Thats even more pressure on Steve and Danny than they had this year, missing a heat-leader imo

I doubt Worrall will be back.

Cant build a title challenging 1-7 when using up 18.02 on 2 riders.

It's borderline Plymouth from this year when including both King & Worrall.

Denmark are running a full fixture list next season so Basso signing for Poole is unlikely at this point.

You can win the title like that, top heavy teams have in the past like Poole 2003 when we had Adams and Rickardsson but you have to get the middle order riders right that are on false averages.

So Oxford back and riding in the championship Wednesday nights, could that affect the Poole crowds, with people coming to Poole from the Southampton area 

Won't stop me travelling to the Pirate Ship from Long Eaton, I shall whizz straight past Oxford when Pirates are at home.

I'm looking forward tho to goin to Sandy Lane as a Pirate! :t:

Bring it On :D

I would say 5 of those riders could put at least a point on their averages! So can easily build a title challenging team with 2 x 9.0 riders!

I hope Basso doesn't leave, he shud see being on board the Pirates Ship as the way to build his craft far quicker and stronger.

Leave Denmark behind, the Pirate Ship is the way to sail!

Now be told! :D

Think he's decided he looks better in stripes :D

Think he has done alright at Poole when we were in the Prem when he was with Wolves a few years back?? Who did he ride for this season?

A real shame they got rid of rising stars. Gave young riders a chance. Now some are left with inflated averages and are going to struggle to get a team place.

Don't really agree, the league is pretty much same strength as last season and the championship has never had issue giving young Brits a chance. Continuing with it in premiership makes sense as that's where opportunities were fewer

Not sure why you'd class them as inflated averages. They earned them in a tough league, which will be of similar standard this year.

Bowtell, Jenkins and Flint already signed up. Thompson's, Palin, Kemp, Edwards, Hume, Thomas all likely to get places easily.

I agree, the "rising stars" in the Prem makes a bigger difference to bringing on Brits imo

This. And a better NDL to help bridge the gap instead of forcing riders that aren't ready to step into the Championship

It's impossible to suggest there is a simple system for picking a league winning team, Glasgow only had one rider above 7 after Ulrich got injured & finished 2nd, whereas Leicester had 4 x 8.00 riders but finished below them!

Berwick always had one strong reserve Flint / Andersen but finished near the bottom, while Edinburgh till Kemp signed always had a reserve who scored very little finished in the top 5!

I think it'll be even harder for any NDL riders looking to step up this year, with a 42 limit I can see lots of strong reserves, so new 2.00 men will find it very tough!
