I posted the exact same team myself before, although I'm not so sure about Nick now. Is he on a false average or is he at his level now?

This team is a logical Swindon side for next year though, particularly if Toby decides nor to ride UK and the "One over 8" rule is still in place.

A lot of pressure on Jensen though being one of the top 2. They need to try and have him as third HL if they can imo.

Good luck to any team that can build a side with the 3rd heat leader on an average of nearly 8!! :o

I'd be surprised if Jensen starts anywhere in the PL with that figure round his neck

You have seen him ride?  He is well worth that and improve on it too.

Have seen him a number of times over the last few years and he has impressed at Foxhall a couple of times even before this year

2019 was certainly a breakthrough season for him but it would take some effort to maintain that let alone improve further

It is one of the problems needing to have a points limit that riders making such a rapid improvement become a big risk the following year

If speedway is going to be on Eurosport next season I do hope they don’t use Ermolenko for commentary!  Probably the worst commentator ever IMHO

The first Speedway match to come with subtitles.

A big fat ''NO'' to Ricky Wells for me. He can't ride the Abbey.

 

He just needs practice. 

He’s had a bad year but he’s an experienced rider and should return to form with the right attitude and support.

He’s good value compared to other CL riders. His CL average is 7.05, which gives a converted PL average on a 1.6 rate of 4.40, but, because of his poor PL season, he has an actual PL average of 3.66.

If the BSPA don't agree to Russel's proposal, so that all teams build up to Swindon's average, then one of Doyle/Batch will have to go. Personally if we have to make 2/3 changes, then I would seriously look at Kyle Newman for next season. He looked mustard in his last appearance at the Abbey, obviously loved the new track.

I'd rather have Llandrindrod Wells or Tunbridge Wells than Ricky.
