gazzac 1,008 Posted November 13, 2017 (edited) Think I'll have a proper go when we know the points limit. I do see there's very little between Josh, Jake and Mark in the averages, and I can only think one of the 3 will be back, would say Jake or Josh are more of an out an out No1, but Mark is 0.2 ish lower so if it's really close to the limit, that may come into play. Think we will build around Brennen and Wood again though. Has the National League agm date been announced yet ? Edited November 13, 2017 by gazzac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hunters 210 Posted November 13, 2017 So you unsettle Hunter and now target Rowe? Not really, I went for Hunter because I think the Kings have the same problem as us. Three decent heat leaders and then Rowe as a good second string should leave only room for three 3+ riders to make the team up. Therefore Hunter becomes spare, possibly Andrews as well. We are working at present on 39 points and Hunter ,Rowe plus two at 3.0 uses 16.5 only leaving 22.5 for the heat leaders which must surely mean no Bowen and I cannot imagine that. These lads can work the numbers out and I expect Hunter and Andrews are already wondering where the can get a ride next year. The same can be said for Charley Powell and Matt bates. The top three all have this problem unless they severely weaken their heat leaders. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

teaboy279 1,038 Posted November 13, 2017 Bates posted on Facebook that whilst he plans on continuing riding in 2018 he does not think he will be able to commit to a team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TurnTwo 317 Posted November 14, 2017 So looking at the league with the news of Coventry running at Leicester potentially the league could be: 1 Belle Vue 2 Eastbourne 3 Kent 4 Mildenhall 5 Plymouth 6 IOW 7 Birmingham 8 Buxton 9 stoke 10 Cradley? 11 Coventry? 12 lakeside? 13 kings lynn?

teaboy279 1,038 Posted November 14, 2017 Think the 2 biggest question marks are Cradley and Lakeside (Cook did state in the SS that they would still keep the NL team when they stepped back up.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cityrebel 2,960 Posted November 15, 2017 If lakeside move up, I'd be amazed if they run two teams. The crowds were terrible last year, why would they want more of the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Islander15 1,061 Posted November 15, 2017 I cant see Lakeside running an NL side after this year. Id take the Warriors finishing 6th though haha. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
woofers 467 Posted November 16, 2017 So looking at the league with the news of Coventry running at Leicester potentially the league could be: 1 Belle Vue 2 Eastbourne 3 Kent 4 Mildenhall 5 Plymouth 6 IOW 7 Birmingham 8 Buxton 9 stoke 10 Cradley? 11 Coventry? 12 lakeside? 13 kings lynn? No chance. Lakeside don't know if they're coming or going - they're in a different league every month. Coventry and Kings Lynn had a go this year and blew it - they should't be allowed to track a team, purely on the basis that it would let everyone know you can just waltz in and out of speedway at a whim with no consequences. Judging by the antic's and potential safety issues at Stoke, they should be either closed down or brought up to standard. Anyway, do you think there are enough riders available to fill 13 teams ?

TurnTwo 317 Posted November 17, 2017 I was only listing the teams I wasnt saying finishing order or if they would be riding hence the question marks against the teams that i thought were 50/50 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

teaboy279 1,038 Posted November 21, 2017 What I don't get is home comes his average is 3.50 when it was 4.00 a month ago and he is undeclared.... So what prompted the .5 reduction? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
