  1. Always was a strange choice by Glasgow to take on Chessell after such a long injury lay-off. Even stranger for Stoke to keep saying he’s taking a break from the sport, when he’s not he’s just on a 28 day ban!
  2. I hope no-one turns up on the 20th Seriously though it should be a good match up as Plymouth have gone very well at Smallbrook in recent years and track several former Warriors. But Wood & Morley will have the edge over the Wilson, Stoneman & Campos but it looks tight elsewhere.
  3. And so it begins. They’ve already ran a relatively successful meeting this season so what’s this needed track work all about?!
  4. I too thought Ipswich would have a preseason plan to bring Kemp in sooner rather than later. But they’re picking up decent scores lately almost solely down to 2 excellent reserves so I don’t think they would want to change that now.
  5. Yeah the other squad member has to be about who would go better in Russia if needed. Harris has the experience and has had a decent start to the season and is a better bet there than Worrall. He’s still unlikely to ride though unless Tai or Cook get injured.
  6. Correct 3 for GB. No Hancock? Novratil over Wells? Kostigovs over Puodzuks or Bogdanovs?
  7. Wait until the NL Pairs go on into the night...
  8. A win here and a point at Redcar and it’s a possibility for the Scorpions. Hopefully the rain holds off.
  9. Coles seems to be one of them riders who has ‘potential’ year after year but never really lives up to it. But you have random ones like Starke who was in a similar situation and did make a breakthrough.
  10. Very harsh if it’s just the highest points total in 2nd place as that excludes the 3 team group! Points average would be fairer than that. Was the points average used last season?
  11. How do they decide the best placed 2nd finisher in the shield? Use average points, discount points against the bottom placed team or something else?
  12. Peter Ljung? The Swedes have better than him.
  13. Quick predictions thread! 1. Who can you see being the 4 play-off teams? 2. Who will be league winners? 3. Who will end the season with the highest average? 4. Who will increase their average the most? 5. Will the NL Fours & NL Pairs run?
  14. With 3 of the hottest young prospects in Bickley, Flint & Palin all in the same team it’s going to be an exciting season at the NSS. I can see many more teams getting hit for 60+.
  15. I do like Kelsey but him and MacDonald are polar opposites in terms of reliability and commitment.
  16. Free admission to every club’s season ticket holders for the upcoming British U21 Semi.
  17. Heathens will start off alright but when they both drop to reserve I don’t hold much hope.
  18. What are the new parking restrictions?
  19. 1. Max Clegg 8.63 2. Rob Ledwith 3.50 3. Jason Edwards 6.73 4. Luke Priest 4.99 5. Danyon Hume 8.10 6. Dan Gilkes 2.00 7. Dan Thompson 2.00 Total: 35.95
  20. It’s back! Same rules apply as previous years and as apply to the promoters. So build a team upto 36 points and the highest end of the season average wins. Only x2 2.00 men allowed remember and only 2 riders from each club are allowed in your team. Previous results were: 2018: 1st Hunters, 2nd SKJ & 3rd CUFC_Brummie 2017: 1st Eagles69, 2nd Islander15 & 3rd SKJ 2016: 1st Halifax Tiger, 2nd John Leslie, 3rd Turn Two
  21. It still seems a very unfortunate situation to have been heaped on Palovaara’s door! Worrall is a genuine number 1 and the Diamonds now have a decent top 3 to match and better most sides. However it’s an awfully long tail. I can see changes at the bottom end ahead with 4 reserves in that team now.
