Sandhu's statement is due tomorrow

Rumoured to be staying at Belle Vue. He is very passionate about the Aces so would be surprised if it wasn't true.

AJ has confirmed he isn't riding in the UK next year

Clegg is a very good signing. 18.57 left for the final 3 riders so looking good. Will Masters be added

Unless Swindon are going with 2 NL 2pointers at reserve, they already have their 3 heatleaders in Doyle, Morris & Ellis. Rye house look much stronger than us in the top 5 although most of the riders in their main team can be inconsistent. However they will be weak at reserve with Branford and only 3pts left for the final rider. If a rider gets injured and needs replacing during the meeting they have a weak reserve pairing. Coventry's team is very weak in comparison to Poole. However I don't think we will be the only ones.

Can you tell me the full line up for all the teams in the league then for you to know they are the 3 weakest line ups? Fricke is at Belle Vue

Know Bates average is correct

Thanks 👍🏻

Which averages are wrong as this adds up to more than 50? BEES 1. Danny King* 9.57 2. Jason Garrity* 8.55 3. Kenneth Bjerre. 8.22 4. Lewis Kerr*. 6.59 5. Lasse Bjerre. 6.64 6. James Sarjeant* 5.80

That's what I noticed and why haven't changed the amount left. Does anybody know which is incorrect? Edit: Kerr's in wrong. It's 5.98

Woryna has said he's Still looking for a team in UK, any help is much appreciated! Surprised we didn't have him instead of Kerr

So the very weak rumoured team is true. Money saving rather than play off ambition. A team made up of reserves but we will be left weak at reserve when Sarjeant & Kerr both end up there as both have gone backwards. I'm really not sure on how Sarjeant gets in the team every year. Although it looks like we might not have a stadium to race in soon

Team of reserves again 😞 Looks like we won't have a stadium to race in anyway next year

He was in talks with Coventry last year but then when King was confirmed as being in the heatleader list, Coventry told him they could no longer accommodate him. That's when Wolves signed him

I doubt a team would be being announced this week if that was the case. Also why would they waste a whole week promoting Coventry Bees at the motorcycle live event Somebody on Twitter had replied to a similar post and said the floodlights that were meant to be removed were actually on this week so might have been for maintenance

Fingers crossed it happens 🙏🏼

Can't expect big crowds then.

Rye house look strong also

12.15 now left for the final 3 riders

It proves even with inflated averages, strong teams can be made. Poole have formed a very competitive team and our strongly rumoured team would be eaten alive. Imagine likely teams: Kaspazak, J Holder, Kurtz, Newman, Andersen, Klindt, Shanes AGAINST King, Kerr, Garrity, L Bjerre, K Bjerre, Bates, Sarjeant Would be a repeat of last year with not enough heat leaders and too many reserve like riders. Sarjeant was dreadful away from home and scored a lot of 0s. With this format he would strengthen us and Kerr definitely wouldn't in the top 5. We need a good top 5 so Bates stays at reserve

A very good side. Great number one in KK Can't see many people getting near this team. Would take some brilliant team building from those yet to announce riders.

I thought they rode mainly on Sundays? Coventry would get priority anyway as a EL asset.

I agree. The riders we have signed so far look good. Add another head leader type rider plus Garrity and that would work well. 20.55 left for 3 riders. Who do people hope to see now signed?

Think you are going to be disappointed 😕

Looking okay at the moment. If we add Garrity, Rory & Ayres or Garrity, JK & a 2pt like Perks, then it would look really good. Most 2nd reserves will only get 3 rides. However if we add Garrity, and another 2 reserve riders in Kerr & Sarjeant (as strongly rumoured) then we will be bottom of table. Good to hear 7 out of 9 clubs all wanted Bates and yet he stayed with us. 👍🏻
