some season tickets? Although has season ticket pricing been advertised? People like to buy each other presents this time of year don't they?

What confuses me is, if you're going to spend all that money on buying the club and then why not invest in riders to make it a success? The business model is bound to fail.

I said that throughout the whole of last season, the better races were when the times were slower.  Did we break the track record 2 times last year or was it more? Fricke (57.9) and King (57.4) definitely did. The better races round the showground are when its 59+.
