Maybe Poole are not going for a 2 pointer this time around? As for Nathan he lives in the deep south and relies on his father to take time off work to ferry him around. Edinburgh is a long long way for home meetings!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This 40 point is a pain in the backside really. Depends if Kye and Paco can show more consistency especially away from home. They were up and down more than a fiddler’s elbow last season. Can’t think of many meetings where they both clicked in the same match. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only Berwick and the alleged Scunthorpe teams known so far, neither look that great but will any this season? It's only 2 points but will have a significant impact imo It was rumoured it was going to be 38 pts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When you consider Poole, Leicester and Glasgow are going to drop 4, 5 and 6 points respectively from their final score next year it just shows how much speedway is being diluted. My thoughts are the league winners final average should be the building point for the next season so teams are improving. Maybe we would get some loyalty and riders returning the next year. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There would be quite a few riders without a place on averages between 2 & 4. Only way to get loyalty is discount the riders average at the team building stage(10%) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why have Poole got to drop 4 points? They finished on 43 points with any Brits still to get the 2.5% reduction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kye Thomson 4.Paco 5.Craig Cook 6.Connor Bailey 7.2 pointer 39.93 I think I would be delighted with this team, thanks for putting this together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
