It's actually a difficult choice after Swindon finishing top with the current line up's. Below is a current line-up list and I've added a second list of predicted finishing positions after potential changes for injuries / sackings are considered. 

 

1. Swindon

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Wolves

3. Sheffield, King's Lynn, Belle Vue

4. Sheffield, King's Lynn, Belle Vue

5. Sheffield, King's Lynn, Belle Vue

6. Peterborough, Ipswich

7. Peterborough, Ipswich

 

___________________________________

1. Swindon (always manage to find someone)

2. Wolves (like Swindon, 8/10 times find replacements) 

3. Belle Vue (as above) 

4. Ipswich (Louis will not allow Ipswich to finish bottom) 

5. Sheffield (after the layout for Pedersen and Holder, any replacements will be bargain basement) 

6. King's Lynn (Buster holds the purse strings, the excuses of nothing other than poor, low budget options will be available at the time) 

7. Peterborough (see King's Lynn)

Swindon to win the play off final vs Wolves 

I think your top two will be the bottom two but it all depends on what changes are made as the season goes on.

The predictions aren't what make me smile, it's the "Ifs and buts" people put along side them.

I'm reminded of a saying my old boss used to say, "If my auntie had b*lls, she'd be my uncle".

 

I think I'll keep my coat on this time :D

Swindon with a very strong top 4

But if you look at it they have replaced Musi and Vissing ( i would say good for 12 points a meeting) with Stewart and Rowe (7 points a meeting in my opinion) so are definitely weaker.

Us at Ipswich have (if believed) Holder for Iversen.........Klindt for Harris........Covatti for Lawson.........Ayres for Sarjeant..........i believe we are stronger

Wolves have simply replaced Howarth with Nicol............if Becker keeps improving they will be in contention

Belle Vue have strength in depth but a lot will depend on their underperforming top 2...............

Sheffield look strong on paper but with question marks

Peterborough look better and Kings Lynn average

On that basis i will go

1. Ipswich

2. Wolves

3. Swindon

4. Sheffield 

5. Belle Vue

6. Peterborough

7. Kings Lynn

Just love all the folk putting Panthers bottom with only four declared riders :D

No different to last year with Ipswich, whilst virtually everyone still predicted them bottom prior to the start of the season. And we all know how that ended.

All completed sides are a threat before the season starts. Some more than others.
