'Team manager Cami Brown said: “This is the team we wanted for 2026. It’s a fabulous mix of youth and experience plus so much entertainment. It’s a side of pure excitement." ' I'm curious as to which would Tigers fans prefer - an exciting, entertaining side or a winning side? I'm only asking because i've seen many exciting sides win nothing and many unexciting sides win silverware. And what does 'exciting' really mean in the context of speedway because sometimes entire meetings can produce 14 heats of unexciting action and then throw up a 'heat of the season' and turn a meeting on its head. I tend to find speedway exciting regardless of whether or not there are lots of overtakes, spills and close results, so personally i'd rather see a winning team than "pure excitement". The same goes for the football where most matches are rather boring affairs these days but it just takes one goal to send me home happy. I know an exciting team can also be a winning team but i'd take a winning team, no matter how exciting/bland, any day of the week, 

So it sounds as though there WILL be a Prem and a Championship in 2026. The Prem format may well be a little different to what Prem fans are used to as they prepare for something new/different in 2027, Those Riders who maybe aren't going to get a double up/down place in 2026 are already looking abroad in oredr to hedge their bets for 2026 and/or 2027 and beyond. Stewart Dickson seems to think that the aim - or at least the initial discussion - for 2027 is a 6-team Prem and 8-team Championship. Meantime the Championship continue to build and announce their 2026 teams with the streaming support of BSN.

From what everyone was saying on this forum i fully expected Luke Harrison to be nailed on for a starting spot in the Red & White for 2026. And going by what everyone else was saying i'm probably the only one on here who is happy to see Freddy back for the Tigers. I realise he was up and down all season but he did show signs that he was progressing overall so coming back on a sub-3 point average was a good decision by the club to re-sign him. I hope Max Perry manages to get a spot with another team because he's worthy of a No 7 spot in this league. I'm probably alone though in thinking that this isn't as strong a side as last year and i don't think the Tigers will start off as favourites this coming season as i'm looking at other clubs such as Berwick and Worky and liking what i see being built there. I also think Edinburgh will be stronger than last season when they pushed Glasgow very, very close to a place in the Grand Final so i think now is not the time for Tigers' fans to start getting too excited, at least not until September when an underperforming rider gets replaced by a Tarasenko or a Nagel as has usually been the case. Just my opinion.

Sounds like you're asking somebody to make some numbers up to challenge the numbers you've made up, is that right? As the numbers are not in the public domain you may be waiting for a while.
