You might or might now know that each season I produce My Top 2O Riders lists which are based on their most recent results. I have simply applied their previous season's efforts to see how they might continue into 2023. I know that some will improve but based on how they finished up my 2023 prediction is based on this.

Bit boring not to discuss it further though on a discussion forum? I'd disagree with BarrowBoy, for example Oxford have far too long a tail to be finishing anywhere near third if in the Play Offs at all, and Redcar have strength all the way through so they will be top two or three IMO. Glasgow top as long as Ace Pjiper is OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are to believe the current bunch of “promoters”, none make an operating profit … they just throw their money in as some sort of hobby, and then whinge at the lack of support from fans. Why would the Dugard family ( who are very successful businessmen) want to be involved in such a poor and high risk investment as renting out their stadium for speedway ? Never blessed with good crowds in recent years…. I would guess that the late Bob Dugard personally kept the speedway going with his £££.. That era is now over. Reading the SS this week Len Silver reckons 250k will be needed to revive Sittingbourne Central Park … a figure which must apply to restarting Eastbourne ( and any other hopeful venues) so DREAM ON folks …….. 9 minutes ago, old bob at herne bay said: Don’t know how anyone could put a positive spin on “ the stadium is no longer available for speedway.” ? Unless Elon Musk takes an interest in buying the entire site from Eric for e cars and likes speedway enough to retain the stadium it ain’t gonna happen. 3 hours ago, old bob at herne bay said: Poole to win everything again is my prediction.

No judgement from me but most people have put Redcar top, I'd love to know the reasoning why you have put them 6th? Tbh it doesn't matter where teams finish in the top 6 (apart from 1st). Wether Redcar finished 2nd or 6th would still mean waiting to see which teams the "winners" pick? In theory teams should either be aiming for 1st or "top 6" Edited March 17, 2023 by szkocjasid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aries Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 Redcar still the pick for me as well. Look the standout side with very few weaknesses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coraldon Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 I like that Redcar are touted to be winners by a lot of other teams supporters, BUT we all know that incidents throughout the season, injuries, team changes, amongst others will affect the results, I hope that all riders have a injury free season and we will see who will be Champions in December!!!!!!!???? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't win every year! But we have won it three times in a row before, so you never know I suppose. Obviously I would love Poole to win every year but good for the league if someone else did. Also I'm afraid we will get banished to the Prem if we win it again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
