Floods and 7pm starts

The Only Combination that gives you a no1 and 2nd string is Jeppesen 8.24 & Jakobsen 3.78 Hausl 3.79 can’t see that happening 1. Jonas Jeppesen 8.24 2. N Jakobsen 3.78 3. Craig Cook 8.18 4. Jonathan Grahn 5.63 5. Kye Thomson 8.23 6. Jordy Loftus 3.76 7. Ben Whalley 2.00 Total 39.82

are we getting flood lights and evening meetings this year ? to be honest the 3pm starts suited me but id rather have later starts and better meetings

I think Klindt too he s got to be somewhere, and lambert , low av bargin

??? Both Kye Thomson and Craig Cook have higher averages than Bomber, so he wouldn't be number 1. Of the 2026 Championship riders not yet announced only Leon Flint (likely Glasgow), Zach Cook (not doing Champ) or Nikolai Klindt would start at number 1. Unless it's new to UK, or dropping down from Premiership on a converted average, then it looks like Klindt

Every club should have their tracks to suit own team ,no brainer but some are terrible at it, yea don’t understand, run a couple of preseason meetings helps as well

Double post

No Wolbert then. It’s Bomber isn’t it?

I agree with @Daniel Smith @szkocjasid and the majority. He came into Northampton on his converted 2025 Championship average. He only did 5 Premiership meetings to count towards an average, so since he hasn't got an established Premiership average he should go into the 2027 Premiership on a 2026 converted Championship average, which is 3.69

Oh right that's what happened then because I've always wondered why they went so slick because the track in the NDL and our first Championship season was much better racing and no where near as slick as the last two years. Let's get them starts ripped right up and our riders get set up for it 💪

Been paid and paid on time are two different things, the later being the problem riders have had.

Im sure you’ve all been wondering where I’ve been and yes I know greatly missed you don’t all need to tell me. Anyway team shaping up nicely still to announce our number 1 and another 2nd string to finish the team off.

I agree with @Daniel Smith McDiarmid's average should be 3.69. @arnieg they don't count matches that take place after the play-offs have started, so McDiarmid only rode 5 matches that count, daft rule imo. @Witches1998 I believe that's what they've done. It makes no logical sense to me, that McDiarmid is riding on a converted average from mid-season, rather than his final average converted. It has happened before in the NL, Adam Roynon signed on a 6 (3 point ave doubled) but didn't get enough matches. They kept that average rather than using his final Champ ave doubled the following year. Pretty lazy attitude by the rule makers imo, like they can't be bothered to give a rider the correct average.

from what i was heard few weeks back clubs have been intouch not only uk clubs edinburgh turns out to be the team i heard he was going so lets see if the other country turns out to be right

How big does the air fence need to be, as Plymouth is the size of a polo mint 😜

Well the biggest problem to the track being slick by all accounts, is heading south. So we might actually see how good it really is next season.

Mitch did 6 Premiership matches with Northampton, so he does have a current Prem average. And from those matches he scored 24 points from 28 rides. I make that 3.43

Home form has to improve but I think we need the track prepared in a way that it gives some home advantage to our riders, to many of them seemed to like the track slick which just suited the away riders just as much mainly the gates in the meetings we list it was mainly from the gate, let's try and get the track prepared in a way that the away riders don't fancy it as much or get the gate sorted in a way for our lads to get dialed into.

The money fallacy comes mainly from one man Lewy, about time he put another record on. All Worky 2026 riders have been paid. That came from a source who would know.

I do agree we need to be winning home meetings which we failed to do a few times last season. Im a bit taken aback from numerous comments on this forum lately about Workington being bad payers is this thrue because I'd not heard anything of this previously the only issue was the point when they needed to sort the paperwork out which had not been done properly if at all. You don't generally get anyone to guest if your a bad playing club and Workington had plenty of guests. Cook had a swipe in his interview I read but again how many times have we read an interview from Craig exactly like that each winter he hoi g to do this and do that but then when the season starts he just decides he not turning up. He let the team and fans down massively last season because that was a good team until he pulled out.

Yes he has you are correct 👏

I see Garry May has done a video saying still more money needed for a new airfence!?

Looks poor to me, Mcdiarmid is not doing championship either so that usually has a detrimental affect on form in a rider of his standard.

I’m hoping very soon that we start announcing some riders we no at least 2 new riders are needed so fingers crossed we hear soon
