Mikey mate, if that ends up being your team I really feel for you and your fellow Devils fans. May well be ok at home like last season but there'll be all manner of hidings on the road again.

Its a typically average looking Rye team, but for those who have moaned about the lack of racers in recent seasons the additions of Bunyan and Garrity should crank up the entertainment levels. A bit of improvement in those two and Nelson also.

So who to believe regarding finances at the Foxhole.....Mr Snack who has been involved in speedway admin and has a balanced viewpoint, or aljack who is a self confessed Louis hater, plucks figures from the sky and doesn't seem to know his arse from his elbow? Hmmm thass a tough one

I was thinking more along the lines of flying them in and out of the UK. I'll go with what you say though as you know a lot more about the ins and outs of speedway promotion than me I'd imagine.

I can't imagine the Poles came cheap however poor they were.

I don't really see what relevance a short spell twelve years ago in a different league on a different shaped track has I don't think you'll sign Tom because he is past his best and not really good value on his current average. Thats all that matters really.

*and Neil Vatcher

We won't produce a Holder, Ward or Heeps over here until we get regular, structured and organised speedway racing and training for kids long before they are old enough to ride NL. Phil Morris are working their backsides off with the limited infrastructure they have but until the authorities invest we'll be behind the likes of Poland, Aus, Sweden and Denmark.

Now thats a mouth watering prospect

More fool them then!

Ignore the word painting in there, that'll be the predictive text

Lol, I'm painting probably the most laid back and calm person you could meet

No need for a deep breath, just a bit of speculative fun before the AGM. Even if Morris' average increases by that much it would still leave over seven points for the last spot in my theoretical line up. Exciting times indeed at the Foxhole.

A team that solid wouldn't need a top drawer number one though, and by the end of the season I can see Morris being one of the top four or five in the league so whoever started at 1 in that hypothetical team probably wouldn't end up there. If the two Aussie lads at reserve lived up to their billing you could in theory see Risager and Poole at reserve after the first new set of green sheets, quite a scary thought.

8.36 even And I used a calculator!

Heeps 3.00 Tungate 5.00 Doolan 7.36 Poole 6.53 Risager 6.26 Morris 5.99 Under a 42.5 limit that leaves 10.36 for a number one

Heeps and Tungate starting at reserve? Wow. Reluctant to talk Ippo up too much after this season but thats quite a start to team building if Tungate signs too.

I believe that too, Lasse needs to develop his gating but he is much better from the back already.

Its been suggested that Kenny would prefer him to ride somewhere different so he can be his own man........

I imagine it will appear here tomorrow.

Anyone ever seen duffyscouse and Radio 5's Stuart Hall in the same room

Bit of a generalisation there although I'm pretty sure I know which team and fan you are talking about

Wow, what a mini comeback by Scunfield after Mildy's comeback! Sounds like a tremendous meeting, well done to all involved

Such a shame that the Scunfield lads have frozen a bit on the day all credit to the Fen Tigers though.

Wow, well done Scunfield, particularly Stefan
