The White Knight 9,039 Posted March 25, 2015 When I first had a look at the team I got a bit giddy. I thought nailed on for the play offs. But looking at it, I think we will have done really well to make it. Its certainly a better team than last year, but the league is stronger especially at reserve. I just see 4 better teams, in fact 5. A lot is dependant on Max. I rate him highly, if he can get anywhere close to a 6.5, 7 point average then I think we will have every chance, but that's asking a lot of him. I think we will just miss out. I fancy we will finish 6th but not too far away. The league will be very competitive this year. Apart from wolves it looks very even. I have high hopes. Just keeping my fingers crossed for an injury free run that's all. A lot can hang on how many injuries you pick up over a Season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Laobob 19 Posted March 27, 2015 Good to hear you are happy so far with your team. Wanted to get you on the first page where you belong. Not so many snipers here either, which is good to see long may it continue :-) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GS550 449 Posted March 30, 2015 I have high hopes. Just keeping my fingers crossed for an injury free run that's all. A lot can hang on how many injuries you pick up over a Season. So true. A completely injury free season is probably too much to hope for, let's hop injuries are as few and as light as possible. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vintage Ace 0 Posted March 31, 2015 Hi all,team looks as good if not better than for a few years,Lemon a plus as team manager,he knows the crac.Should make play offs if we dodge the dreaded injuries,not having vast team assets,as one team has. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

orion 7,615 Posted April 1, 2015 Aces just look good all round ...Can't see how they can come outside the top 4 ..a proper number 1 with Cook and Nicholls giving good support they also have rock solid second strings and one of the best reserve pairings and also have a half decent team manager . The only worried is that for some reason the Belle Vue team have not done as well on the track as they have looked on paper in the last few years . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
