Glasgow Tigers 2024

That looks a long tail , but I suppose every team will have that with the 38 points limit . 

I have to say , the watered down league doesn't inspire excitement . Can't see me spending fortunes next season going to away meetings . But at least we'll still have Bomber to enjoy watching at Ashfield .

At least you will see some decent action at Ashfield.This watering down does nothing for my enthusiasm for the sport.BSN will probably be where I see most of my speedway.Too expensive to travel these days.

He was always going to drop the Championship and the reason Poole made the call to swap with Lawson, who will be riding it until he retires.

Not convinced by the wisdom of going with such a powerful top two but the other five can all improve their averages IMO, even Complin.

But didn't we say this about Oxford this season though and they were top for most of it. Need other teams to compare it to.

All 7 would barring Pearson maybe if in main body. Get Starkey on some good machinery easily add a point, worrall is an 8.5/9 man in this reduced league imo, bombers got far less top riders to bother him should add about half a point. Lee and ace should be looking towards 5s imo and Leon change of scenery might kick him on to genuine heat leader. 

Hard to judge until we know all the teams.. myself I wouldn't have taken up nearly 24 points for the top 3 but what will be will be

Tough to know what to make of that team, yes it looks weak, but all teams will probably end up looking weak. 

I will point out that Brennan & Vissing could've fitted in that team as heat leaders, so while many blame the points limit for Glasgow dropping so many riders, the truth is they dropped more than they needed to.

If Ace could take the bulk Lee needs to lose, the two would both be set fair.

How many years do you need to get Starkey on good machinery.
