1. Redcar - strong top 5 especially the top 3, if the reserves show improvement they definitely look strong.

2. Leicester - very strong top 5 but I don't think the reserves are the strongest

3. Eastbourne - will be strong at home and will take some points away from home.

4. Somerset - bit of bias but the side is better than people think with improvement in there.

5. Poole - top 3 is good but with 2 new Aussies who will take time to adjust and imo not the strongest engine room they just miss out.

6. Glasgow - Cook is the strongest in the league but Wells/Ostergaard/Sedgmen isn't a great top end, improvement from the lower end but not enough.

7. Birmingham - stronger than last season but still not enough to challenge for play offs.

8. Scunthorpe - hit by the sad loss to Danny Ayres {R.I.P} solid depth but I don't think strong enough.

9. Edinburgh - two new riders in the main body and I don't see a lot of improvement at reserve.

10. Berwick - Doolan leaves a big gap imo. I hope the reserves do well but big shoes to fill.

11. Kent - an ok side but not as strong as other sides

12. Newcastle - at least they have speedway this season but all in all a poor side

Underestimating Glasgow lower end,Nicol,Bailey& Jensen will be strong Imo.;)

Agree with your comment "Fromafar" Glasgow's bottom end is stronger than last year, technically replacing Bickley with Nicol, but at the top far weaker replacing Jensen with Wells!

Jensen started the season on a 6 + average and he kicked on big time, Ricky Wells had a bad season last year and I am sure he will do well this season, he is under less pressure not being no 1

Technically your are replacing Bickley with Sam Jensen at reserve.Thats a big difference .IMO .Nicol is replacing the No 2  or 4 slot.Wells had a bad season for various reasons still managed a decent average though ,can see him as a good signing.

But Jensen was in the same team as Bickley last season so can't be "replacing" him in the team is how I see it!

While they were in the same Team ,Sam Jensen rode at No 4 in all his matches Bickley never got out of reserve ,Nicol has a higher average than both of them so will have to ride at 2 or 4. Jensen is replacing Bickley at reserve is my point.On what I saw last season that is a big +.

Reading Jason Pipe's comments on Newcastle's team he thinks Claus Vissing can put a point and a half on his 8.43 ave and James Wright can put at least 3 points on his 4.00 ave!

Diamonds could challenge for play-offs of those predictions come true! :D:lol:

So basically he thinks Vissing is going to top the Championship averages come the end of the season

1. Scunthorpe 

2. Birmingham 

3. Leicester

4. Glasgow

5. Edinburgh 

6. Eastbourne 

7. Poole

8. Redcar

9. Kent

10. Berwick 

11. Somerset

12. Newcastle

You know that sentence makes no sense! If ' i know nothing' then I must know something! :party:

Maybe next time use ' I don't know anything'.

 

“You know nothing” means you know something?

Howdya work that out, Lisa?  :)
