We can't have speedway ,an outdoor sport ,yet the government deem it safe to hold a snooker tournament in a confined space !!!!!!! I can't work out how much safer it is to go to snooker rather than speedway ??.

With the back strait open at sheffield I think it makes it more doable as we won’t fill the stadium. I think most premier teams stadiums are doable to be fair but not sure about Wolverhampton! Can they use there back strait? Hopefully we can get some racing soon even if it’s only one home one away. Can’t believe how good the weather has been on Thursdays this year but soon as we start we know that’s not going to last !!!

Gets my vote

Good line up for Todds meeting but I won't be surprised if it's off due the the corona virus.With all other sports cancelled till further notice I am expecting speedway to follow suit.

This is why nicki has been signed by sheffield,he's not had a race yet but there seems to be plenty of excitement building up already judging by all the posts on here .Personally I'm looking forward to it myself now,just hope the weather is better for the season than it is at the moment.Theres a buzz around British speedway again,the first for a long time,so hopefully we get a good summer and plenty of entertaining speedway.

He said he had flown in from Denmark and was stopping with steady for few days

Thoroughly enjoyed the evening with Nicki Pedersen comes across as a nice bloke off track. I think everybody there can’t wait for the season to start now. Told some good stories and said he can’t wait to get started. Well done Nicki and thanks for giving your time up to come across from Denmark to meet the fans.

Speedway fixtures are never set in stone so I would expect there to be a few Monday’s for us for tv purposes

Definately mr showman and when he was on it he was superb to watch. I think it was a bonus point run off with Jimmy Nilsen ,who was a hard rider and Roman reeled him in and got between Nilsen and the fence when there was hardly any room.This took Nilsen by surprise and everybody in the stadium .Absolutely amazing. R I P Roman.

Championship stats show Josh Auty no 1 atScunthorpe and Todd Kurtz 2 points on average worse than Josh and only a second string .So not much to compare.The stats say Josh is the better rider but on track Todd is a better gater and riding at reserve would be expected to get points round owlerton and occasionally away.Josh is spectacular round Sheffield but he would only be on par with Todd away.We can only speculate as other teams are not complete.If Douglas and Allen start at reserve then they will average a lot more than Todd.If you want to compare riders it should be Todd and Jordan Stewart who is quite good round Sheffield.

Yes he did but I think that's a better call to have Lawson at 2. Kyle needs to up his game because his last 2 seasons have been less effective than previously but that's probably been down to injuries.

Thought it would be. At least it leaves us with a little bit to play with if any rider doesn’t come up to expectation.

Musielak would be a top signing but don't think it will be him,more likely Lawson or Allen .If we could get Allen then we could attract Scunthorpe fans.

Welcome ash Morris not sure about this signing,did ok last season before injury and rode well against us at Brum last season.I think it depends on other teams 6 and 7. Good luck to the lad anyway.By my reckoning we've got about just over 6 points left.I would like Jake Allen but more likely Richard Lawson .

If the averages fit Dimi would be first choice reserve round owlerton. When he rode with Steady he was well in front so he would be a no brainer ,where as away from home him and Todd may be weak,so we either go for top heavy at home and risk the away score or find a rider who can ride any track.Not sure what points we've got left but Lawson and Dimi would make us very strong at home or possibly Bellego and Dimi ?
