I seem to recall that the Orange came from the CFS logo our main sponsors. 

Yeah that’s it.

Pleased that Adam has been  confirmed he is capable of putting a point on his average.What i like about the side is there is a balance, there are established riders and riders with  potential to improve as the season goes along.

Will start as favourites I would suggest. 

 

Not for me. Sheffield are more balanced and stronger over all. 

Swindon will face some battles at home and pick up few away wins.

Going to be very close!!! everyone of the below could be argued the other IMO 

Doyle vs Pedersen = Doyle 

Batch vs Holder = Holder 

Jensen vs Graj = Jensen 

Ellis vs Lawson = Ellis (In the championship id say Lawson) 

Perks vs Howarth = Howarth 

Rowe vs Morris = Morris 

Stewart vs Kurtz = Stewart 

That's who I tgink will have the better season of the two but im not confident in any of it to be honest

The Swindon top four should score at least 40 every week at home and 36 away, so 10 from the three man tail should be the target.

My worry is that there will be plenty of matches where Rowe scores 0.

If Stewart or Perks doesn’t kick on and become a solid five pointer, Swindon will be fighting for fourth.

I think there could be a lot of changes throughout the year with this team, very strong top 4 but weak bottom 3 and every team needs at least one good reserve so unless Stewart or Rowe improve a lot during the season I can see many changes although it could be said the changes in 2019didn't do Swindon any harm.

That's not unreasonable. There's going to be a lot of pressure on Stewart and Perks.

Sheffield look decent but Swindon look quite a way ahead of them on paper, I have my doubts about Pedersen taking into account his age and time away from the UK and their reserves don’t convince me although accept many reserves won’t look great to start with. 

Sheffield look good for the top four but Swindon are the best on paper without doubt unless anybody else pulls rabbits out if the hat, can’t see it though.

Now the top 7 is confirmed Swindon will start as massive favourites with a way stronger top 4 than Sheffield.

I don't think either team has a tail which tail will do much wagging, I would prefer a more balanced team personally.

In my opinion Steve,  Wolves could be better with a more balanced team.

Could have been better!

Nicol instead of Nicholls is plain daft in terms of a 2020 title challenge.

I think Holder will have a better season than Batch yes... not sure that's a massively out there prediction to be honest but as I said im not confident in it as I honestly think every single prediction I made could go the other way fairly comfortably
