Premiership League Prediction 2021


Recommended Posts

1. Belle Vue

2. Sheffield 

3. Wolverhampton

4. Ipswich

5. Peterborough

6. King's Lynn 

 

Obviously injuries will be a massive factor, bigger than ever before with the lack of rider's. On paper now, is thos about right??

I’d probably swap Sheffield for Belle Vue although there is very little between them. Top four looks pretty clear cut on paper.

I think there's very little between the top 3. Put Sheffield 2nd purely on the basis of 2 spots to fill. The last reserve spot will be the difference with Belle Vue having Etheridge in there & the fact Bates loves a crash or 2

That looks about how i would give it,although i think the top 3 will be close so they could finish in any order.

I don’t think Belle Vue look at all strong. The way to success is for riders to increase their averages but other than Dan and maybe Jye, who else will?

Sheffield look nailed on for the title but it’s a very expensive team Batchelor, Holder, Ellis, Howarth and, erm, their rising star won’t come cheap. 
 

Wolves need their two Americans to score well if they’re going anywhere. 
 

Peterborough should pick up the “best endeavour” prize. 
 

Kings Lynn have some much rumoured team building problems but Buster will find a way through them. 
 

Which leaves Ipswich. My guess is that, like in 2019, they’ll surprise a few. Crumple has certainly been serious about his racing and Klindt is racing well. Add the experience of King and Heeps and the enthusiasm of Stewart, Rowe and Kemp - especially Rowe, and you have a team that might repeat their 2019 position. 
 

So, my order:

1. Sheffield, 2. Ipswich, 3/4. Belle Vue/Wolves, 5.Kings Lynn 6. Peterborough

Should be top team goes into play off final, with 2nd and 3rd placed teams, to fight it out to join them imho.

To give it some credibility and attainment value you would like to think this would be the plan wouldn't you?

WIth maybe a league winners shield for the No1 team?

I would think though that the No1 team would want a play off final to draw a crowd so the top four may be the outcome..

See I think the Panthers team could go either way, if the likes of Pedersen, Hans and Harris find anything like their form of old they could easily challenge the top 3.   If they prove to be finished and trundling around they'll be rock bottom. The team interests me greatly

The team that tops the table could win the Craven Shield!
