Absolutely, I’ve been saying the same thing all along. You pointed out the realistic and probable outcome to this one big league. it will be padded with NL riders completely out their depths and an horrifically imbalanced team set up. Do whatever it takes to get Poole and Glasgow to move up and drop same race nights if required. Top flight racing is a must if we want UK racing to survive.

Every track has great meetings and racing and also dire ones. Even the NSS.

Such a great advert for speedway, both teams really wanting it and good cut throat racing. Was certainly better than the bland ippo/aces affair. Well done the Lions but a great effort from the Tigers. Spoilt brat jack inability to do his job cost his team big time.

Absolutely, and so were those potentially capable of lifting the world title. Adams was a whole different level to Fricke, but yes way to fair to be World champion.

I disagree. You need to be in the top 7 to qualify for next season. All 7 achieved that goal this year. lindgren to me is by far the most entertaining to watch unparalleled. Adams was top dog in the EL year after year for many many seasons. This is the first season Fricke will have topped the averages. I get the comparison on world stage level but Adams was in a different league in the EL.

Gotta say Fricke is a different animal in the UK this season, probably the best rider of the season? However he is still lacking at GP level and remains pretty much an also ran.

Cardiff numbers would have stayed high if they got the track and the racing right. There were probably 3 or 4 decent standard track preps and good racing in the whole of its history at the PS. The dreadful track surfaces and not world championship standard racing put people off in there thousands. Which was perfectly understandable.

Disgraceful (lack of) performance from the Aces GP stars. I’d be embarrassed that they let your team down but instead saved their best efforts for the weekend. The Witches fully deserve their place in the final and hope that Emil can get his woes sorted for the final. They will face much tougher opposition in the final than the Aces tho.

Probably as expected. The Witches even not on full form can still push the weakest team in the play offs to a last heat decider. The Aces bottom 4 have been awful for most of the season. The reserves could have been changed before Tates average dropped to give them at least a better chance. Lemons faith in the reserves has cost them big time. The witches still have to do the job on Thursday and of course anything can happpen and the Aces have been able to step up under pressure in past play offs. Given that some Aces fans have already given up after tonight 🙄 I suppose they will be telling us to write us off at your peril if they pull it back. Lets face it it will be a huge shock if they do progress.

I reckon it’s a blinder played the Witches, a nothing match for them and let’s make the others believe they are vulnerable at home before smashing teams in the semis and final. Well they should be with this team. Anything less will be a failure this season. THE strongest team all season and built very cleverly there is no better chance of winning the league. It’s the play offs so anything can happen obviously. The Aces look the weakest of the 4 but they have good pedigree in the more recent play offs so I guess they shouldn’t be written off at anyone’s peril. Can’t see them doing it tho this year.

Brummies will struggle to get 20

Musielak, Zagar and Rew all over 6 for new averages. Jepsen Jensen was also. Although the relevance of the question I’m not sure is what? Lawson IS a 6 point rider, check his average for September.

It’s weird that Oxford have only won against Birmingham yet Birmingham have beaten other teams! Not many tho. 😉

More like 6.

In the UK I’d agree. Not at international level, just bang average. Certainly riding for Leicester has helped him progress in the UK.
