fully expecting the track to be six inches deep in shale and wetter than a bonnie blue mattress 

No peeking! I forbid it 😜😂

R/r would not be a disadvantage as Grahn, Loftus and Kye do well at Glasgow, Paco is not that great round there, only got 6 last time

I have blinds 😁

its all a big assumption that NONE of the gp riders would want to ride though, you've picked some of the weakest teams and ruled every big rider out, which wouldnt be the case. 

We will have to wait and see to what extent the changes are “interesting” or otherwise but most probably nothing more than something to dumb down the league competition on the basis of survival tactics rather than introducing something resembling a plan for growth.  I really do hope I’m wrong but nothing in terms of changes made by the collective promoters during the past decade give me faith to the contrary.
