I know we're supposed to be grateful that we've got another season, but we have to sign 7 riders that can offer some resistance to the visiting team.... It's hard not to comment, when rumours of potential signings fly round! I'm waiting for a 'signing' of intent....before compiling a prediction, or for any enthusiasm.

LOL I don't think it's that bad, couple of what should be good reserves and we know all Worrall and Brennan. The question marks would be over the three Poles.

For me Ippo, Sheff, BV & Oxford look like a clear top four but margins are fine in speedway and you never know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You wouldn't, you're a Lynn fan aren't you Should be a good season for KL next year but I'm sure Birmingham will have a stronger line-up than the has-been poles. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dudek 2. Brennan 3. Laguta 4. Worrall 5. Lawson 6. Z.Cook 7. Flint I think with the british reduction Dudek and Laguta would just about fit, and that would probably be good enough to get the Brummies in to the play off's but would it Bankrupt NT ?. It's a good mix of 2 genuine top enders, 2 middle order come 3rd heat leaders, and 3 improvers in Brennan, Cook and Flint. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Laguta wouldn't turn up and Dudek isn't allowed to as he's in 3 leagues already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
