Will need someone to come in with serious deep pockets if that's the case given the struggles last few years to get crowds over four figures, I would think championship would be a safer bet first season back, maybe try and get Brady Langdon over to revive the Eastbourne/American interest.

Shame PK retiring as could still have another 2-3 seasons in him at this level.

Why not plymouth and Berwick do has very little if any impact on crowd numbers imo. Supporters will always prefer live speedway   

The biggest takeaway from this season should be the Home form, or lack of it. Every meeting we did win was far too close for comfort, often behind until the latter stages. Also finished the season with a negative points difference at Home, across all League home meetings which probably hasn't happened before in our modern era. Need to set up the team to win at home in 2027, especially when being realistic, we will probably lose the majority of away meetings no matter who is in the side, if you win all your home meetings and nick one away win, the club would be making the play offs more times than not. One rider I would 100% have back to achieve this is Antti Vuolas, he easily averaged 8.5+ in both 24/25 seasons at home. And if the points limit does drop to 38, he would be a handy signing again on his 6 point something average, even if he does struggle away. His average will be good value in a weaker league

Don’t think it will be Jeppesen at Berwick.

Been looking at this years away results. Remove Berwick in the ko cup and Poole in the league, in all the others comets got 40 points or more and most meetings went to a last year decider, which I think is a good effort, often it was the home form that cost us,  2 big defeats against Poole and Glasgow, and a couple of more poor performances, cost us the bonus points, also apparently we never had our same team in any home meeting  . So we were not far off a decent team this year. Personally I witnessed many good away performances and last year deciders, not gonna mention Poole or Berwick in the cup 😒. As for next season, would like batch back, but maybe going south, Tate zischke is a must, Jonas did a good job, but depends on polish fixtures whether he would like a return . No issues in bringing Vinnie and Max back but Vinnie needs to sort out his machinery. For me kemp is too inconsistent and poor machinery. Let's all wait and see what the promotion brings to the GT tyres Northside arena, a lot could depend on budget, as we know the crowds need to be better, hopefully under lights at 7pm may help
