Agree, have Zengi as a 2nd string will mean less pressure on him to perform away. Havvy and Andersen? No chance! The rest of the side looks competitive enough, maybe someone instead of Bunyan a young Brit maybe? Its the type of side id like to see, a solid top 5 should see us get away points often. I wouldnt be at all surprised if the points limit was reduced to 39-40 points due to financial issues around the sport.

Id like to build a team similar to they way Swindon built their side, a good solid top 5 and 3-4 point reserves. Id possibily have Zengota back but as a 2nd string only.

The crowd will be boosted by Brits hoping to see a British World Champion. A fair few on my Twitter feed are going over.

Luckily for me im about 20 years younger than him! Personally im leaning towards a fresh 1-7, the fans will want something to look forward to and a brand new 1-7 should help that.

Will Leicester be looking at joining the EL next year after they were rejected a place in 2013?

Yep they are in talks to move back to the Alan Higgs Centre so they will not need an academy. Brandon seems less and less likely an option for Sisu now they are rumoured at looking at four sites.

Far more technology in cycling and sailing and obviously Show Jumping relies heavily on the quality of the horse. Looking at it that way i dont see why speedway cant be an Olympic sport but motorsport is generally a no no.

That would still happen no matter what the league structure would be but a team having Tai in it can easily still mean lowering costs. Wolves for example would have Tai but not Freddie, cost lowered.

In a way if Bomber manages to get into the top 3 he sort of deserves it doesnt he? Why are people having a pop at Harris its not his fault he has been asked to ride and he would be mad to turn it down The first sentence was a joke.

I dont think anyone is saying get rid of Tai, as he is British he SHOULD ride in Britain.

Just two bigger leagues next year is they way to go if possible. Face each side home and away once and have the KOC.

Its Robert Miskowiak.

Riding different nights though that could make a difference. If it is Ljung i might have Wolves down as favourites.

Peter Ljung?

A simple squad system would help reduce guests. 10 riders in a squad pick 7 riders who are available for the fixture and use a riders starting average to make up to the limit. Sometimes a team may be weaker but at least its riders contracted to that particular club. Riders can still ride PL if they choose to. May need R/R occasionally but guests would be rare!

Crowds have been decent this season considering the season we have had. I would say crowds are usually around the 2,000 mark but the Poole match was 3,000+. As mentioned above Horton has done a lot to promote the club and the advert before movies at the cinema is a brilliant idea. We just have to get a decent team together for 2014!

I read that Lambert was beating the likes of Smolinski, Schlein and others in Germany LAST year at 14. Hopefully i can get to Brandon to watch him ride tomorrow night.

Rumoured to be over 1,000 tickets sold but its claimed it includes FREE tickets to kids in Northampton. Desperate to get a crowd in! Only 400 season tickets sold!

This was SISU'S last hope of getting the Ricoh on the cheap. I would hope they will now realise they will never get to own the Ricoh and sell up asap. There is a couple of investors waiting in the wings to buy the club and the Higgs charity 50% share of the arena, there is light at the end of the tunnel but may take a while yet. Also the Ricoh is hosting a charity game, Ccfc legends v Midlands legends on Sun 11th Aug 2pm. Its the same date as ccfc first match at Northampton which apparently has sold only 500 tickets so far, Bristol City fans seem to be also boycotting by only selling 182 tickets as of yesterday. They are expecting over 10,000 to attend the Ricoh to show that we will not attend games at Northampton and raise a lot of money for charity!

The system is truely flawed. If SISU do build a new stadium this is what WILL happen. Sisu build a new stadium for CCFC using loans. The stadium will not be owned by CCFC but by SISU who will then rent out the stadium to CCFC. They will put all the debt accrued from the loans into the CCFC bank meaning putting the club and not themselves £30million + in debt therefore leaving the club in the exactly same position as we are now

Yes the rent was £1.2 million but the new offer is 150k. Sisu will more than likely turn it down because they want match day revenue from food and drink. New rules say clubs can only spend 60% of revenue on players wages so Sisu will use that excuse to turn it down even though there match day tickets sales will significantly increase if they moved back to the Ricoh from Northampton

If the weather holds i might attend this tonight. Adam rode well for the Bees on Friday and i hope he can continue his improving form. It will be my first visit to the stadium, looking forward to it.

No i dont think the Council will give them approval thats why i said surprisingly. Tim Fisher has already said the new stadium will be financed by loans, we will be £30 million pound in debt before we even move into a new stadium. We all know they want to Ricoh cheap but that is never going to happen. If we are to play at Northampton we will not finish the season that is a fact. 300 season tickets have been taken up but that also includes players families etc not paying for them. I have no idea what they are thinking! Legally that lease is still in place. They need an academy. They have left the Alan Higgs Centre, they stopped paying rent for that also.

Ok cheers

Im quite looking forward to this. There are a couple of riders who ive never seen ride, Karpov in particular seems a rider who scores well in Europe. Is Lindgren riding?
