Glasgow don't need to outbid teams, they have far more to offer than just paying top dollar, great track,great stadium and facilities, good fans who know what they're taking about unlike some clubs,definitely the team riders want to sign for,plus guaranteed future no issues with stadium owners and rent etc. Try not to be bitter, embrace what they bring to the table it can only be good for the championship in attracting riders we may not see.

I am normally savvy to the lineup early but admit I have had so much on my plate at the moment I am not savvy to the 1-7 for next season. I can take an educated guess and name 5 of the 7. I don’t think there will be any surprises or shocks. The top two will maintain. The next two brothers will improve. One will improve slightly and the remaining two will hold their own. Will be enough to walk into the playoffs. Hearing rumours that Glasgow are out bidding everyone else in their desperation to win the league. If true, then I hope their fans turn out in big enough numbers to cover the expense.

Just me or are the "in the know" brigade doing anyone else's nut in?

Purple helmets?

No no no he’s coming over for the £90 a point and no guarantees and leaving the polish league and big money for his love of the stripes. Remember everyone is getting checked this year to make sure that’s happening, BSPA are being strict and all that.

Money doesn't prevent injuries and it's injuries that have beat Glasgow the past two seasons

Marcin coming in at the start of the season will really improve he arrived for the later stages last year and scored well at home from the start i think he scored double figures every home meeting he only rode away at Edinburgh struggled with heavy track conditions but got round it easy enough and he will get the hang of it at berwick where he had ignition troubles with his bike and poole where his polish engine was just far too strong for the slick track and he only had one bike over with him he had a spare bike that cookie loaned him but didn’t really suit his size but he said he liked he tracks a real racer expect his to put at least 2/3 points on his ave i think after his first ride next season it will go from 5 to just over 7 points

A snail could beat you to it.

See I like this attitude, could you have a word with Arthur to chillax more. Needs to look after those arteries after all.

This place is mental. I blame Blobby.

A bit like the choice of sticking a pin in your left eye or your right eye......

I’ll take full responsibility. I write the press releases.

Can't remember the last time Poole built a decent team, well we've cleaned up in the championship for the last two seasons, god help the rest when they do build a decent team then

Good on Glasgow, nowak is an entertaining rider who is willing to get stuck in. The championship needs more riders like this,who cares what deal he's on,its nobody's business at the end of the day.

The team seems a bit top heavy to me, but the three heat leaders should get the Bears to 35 points at every away track, depends what the other 4 can pick up.

seen him in a number of meetings in Poland, Germany, Sweden, Denmark, and in each he's had really bad rides and falls. good rider though, with a good style for a tall lad, but i'll stick to what i've seen

Mr Blobby, now I don’t know you, and I don’t come on this forum often, but I’ve been told of your repeated telling stories about my son and where he has signed to! You appear to be just trying to make trouble with a 16 year (which is quite sad) as you are saying the same lies over and over! Let me clear it up for once and for all - Ace signed for the first club that asked him, and that was Glasgow! And that was even before the matches that took promoters attention, yes he had quite a lot of offers and calls, but he stuck true to his word and stayed with the club he agreed to first! Now hopefully you can stop sprouting lies that you ‘claim’ to be in the know about!!! Thank you -

Speedway has always been 15mins of sport and prices go up every year and fans will choose what they do it’s their call will you be going?

Yep I’ve just had a polar bear chap my door for a heat.

No speedway for 15 years , happy to pay an extra £16 for the whole season.

Jorgensen has just finished with his highest Prem average yet and was barely at reserve in 2022 (4 matches). To me he seems a good signing for Lynn if he stays.

At times over the last two or three seasons Jorgensen has been the only Lynn rider worth watching at home, he is exciting and rides Lynn well, and to be fair his away form improved too in 2022. This time last year I'd have agreed with you but for me he gets in on merit for next season. Cares about the club too which goes a long way.

Brilliant news, love Plymouth and rate gilkes very highly

Jack Smith, your joking surely.

Dan Gilkes returns... https://www.facebook.com/plymouthgladiators/videos/1310466569770783

No need to apologise…..it was clear to most of us.

How about Frederick Jacobsen, he is definitely better than his current average. Maybe our race night could be the issue there.

With Plymouth not running I'd look to seeing Ben Trigger return. Max James must be a highly likely addition and I'd be happy to see all of the others return bar Dan who has outgrown the league.

its possible decisions on young aussies are based purely on finance during these times,with worral,lawson and cooks theres already the foundation for a title winning team pretty sure matt can fill in the 3 blanks without gambling with the costs

With the same majority of riders from the last couple of years I cant see the home wins coming though, that is the issue. Wouldnt touch KK with a barge pole either

Fair enough if you don't rate him but many do and he'd soon ride Poole well if he was there every week and was privy to the right set ups and lines as a home rider. I just think talented young riders usually flourish under the Poole set up and he'd do the same.

No to Jack Smith, rather have Ablitt back.

He does but you would also think a team would be built to the points available, not 2 points under like this year.... So anything is possible

He actually said that he wants to learn different tracks in UK to help him become a better rider

Kyle Newman?

Thinking a different rider no one has mentioned at reserve who knows the Poole track, rode for us for years and lives locally.

Championship and Premiership are classed as one it seems , Maybe another rule with an unknown sub section of a sub section

Bloody hope so

Still think they'll bring back Batch also.

And also because with CVS at the helm riders know they are going to get treated properly and get paid on time.Thats one of the reasons why most of them are quite contented to remain at Monmore.

Dont know his name either but he owns the City Auction Group and he has a lot of money and is willing to spend big so they say That was until Dudek wanted £6k per meeting lol

It doesn't have to be , can't see the team being built that way, there is no point having a rider like Jack Smith, Ablitt would be a better option and have a better second string rider .

It is Arthur’s comfort blanket whilst he sits in his rocking chair sucking his thumb.

Like me you come to similar conclusion in that last reserve slot.

Now now children!!

Why? Good, up and coming British riders, what's not to like? Joe signed up but I reckon Dan would do really well at somewhere like Poole.

13.44 for last 2. I wouldn't touch Andersen myself

I've not read anything official about there being a draft system for the fast track reserves, where has this information come from? Also of Panthers have first pick why didn't they choose Leon Flint? If half the clubs can stick with their "RS" from last year it's not much of a draft is it?

A whole array of averages to quote from. 9.08 seems to be the GSA figure including BPs as shown on the BSPL website, the figure excluding BPs is 8.33 - lower than the 8.52 used for team building purposes. His season long average, based on 18 meetings comes in at 7.85 or 8.59 if you include BPs. His home averages are shown as 8.89 and 9.60 while his away figures are a less impressive 6.56 and 7.33. Take your pick !

Team announcements very soon.
