Are you talking about Anton Karlsson the golfer because the speedway rider has been a revelation in the Swedish league. 

Forgive me if I'm wrong but Anton Karlsson finished the 2022 season in Sweden with a 0.972 average per run.

That is behind the likes of Peter Ljung (1.333), Joel Andersson (1.235), Ludvig Lindgren (1.170), Casper Henriksson!! (1.036 - Definitely the Swedish prospect you want to go for imo) and finishing JUST ahead of Daniel Henderson and the Grahn brothers

He's been alright don't get me wrong, and he has a big future, but straight in the main body of a Championship team on a 5.00 average, riding the cr@p tracks we have in this country (not much worse than the Swedish ones I know) isn't exactly filling me with confidence. Tbh, I think he'd rather stay in Sweden and ride for Czestochowa u-24s again

I like Anton, looks like a decent rider, but not yet... Unless the Championship is much weaker next year

That's a pretty weak team with Aarnio the number 3 rider imo. Why not Kye Thomson as your number 3 and someone new like Kevin Juhl Pedersen or Anton Karlsson on 5 point averages as your 2 and 4?

That was last years team and their finishing averages. The team I suggested was......

Ryan Douglas, Jake Allen, Simon Lambert, Zaine Kennedy, Connor Mountin, Adam Roynan and either Palin/kasper Andersen would fit under 38points.

Leicester Lions B

1. Ryan Douglas

2. Simon Lambert/James Wright

3. Connor Mountain

4. Dan Thompson

5. Kyle Howarth

6. Zaine Kennedy

7. Joe Thompson

Based on a 39 point limit with rising stars or 41 point limit without

Considering neither of the Thompsons go particularly well around Scunny I’m not sure about this team

I really liked tero them few seasons he rode from the diamonds, real trier always giving 100%... what has happened? Did he just find a purple patch for us or what?

Tero is very good when he wants to be which is mainly at home if he turns up . Away he's dire and not worth the points used on his average personally wouldn't waste them on him and as we know it's a numbers game

What would Jorgensen come in on? Can see him wanting to do Championship again for you lot? 

I thought the same however with his prem average being 6.35x1.6 it means his average would be 10.16 if I’ve worked it out right ? Please don’t shoot me down in flames if I’m wrong !
