The problem with BT Sports through Sky is that if you have SkyQ boxes you can only watch BT Sports on the main box and not multi room.

Gino Manzarez is the surprise. -
Charles Wright for me over Dan Bewley at the moment. In 2 years time the opinion may be reversed with Wright then being 33-34.

So you want Pickering just because he'll do better at Ipswich & Wolverhampton? Not a good logic

?!?

Schlein retires this season, I just don't see him going all out. High 5's in the averages at best for me

Ricky Wallace, Niklas Porsing, Joachim Kugelmann, Simon Lambert -
Nicki Pedersen doesn't have the GP's so was available. Had he been in the series Sheffield wouldn't of got a sniff. Hancock & Lindgren don't want or need the busy schedule, so yes, it is hilarious when stupid names are banded about.

Don't forget Ipswich ended the season with Iversen so he must of been happy with the pay rate and certainly isn't a rider to suggest a lack of ambition. For me, one of the biggest issues in attracting International rider's is their track. Rider's want big fast mecca's not 5 pence pieces. It was a reason for Iversen's struggles in 2019 imo.

People get to hung up on averages. My opinion on this team injury free is top 4 comfortably. End of season average prediction as follows 1. Masters 7.35 (=) 2. Morris 5.38 (+1.00) 3. Schlein 6.65 (-1.00) 4. Becker 5.27 (+1.00) 5. Thorsell 7.33 (+0.50) 6. Douglas 4.66 (+1.50) 7. Nicol 4.00 (+1.00) Ave: 40.64 (44.64) All this chat about Lindgren, Hancock etc is absolutely hilarious to think Wolves fans think it's even possible.

Why wouldn't he? In a draft system Swindon wouldn't have a choice who they have. Draft systems usually work by the worst team having first pick the following season. In that case, why would anyone leave Doyle for Swindon to have. Also, gradings are so unfair too. Doyle 8.96 Batchelor 8.82 Pedersen 8.61 Lambert 7.81 Cook 7.78 Kurtz 7.54 Holder 7.49 Masters 7.35 Thorsell 7.33 You'd feel a bit peeved to be left with Masters as No1. What happens with the 2 not picked? Drafts system =Daft systems

We've been over this subject time and again and it's just not possible. To many factors in the way. Rider's wages are one thing, with certain clubs pay better than others. Rider has to be interested. As an example not fact:- Jason Doyle is on £400 a point, he has to go to Peterborough who can only afford £200 a point. Should he have to accept that? Of course not, he'd probably feel better off giving the UK a miss. It was bad enough when a draft system was used for reserves. Some rider's refused due to distences to travel etc. If a team can afford 4 heatleaders and other clubs can't, so be it. That's sport.

Think Todd Kurtz will be 3.39 as he'd been declared in the top league previously with Poole in 2012. It's only 'new' foreign rider's to the league that have to be assessed 4.00 minimum and that's only for team building and re-declaration.

Maybe MPT had an option of both with Buster and he had chosen Peterborough as his own choice being a better racers track? -

Proctor has great value at reserve. When looking at the heat format race by race Proctor on his average should at least score a point per heat against the opposition reserve. Have no doubt, Proctor will improve his current average at reserve. The issue though is would he likely remain reserve? Probably not but if the reserve spot is swapped and changed between Procter and Kerr that does hold some strength in the reserve position. -

Not true -
Can't imagine Swindon will worry about Anders scores. Pretty sure his initial target will be as simple as match or beat the opposition No7 score on a meeting by meeting basis. Up to the experienced rider's to do their job to win meetings. No pressure on the kid

Confirmed by Rosco Rowe will be a 3.00

WTF is the point in that side. Would struggle against a Championship side away from home. Awful -

German:- Huckenbeck, Smolinski, Wolbert, Riss x2, Härtel French:- Ellis, Bellago, Bergé, Tresarrieu x2, Would have all the German's bar Mark Riss and Smolinski a risk on a 7+ average. French born, only Ellis and Bellego stacks up. Some would add something different to the team of the previous 2 seasons and add to our away form. -

Just re-read the press release from the 22nd Nov. I don't think the team will have many changes as all Allit said: “From a club point of view with King’s Lynn, the points limit we will work with and we will do our best to assemble a good competitive team. One thing I do like going forward is having continuity with riders". That suggests hardly any change from 2018 & 2019 seasons. -

If someone with a 5.43 average is to be at reserve we'll be looking at a quite abysmal team I'm afraid. On that average and to be competitive on the road Kerr has to be at No2 or No4. -

Wouldn't have to as should come back on his last UK average 1. R.Lambert 7.61 2. R.Lawson 5.64 3. E.Riss 6.61 4. M.Bech 6.26 5. C.Cook 7.59 6. C.Vissing 4.43 7. J.Pickering 4.36 Ave: 42.50 -

It has been said that Mikkel Bech is a cert in British Speedway this season. I hope it's King's Lynn alongside Lambert and Cook. Would be as competitive top 3 as any other club so far and that would show a statement of intent.
