It seems he continually gets rewarded for failure. Expand Technically you are correct, but currently not all teams are complete. Plymouth and Mildenhall have each got a gap after a rider withdrew. Edited: And I forgot Armadale - although the locals are expecting William Lawson to be the final rider.

Expand 100%. If there was a chance then it was worth pursuing... And, (whisper it gently).. It is only UK Speedway after all, therefore there isn't too much riding on it (pardon the pun). There won't be any wider media national recognition of success, nor will there be big financial rewards for any winners, And you cannot get relegated... And the worst they can finish is sixth, meaning only two places outside the play offs, so conceivably for most of the season they will still be there or thereabouts, meaning some interest will be maintained.. And the NSS provides great racing so, even if they have a few defeats they will still be worth watching. Crowds at the old place held up very well considering the extremely poor teams the Aces had for a fair few years, (with many consecutively), and the racing was nowhere near the level of the new place. And in Max Fricke they have a GP rider returning so that will add a few to the gate, as well as providing some real entertainment given his talent.. Jake Allen too is usually worth watching, so all in all the entertainment on view at the NSS will still be amongst the very best (if not THE best), that you will find in the UK and even wider afield... Best of luck to the Aces this season, win lose or draw... Oh hang on. You cant draw any more can you?

mikebv Posted March 25, 2022 Report Share Posted March 25, 2022 Dan riding in Poland today, very good field assembled too... Good to see him get invited to this level of events, (even if only because 3 Russians were not permitted from being there), as it can only be good for him going forward..

Expand Think belle vue will be alright they have Brennan and I believe Blodorn is good enough to get a 6+ average as well as Allen Kurtz is injury free this season so should kick on, Fricke will be among the highest average in the league On paper it's not the strongest side but racing isn't done on paper It's like people asking why the witches built below the limit, they got the riders they wanted who they think can improve considerably 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
