  1. Iversen is the obvious one. Going to be a rider at the end of their career, nobody young, ambitious and any good is going to come to the UK. Bewley & Holder are the last two and there is every chance they wobt be here in 2022.
  2. Yep Lawson, Mountain and Andersen, who I also think deserves another go. The rest should be cleared out.
  3. He's a shadow of the rider who rode for Lynn two years ago!
  4. There would need to be some sort of grading if rising stars if all teams are going to have two, particularly if a couple of teams join the Prem to make it eight sides. For example Pailin, Mountain, Hume, Brennan, Flint, Rowe and Kemp to be shared out a d then another batch of rising stars to be chosen as number sevens such as Thompson twins, Bickley, Gilkes, Bailey, Edwards, Jenkins etc.
  5. I wouldn't take too much notice of end-of-season rumours, they are usually hogwash. That said if four or five returned with two or three quality signings to join them I think we would have a decent side.
  6. I definitely think KierStarmerFan should do that.
  7. Great meeting, not one of my favourite tracks but there were some fabulous races tonight. Wroclaw are home and hosed in reality but Lublin didn't give up and deserved their draw.
  8. A good clear out wouldn't hurt but a bit like the Canaries people still seem to go to Lynn even if the team is losing every week, doesn't give the promotion a whole lot of incentive to push the boat out on a good team. Jorgensen has been dire since getting his place for 2022, not a good sign.
  9. Get those EF's out of the way before the serious stuff.
  10. You look at Riss' scores for Brum and you wonder if he is actually trying his best for Lynn.
  11. If doubling up disappears then the need for fixed race nights has essentially gone.
  12. Did you guys in the PL have six man teams in 1998 too? We did in the EL with a daft race format that more or less had R/R programmed in which any rider could be nominated into and of course it massively favoured the top heavy teams....Ipswich won the league by miles with a top three of Louis, Rickardsson and Gollob.
  13. Open yes but difficult to see anyone beating Poole over two legs, they are so strong at home and win so many heats making it difficult for teams to pull away from them or catch up once behind. Leicester could match them if all of their riders click at the same time.
  14. But he had least had Championship experience and was an NL number one......
  15. In what universe would Sam Hagon be ready for Premiership speedway next year?
  16. The cynic in me thinks that P'boro have done what they needed to do tonight in terms of averages and will wrap up top spot on Thursday by hook or by crook.
  17. Great ride from Toft. Just a shame its taken so long for the outside line to develop.
  18. This whole 'mates' is getting a bit boring and is a bit disrespectful....the team was obviously built to a budget with little in the way of loan fees, the hope was obviously that riders on low averages would improve and be bargains, they were risks which unfortunately didn't come off. One thing the club can't be criticised for is the willingness to make changes but once anyone any good has been snapped up its then difficult to strengthen. Personally I'd keep all bar Riss and Barker and if those two signings are the right ones it would be a much better team for 2022.
  19. Absolutely, but even though much improved and competitive every match now its still a team that doesn't won meetings. As I've said before I think its only a couple of changes away from a decent side, hopefully they are able to get it right for 2022.
  20. His though is based on half his meetings at Lynn where he is much better than anywhere else.
