Witches v Brummies 28th March
SlicktrackSandy replied to Badge's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Kinda looks that way this year doesn't it ? "This is just another Witch Hunt and everybody knows it"! Sadly, this one at least looks likely to fail. -
Someone said that Jerzy Milik would go down well ! Jerzy Milik.webp

Would agree with that. It would be a real shame if a very young rider like Max was squeezed out of an NDL place for the sake of 0.05 points. Many believe that 36 point limit is too low anyway and the 36.25 or even 36.50 limit would allow more flexibility if required. Second decimal point rejection in a Development League such as this does seem a bit harsh when a young rider's future career prospects rely on at least 10 competitive matches at NDL level to gain valuable track time. -

Would be great if Dayle manages to do that. Four heat leaders would be pretty cool in this league. Could be an interesting and entertaining season ahead. -

Another factor to take into consideration is that Lee Complin rides for Glasgow most Friday nights. -

Fair point but that would be only 5 times - the other 5 would be a fair bit easier at at a guess. -

Whatever happened to Jack Kingston ( 6.45 ) no mention of him this year. Thought he looked really good at Armadale in 2022 for Mildenhall. Was heading for a maximum when he slipped off in his last ride. Tom Woolley has already had two stints with the Devils - not sure if he is kind of rider that would fit with this type of team in 2024 but that's just a guess. -

Glad he decided to come back this year. Learnt a lot last year and will surely build on that in 2024. Throws the maths out a bit but with 11.63 points left am sure that is well in hand. -

Have not read anywhere if Dayle Wood is returning this year. Assuming he is not, the latter would look feasible i.e. Perry & Watson leaving 4.45 points to make up the total. -
Not impossible - maybe an "import " 5.00 as the final member ?
-
Suspicions could now be, if not Lasse on 4.57 perhaps a 5.00 new import to take up most of the remaining points to 38 ?
-
Fully agree there. Was sure Birmingham would give him a call to double up and especially on that average. No denying that Paco is a real showman with an infectious enthusiasm which he is not shy to demonstrate. A PC celebration is a highly entertaining addition to a meeting which fans seem to lap up. Great team player too.
-
Maybe a visa issue is holding things up ? As things stand my vote would be to keep Lasse & Paco and add Eric which would come in under 38.00.
-
Snowballs chance in a very hot place anyway so no need to panic !
-
Maybe am wrong - and that's not too unusual - but would that not make the total a tiny whisker over 38 ? Eric would fit in ok though ?
