Absolutely. He's also got plenty of experience at Oxford having been a Charger, and always scored well back then.

In relation to the quality, I think what you say was true about 10 years ago, but venues have attempted to improve the quality more recently. For example, you can get some good pasties at Twickenham and the food at the Marketa was good. I have attended major sporting events all over the world and what was served up at the NSS at last years GP was in the bottom quartile at best.

Nilsson looking for a UK mechanic

Nikolai Klindt? Not heard his name mentioned much anywhere for next year. He goes Armadale well (except when guessing for Glasgow!). I'm expecting Palovaara to be back but still leaves plenty of points to use up

I kinda agree with those but he did have a few big first bend offs last year, which wouldn't help his form or confidence. Don't forget also, mainly from 2 Hausl got a higher average than Anze Grmek got from mainly reserve at Plymouth, and lots of rumours that Grmek will be at Ashfield next year He did show talent in brief flashes last year, although he had something like 15 no scoring rides in a row through August. When he gated he was fast, but when he didn't he looked a mile off the pace. If he was a reserve I could see him coming back to Ashfield next year and being a match winner. Equally I could see him coming back and scoring 0! The problem for me is that at Oxford he'd be number 2 with little prospect of going to reserve at any point for a confidence boost

Cluff didn't perform particularly well on his guest appearances for Comets 🤔

Senna Summers signs for Oxford.

That might be because ‘challenge matches and individual meetings ‘ lose money.

Your are very correct . A pity Dean doesn’t seem to think others are entitled to the opposite opinion to himself.

so how about they clubs that only have 11 fixture arange challenge matches run individual meetings etc its better than no speedway and they 4 months of official meeting would not be spaced out so more chance of keeping supporters going to matches rather than finding something else to keep them and there kids entertained ?

Generally is at most big events top price charged bang average at best served up.

Don’t you think Sam Hagon would thrive on being on the same side as Tom Brennan? It wasn’t long ago he showed lots of potential.

Tyler Haupt signs with Indianerna.

Vaculik has likely signed with Rospiggarna. Announcement on Saturday.

Strangely enough, I agree with everything you just said

Bomber

Any ideas on a second heat leader for the Monarchs then?

Ludvig Lindgren has decided to retire after 20 years as a speedway rider.

Thompson also not returning. Not shock there.

Vilkads Nagel is Grindsted’s 1st signing for 2027

I’ll second that. The food and beer offer in the main grandstand was nothing short of shockingly awful.

Fabian Magnussen signs for Vargarna

Cluff does ok at Northside he should be an option, used as a guest a couple of times to. Jackobsen i hope is back because he is surely better than his average of last year hope no other team get the benifit of that.

I like a good old rumour but I hope this one is not correct, Hook and Wood have zero chance of improving there currant average.

Perhaps I have and lets hope he brings us some great surprises. Successful sides have a history of keeping meetings close(ish) away while winning at home. Last season we lost two meetings at home in the league and that probably cost us a playoff spot. We also lost half our away matches by 12 or more points that cost us bonus points. The top 5 suggested is worse than what we had last season imo (and forums are all about opinions at the end of the day). We're always going to have meetings where riders have off days or we take a pasting against a very good side at their place but my view is the riders being suggested have had their day (in a number of the cases) and we need riders who can compete and win on any track and ultimately improve their averages. Take Scotty for example, top bloke, great rider in his day and can still pull out a top performance. Brilliant at home but his away average last season was 6.52 and he was getting beat by reserves away from home, that isn't acceptable from a number one, it just isn't.
