I did expect you would (and others) have mentioned it, but haven't paid much attention this off-season

Apart from the rackets, in what way is it 'entirely different'? Curious as there doesn't seem to be much information available...

More than likely. Then Wells will really struggle. Such riders will be desperate not to go higher in the team!

Yes, it will to an extent. The main issue would be the season end averages. You could end up with such a rider on the same average as a top line rider.

Racing is and was not much different from that of years ago. Racing back in the early 90's was a HELL of a lot more strung out than it is now for example.

Not read through the thread, so not sure if it has been mentioned.. but. If the heat leaders are going to be against each other even more often than now, it will mean their averages will drop. If the second strings are going to be racing against the NL riders etc, their averages are going to rise quite a bit. It could make a very strange set of figures... and for smart clubs, perhaps opportunities to exploit?

There are going to be some very strange averages come the end of the season, with the top riders racing each other more often there averages will come down further... while the 4th and 5th riders averages will boom....

You also have the option of not taking out a loan through Wonga...

Just like last years then

Latest ban over I see. Sadly nothing to add to the thread other than abuse once again.

Correct. Piotr Pawlicki and Ricky Wells complete the team.

Would be decent.

Clearly you don't understand the concept of a 'year'.

Starman abusing his beloved promoter! Amazing!

Therein lies the issue Vince to an extent. Folk won't invest in the sport, because it's a closed shop. If anyone tries to strive for change they are quickly alienated and eventually driven out.

Well, it depends which one shows up... 5 weeks out of 6 he wouldn't beat much, in the 6th week he'd beat most and score double figures. Wouldn't want him in a 1-5 though. He was an option last year as a reserve, not this.

We don't know that. As Bagpuss has highlighted, the tac ride would have given Glasgow extra impetus and more to go for. This in turn can lead to better racing. A team giving up early on is awful.

Neither will any other rider we have to go with Adam though (if we take that route).

Skornicki + Kennett I think takes us 0.12 over the limit. Although not a big fan of his I would have taken that.

Not been paying a great deal of attention And I'm 5 weeks behind on speedway stars lol Thanks to those for the update!

Has Hans Andersen signed anywhere yet? Does he fit in with someone like Pontus?

We'll go with the Emil/Sam combo Sort it out TNT

Don't forget Nascar has a nigh on 40 race season (a few less, not sure of exact number).. from which with 10 races to go they reset everything and only the top 10 drivers (and others within a certain amount of pts) can win the Championship. The other 30 odd drivers are all still in the race, but can't win.

Nobody ever confirmed it.

That's because they haven't got a point. They were wrong, its not up for debate!
