With the opposition he has to face I can't see any reason why he won't achieve his current average or above. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

g13webb 4,254 Posted November 20, 2019 I say well done to Sheffield for bring back Nicki P. What a great capture he is. I'm sure he'll create so much added interest that has been missing for some time. Love him or hate him. you can rest assured he will give 100% every time he rides. Controversy always follows him about.. Our speedway has lack characters for some years now, but they don't come much bigger than Nicki. What a pity each of the 7 clubs can't do the same.... Wonderful acquisition..... This undoubtedly, will gain more headlines in the national press then the sport normally gets 3 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MPT is a good reserve rider but I don't think he will up his average in the main body of the team. MPT and Kerr are good solid reserves but as soon as averages get above 5.5 its time to move on as the only way is down!

Those of you that actually went to the AFA this year will have seen that TJ was involved in many of the more exciting races this season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was great at home, but his averaged dropped by 4 points away. Home 7.71 Away 3.78. That's huge. The biggest gap in the league I would of thought. As you know the Stars got nothing on the road last season. A few changes are needed if we want a play off place. We need to pick points up on the road in 2020. I'm not saying change the whole team, but Lynn's engine room needs to be better next season if they are serious about winning things. We had to many flying around the AFA, but poor away. Not picking on any one rider, but a few stats...... Last places...…... Home TJ 3 ...….. Away 11 Erik 1...…. Away 10 MPT 3..... Away11 Lewis 7...... Away 18 Edited November 21, 2019 by Bald Bloke 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Away 18 I realise TJ's away form was not so good, but watching some of the passing moves he made at the AFA was often worth it and as you know we have had a lot of gate and go for the last few seasons, so a bit of passing makes the visit all the more enjoyable.

Ipswich it seems never happened in the end and I've heard Boro were already traded on although nothing has ever been publically announced Typical speedway transparency!
