I agree, the three of Perks Mountain and Thomas between them have good experience at the level required and if you stack them against other teams' lowest 3 they do seem stronger, and the double spearhead has plenty of scoring ability to let the middle two have some "license to thrill"! If Scott Nicholas can emulate the job Joe Screen very ably did for Stewart Dickson at Glasgow, it should go well. At last. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The first full season in 2011 we won the league. The second season he was on a rapid decline and the third was plain awful. Reading Speedway Star this week Stewart is quoted as saying he will only be able to help with the track on match days. That should be to everyones benefit though the track guy will have to stand up for himself if results dont go to plan and SD demands knee deep tracks only a select few can ride, as he has done so often previously.

Happy Hunter 370 Posted January 12, 2019 I notice from the BSPA web site that Danny King put in some practice laps at Leicester recently. Does anyone know when the latest round of track alterations at Beaumont Park are likely to take place? 17th March is not too far off! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fliss44 346 Posted January 12, 2019 Quote 17th March cannot come too quickly for me. I cannot wait and have the added bonus of being able to bring my dog to the stadium (the 4 legged one) not to mention Scott Nicholls . Have had a couple of years in the ''speedway'' doldrums with work commitments and fixed race nights not to mention the grieving over Coventry closing (I appreciate this sounds a tad dramatic but it made me very sad ). Onwards and upwards! See you There Gemini x 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Happy Hunter 370 Posted January 20, 2019 (edited) You will have to wait until the 2019 Regulations are published to find out if there are any changes. Why don't you just print off one for each meeting? I have one on an Excel spreadsheet where I just fill the rider's names in in the rider's score chart and they then automatically appear in the heats.
