I don't get the loyalty issue with Denmark. Nothing has changed. Andersen rode for Poole this year and was in squad in Denmark. No new issues.

Quite possibly, should be higher on experience I guess.

I'm assuming the same FB. If he didn't do enough matches then it should revert back to 5.51. Not convinced by him personally but much better value than the awful THJ on a sub 4 tho.

Which is right? ? 7.71 listed on Leicester team or 5.51 listed in average order? An early cock up.

It's crystal clear who are backing it.

I wouldn't. A rider who finished 6th in the away averages is likely to be snapped up in a shot.

Piotr Pawlicki is 7.32. Hopefully back at Wolves tho. Woffy has stated he will always be happy to help Wolves out. If he was going to come back you can be sure if would be with Wolves. However he isn't coming back.

7.32 You aren't the first person to say Thorssell is poor and wrong as well.His away average is 7.55 (8.19 with BP). Speedway star have him listed as 6th in away averages, above Hans, Bjerre, Harris, Holder, Fricke, Holder, Kurtz, Nicholls, Lambert, King. Of all the listed above 8 for next season Jacob is 5th in away averages. I think we can all see that Jacob isn't poor away.

TNT said the same thing about Tai but I can't see any new average for him other than the one he finished 2016 on.

Let's hope it's common sense and it's as you were.

Well said Gavan. The hypocrisy of Starman is embarrassing.

Both Pawlicki's are under 8 from their last stints in the UK. Both valid averages. It's only doing what they used to do before the double points rule was introduced!

I'd assume it could be at any time between heats 5 & 14 (except 8) and any time a team is 6 behind. Like before and in line with Sweden and Poland. Saw another post suggesting it was once but that's too restrictive.

Tai 7.03 (doesn't include matches ridden in 2016 so maybe an adjustment will apply ? Piotr 7.32

it doesn't rule out the Danes! Hans and Nicolai rode for Poole this year on a Wednesday. Poole have had Danes on and off for years on a regular Wednesday night. The only thing that is stopping the Danes is the nonsense Polish mafia ruling. Well said. Plenty of good riders potentially to come back still with those averages. As for Niels K coming back.......ain't gonna whilst the Poles enforce the rules. Other burning questions unanswered - British rider or riders at reserve?? Be stupid to bin that. Averages for new or reassessed riders? Closing date for transfer window? On the positive side. Good news we fall in line with Europe having normal tactical subs, regular 2 day racing for our league (it's been crying out for it and whilst the doubling up situation won't change as we don't have enough riders there should be no clashes) so that's a good thing. Monday is obviously one of the better options for regular one night racing. It's the night of choice for both SKY and BT so hopefully that will help continuity of racing on TV. Should have left the option to build as you want within the points limit not restrict to one over 8.

Yes and plenty others. No doubt you are more than aware of them. Have you seen that Poole posters on the wolves thread? ?? Better tell them they don't belong on there too. So just to clarify. ....... you don't like people posting on a Poole thread if they are slating the riders or team, you don't like people posting on a Poole forum who aren't Poole fans and you don't think you should post on a thread unless you are a fan of that team. Is that right? The award for the forums biggest hypocrite goes to...............

And we're discussing clashes with the Danish league which is on a Wednesday, like this year. DUH.

They had 2 this year tho!!!

and??? Do you have a point??? Ever??? Says the poster who posts nonsense on every thread. You just can't make this up. Truly the gift that gives and gives. He probably don't get that all tho. The ultimate Poole embarrassment. I'm sure he will now quote all my endless negative Poole posts I've been making which are ........nil.

I'm interested in all teams line ups so far, so I can judge who we have to beat. Guess that's the thing about a forum isn't it, people posting about what's going on in the winter. It will never catch on.

Agreed. They should yes. The doubling up necessity should mean both leagues should be singing from the same hymn sheet. Doubling up is here to stay whether we like it of not because there aren't enough riders (who want to ride here) to fill all the team spots. Hopefully self interest of clubs will be kept to a bare minimum this AGM.

They probably won't no but there is more to this tho. It would appear that BE are being very clever likewise Horton but neither have the club's best interest at heart in this move. I can see why some won't support it. However it's a dangerous move not supporting it because there is a huge risk they won't be seen again if they don't support it.

Yes true. Main points usually released on the evening. Fuller one released later.

They may have signed (ditto for a lot of riders for several teams) but none are common knowledge until it's official). I'd expect that Brady and Shanes are indeed the 2 others.

I've only seen Woryna as confirmed signing. Links to supposed other signings? ?? Nothing on official site.
