Just for the challenge? Looks pretty weak full stop.

I’m just glad he’s not at Swindon

Really? BV strongest top 3? Swindon 4th? Wolves 6th. I just can’t agree with that.

Lee Kilby is the new co-promoter replacing Colin Pratt - who moves to Peterborough.

So with Berge quitting Somerset because he couldn't get a full-time mechanic in the UK, what does that mean for BV? A predicted short stay to be replaced by a higher averaged rider after 1 meeting when his rolling average changes?

What - like Tai Woffinden?

PUK?

In what way is he deluded - given that he is a KL supporter and has his team out of the playoffs? It’s his opinion - or don’t you like BV in 6th spot? Deluded - believing something that is not true!

Speedway may be a numbers game when putting sides together but this starting 7 certainly won’t be the finishing 7 IMHO. Harris is on an inflated average that sees him ride at #1 - a position he has never really excelled at and there are a few riders that to find some consistency - Lawson, King (returning from injury), Bellego and Heeps (who had a very poor season at Wolves). I can see this team dropping about 2-3 points collectively in the first month.

The problem is that you need to use it or run the risk of losing it - that's the standard line. It is actions like this that drive more fans away from a sport that is "dying on its @rse". So rather than encourage new fans they p!ss off existing fans - not a great business model

That would be a stupid thing for Harris to do - given the only places left are all Buster's clubs! I'm sure he would rather be riding and earning than watching - assuming the terms are right.

Peterborough were looking like the team to beat and really sorry to read that they have released Harris. I wonder who they will bring in to replace him that is cheaper than him on a similar average? Nicholls to Peterborough and Harris to Ipswich? Or is that two (heat leader) Brits on the sidelines when the season starts?

Probably same reason as Nicholls

Never a good idea to let attention seeking trolls start threads. Such a childish thing to do

I’m pretty sure that was B.A. Robertson - showing my age - lol
