I've seen enough this year already to realise we're in for a rough season.

Thankfully Ipswich will beat us to the wooden spoon but we won't be far off from bottom spot.

Haven't looked right in the Cup fixtures either and the team is far too reliant on Ben Basso imo.

1-5 has a few riders on highly inflated averages due them dominating rising stars at reserve for a month or two in 2021.

That Panthers side has 7 riders who could quite easily score 10 points at BV.

I don't think any of the Panthers are going to score 10!

Quite embarrassing

Belle Vue are going to win the league this year no doubt about it. Like I said last week even Mark Lemon won't be able to mess this one up.

As for us we now need to be on the phone to Krzysztof Buczkowski, Jonas Jeppesen and riders of that calibre. Yes the riders have earned the right to defend their title but this is alarming and most of them aren't even performing well in the SGB Championship either.

Peterborough will be up there looks like a few mechanical failures in a few heats which can't be helped

Ipswich so far are the only side you look at and think "nailed on" 6th  

This Belle Vue side looks now on par with Sheffield if not slightly better

Lynn and Peterborough depends who is at Reserve

Yep.  They made history last year and they'll be club legends for it but they look their age atm

They'll always be legends of the Sport and legends of the club.

Not sure if it's an age thing tbh. I think we've got 7+ averages galore for riders who'll only get you 5/6 points a meeting at best in return. Highly inflated averages due to the riders in question scoring 11, 12, 13 points every week at reserve for a month or two in 2021.

Looking forward to this, my first meeting of the year. All the Panthers seem to go well at the NSS, but I still think that the Aces top 4 (plus Brennan) will be enough. 48-42

I think the only certainty here is that Harris will get an E.F.
