Morning Kevin & Jan, all aboard the Pirate Ship!

Lech Flintski

Numbers wise it seems closer to the current Leicester team, though that does have a big hitter in Fricke, somebody capable of winning heats 13 & 15 and generally beating the opposing teams number 1, that's all Lynn are short of really. The legacy teams in the PL Ippo, Sheffield, BV have all managed to build with some astute signings, of the 3 newcomers only Leicester have really managed to compete thanks to the signing of Fricke. For Lynn, since Lambert left they've made some poor signings in Laguta & Musielak (tbf who knew that Musielak would do what he did) as number 1's... and don't really have one this season.

Won't be a top league sadly 

Over the years found him to be insulting & jokes stuck in the 70’s but each to their own.

The superheat is a sort of creeping americanisation of sport in that they simply don't like or do 'ties' - the trouble is they do provide drama and a sudden death jeopardy which the fans at the tracks seem to enjoy. I have seem one and the roar at the end at Foxhall when they secured the superheat v's Peterborough a couple of years back was huge.  The problem is everyone wants their promoters and and the sport to innovate and move foward and appeal to the non diehards - there are always so many threads dedicated to what can be done to 'save' speedway and here is an innovation that certainly seems to be well received on the terraces, rather liike the playoffs and everyone seems dead against it on here.  In football terms i always felt a well ground out away point was often a great reward, draws in speedway and other sports don't actually happen too often - personally i wouldnt have introduced it but i can see and understand why they have.
