Bojangles 594 Posted January 20, 2023 So, most teams are starting to take shape. Who do we think is going to win, who will make the final and who will also challenge? I'll start. Oxford to win (not biased, honest), Workington runners-up, with Leicester and Mildenhall third and fourth. Berwick to finish bottom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think Edinburgh / The Acadamy or whatever or going to be the strugglers unless they manage to sign Clegg and two Australian newcomers 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

topaz325 1,859 Posted January 20, 2023 Not that bothered to be honest, just looking forward to watching good competitive racing and the riders enjoying and improving their racing. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mildenhall and leicester in the final maybe ???? and either team could nail it maybe,,,,, northside and kent possibly oxford 4th if they dont suffer to many injuries and a good few teams look like title winners on paper but lots of young riders with big excpectations placed on them so who knows which on paper champions will make the top two so as nostradamus would say lets watch it all unfold at meetings and enjoy a competitive season lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Petecc 352 Posted January 21, 2023 Team that avoids long term injuries has a good chance of winning. Once all teams are in place there isn't going to be alot left as replacements. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sings4Speedway 3,247 Posted January 21, 2023 Hard to look past Mildenhall and Oxford at present. I suspect Leicester will go a close 3rd. The rest will be scrapping out for the minor places although Worky could be the spoilers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheScotsman 2,483 Posted January 22, 2023 Edinburgh look odds-on favourites. Not a weakness in the team so far. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

szkocjasid 3,042 Posted January 23, 2023 Personally think Workington look the strongest team by far. Leicester 2nd best marginally ahead of Oxford. Then Kent, Mildenhall, Berwick, Belle Vue & Edinburgh. This is based on signed riders as Belle Vue have 2 & Edinburgh 0, can't predict them any higher!
