Take a 2 pointer at 7 and you can build any team to match what was had in 2022 season?? 1.Josh Pickering 2. Paul Starke 3. Kye Thomson 4.Paco 5.Craig Cook 6.Connor Bailey 7.2 pointer 39.93 I think 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think Bickley is worth a punt? Got to agree with Mr Anderson that Lasse, having had a years experience of the track would be a better bet than Bailey while their away potential is probably about the same although Lasse has had less experience.

Girdy17 Posted November 27, 2022 Report Share Posted November 27, 2022 Picko lasse cook paco kye hook bickley although no sure about that team. for me it fits, but would be pressure on too 3 again if that was the team. This 40 point is a pain in the backside really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Nathan he lives in the deep south and relies on his father to take time off work to ferry him around. Edinburgh is a long long way for home meetings!!

This 40 point is a pain in the backside really. Depends if Kye and Paco can show more consistency especially away from home. They were up and down more than a fiddler’s elbow last season. Can’t think of many meetings where they both clicked in the same match. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Berwick and the alleged Scunthorpe teams known so far, neither look that great but will any this season? It's only 2 points but will have a significant impact imo It was rumoured it was going to be 38 pts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you consider Poole, Leicester and Glasgow are going to drop 4, 5 and 6 points respectively from their final score next year it just shows how much speedway is being diluted. My thoughts are the league winners final average should be the building point for the next season so teams are improving. Maybe we would get some loyalty and riders returning the next year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There would be quite a few riders without a place on averages between 2 & 4. Only way to get loyalty is discount the riders average at the team building stage(10%) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why have Poole got to drop 4 points? They finished on 43 points with any Brits still to get the 2.5% reduction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent enough team apart from the fact that I thought Starke had retired. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
