Ashton Boughen has been offered a contract & will be in the Cubs team in 2023 . 5 riders are returning & 2 new riders coming into the team. If true I am looking forward to an exciting season with bright young talents Working on the assumption of Dan and Coles stepping out with Boughen it leaves 8.7 for the final rider but with limited options i can see this team being built a couple of points under. The talents are certainly there but with each carrying a bit more pressure and a little less assistance in camp it could prove a tougher year for the Cubs.

I am told Dan is in the team because he has not got a championship side . 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ridiculous if he hasn't a cl spot just shows how bad the league is with the 2 pointers goin to be out classed and a young very good up and coming rider on the side lines 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So he can get a Premiership place but not a Championship place?! He clearly needs a middle tier spot, rather than NL, for his overall development but that’s British Speedway all over! 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dan’s average in the Championship is so over inflated by his form at Leicester that he is a huge risk for any Championship team to take on . Let’s be honest would any other club other then Leicester have taken Dan as a rising star in the Premiership ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I understand that and each individual club have to look after their own business first. Therefore should Brits under 21 get a bigger reduction in average than Brits over 21? For example, 20%, and that might have made Dan a better proposition to promoters. But not just Dan, all young Brits. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flagrag 704 Posted December 16, 2022 I must say I am rather surprised but pleased that Ashton Boughen has chosen to ride for Leicester rather than Oxford, I thought that with the Peter Shoroeck and Jason Crump connection that is where he would be. However I am told that option of unlimited free practice sessions and some sponsorship has convinced him to ride for Leicester in 2023 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
