The downside to a fair race track is a lesser home advantage. Since it seems that next years teams will be fielding at least one rider of GP level quality, I’m not so sure that the reliance on home form will bag bonus points. The likes of Sheffield and Ipswich will be looking for heat 13 & 15 advantages on their travels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iainb 5,070 Posted December 8, 2023 (edited) It's a shame that it looks like Sedgey won't be back. He was possibly the catalyst in our team last season with his partnership with Fricke. Probably not done himself any favors with his increased average, especially in a stronger league. I would have expected to have seen him at Brum next year, but they reckon none of this years team will be back Edited December 8, 2023 by iainb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

noaksey 345 Posted December 9, 2023 Good side for me, if Wolves can get to the play offs which they did easily then Leicester with Fricke should certainly do that and potentially compete for the final 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Douglas was 4th in three averages at Monmore and his away average was far better. So he should score a lot better at leicester now it's super smooth..
