Berwick probably edge it for me with the potential in Jensen, Edinburgh, Scunthorpe, Ipswich and Sheffield also have decent reserves. We have 2 young up coming Brits, who on paper aren't the strongest, but potential wise, could add a point each to there averages.

Looking forward to the visits of Sheffield at the EOES, should be belters! But IMO shouldn't change riding orders for riding at home and away, you'll get no consistency with the riders, just stick with the 1-7 home and away.

Premier Shield: Workington Premier League Play-Offs: Peterborough First Place (at end of regular season): Workington Premier League Cup: Scunthorpe Premier League KO Cup: Ipswich Premier League Riders Championship: Ryan Fisher Premier League Pairs: Ipswich Premier League Fours: Peterborough Finally, The Wooden Spoon! Plymouth

I'm looking forward now to the season ahead, season ticket purchased for the first time in a few years, and planning away trips already as looking forward to getting to tracks never been too. Crowds will be up, and the racing will improve IMO, so whats not to like? I think our future lies in the Elite League, BUT for the time being, lets enjoy what we have, and who were sharing it with. Up the Premier League

Wonder what our riding order will be, IMO will be: Fish Blackbird Ulrich Lasse Ales Jacobs Greenwood I'd keep Lasse and Fish away from eachother in 13, as that could be interesting battle of the fence line!

Wont be restaged now I wouldn't of thought. Now to wait till P+P

The amount of freeloaders come the end of last season was beyond a joke, more cars inside the tracks grounds than outside, that needs to change this season IMO.

Lawson and Bach?

Doyle and Morris

Scunny, Panthers, Workington and Berwick IMO and whoever from there as too close to call.

Very happy with the team tbh. From starting last, could we of asked for a better side realistically? All the riders apart from Fisher could easily improve their starting averages. Fisher - 9.52 > 9.00 Blackbird - 4.81 < 5.50 Ostergaard - 6.52 < 7.50 Lasse - 7.44 < 8.25 Ales - 7.52 < 8.50 Jacobs - 3.44 < 4.50 Greenwood - 3.00 < 4.00 I think there quite realistic looking at last season, and the home form, should be a successful season ahead touch wood.

Hall was brilliant for the 2nd half of the season, for that one season, yes. But recently he has been on a decline, injuries and just general poor form. IF we did sign Hall, it would be a waste of points as well.

I personally think Hall would not retain his average, we can do a lot better, and be a real force away from home with someone other than Richard. Someone like Ales or Kauko... I mean a top 4 of: Fisher, Lasse, Kauko and Ostergaard will score well around the majority of tracks.

Darcy would of been higher up in the GP's without the injury, and that would of improved his league form.

Best rider in the world is the world champion.... but between the leagues.... Between Niels, Darcy and Tai IMO. But I'd go Darcy at a push but nothing between them.

IF Richard Hall is signed, then all the hard work done so far, is ruined.

Numbers are done PURELY for selling merchandise surely? As they do it all the time in motogp etc.

I do try my hardest.

Well we have the best improver, but what loses the titles for you, is that rider who should be scoring better than he should.... who will be the most disappointing rider this season? Doesn't have to be just a big loss in his average, but maybe not making the strides he should? I think Ostergaard for Panthers personally, and think that Mark Lemon and Eddy Kennett aswell. A nice cheerful thread ahead

Yes we have 7.77 left.

No point in even thinking about signing a rider from Swindon with the whole Morris fiasco going on.

See..... I'd prefer Ales Dryml to Lahti, rather have Kauko though.

Come on Neil, whens our 7th being announced, were all eager to know

Agreed.... 12.50 for the meeting, programme and parking for the season, its brilliant value, and could be cheaper with further qualification in the cups.

Don't get me wrong Blupanther, I love Fish...... but on a 9.5 average, I'd rather of had Morris on a 8.9 average, and then would of had 8.50 for last rider, but I guess doesn't matter now, as that's in the ideal world.
