Not in your lifetime, Steve.  

 

And not on a Swindon thread.

Who says we’ve signed these other riders I’m sure we’ll know a lot more after the 12th

You will know after whatever date you choose to pick but it won't be anymore or anything different, because we have signed those riders.

Last year, at the age of 30, he increased his PL average by 1.5 points. That shows he is still capable of improvement.  He also showed in both the British Final and the Cardiff GP that he can now mix it at a higher level than he has previously shown.

I would see him as a signing that could do well both at home and away.  He isn't one of those riders who have a significant difference in their home and away averages. There was only 0.75 between them last year and I see no reason to think that any improvement this year will not be reflected across both of those averages. 

Agreed 

Two point increase in the Championship and finished second in the averages in that league. 

I think he's come up on the rails a bit but also believe he can go higher. 

Added to the fact that he lives only a short distance away and with his family connection to the Aces signing him is a no brainer.

Charles has been gradually improving. He's a classic, run of the mill British rider. Will do well in this league and as 3rd HL he should get himself over a 7 point average.

So, it's looking like:

Kurtz

Worrall

Wright

Bewley

Kildemand

Lidsey 

Pickering/Etheridge

Given where I was a couple weeks back, I'm very happy with that team. A slight step back in the top 2 but I think we now have a stronger 3rd heatleader and better reserves. 

Bewley and Worrall for similar reasons, were poor last season. If they can get back to pre 2019 form then we will make the play offs I'm sure.

I stand to be corrected, but with that team Pickering wouldn't fit.

Etheridge, however, would.

As long as they don't 'poach' Kenneth Bjerre I really don't care.  We may need him ourselves!
