Yes I think my screenshot was taken before all 20 heats were complete. Anyone who was at the P&P got anything to share on the riders, who looked good, who looked bad. Is george Congreve and lee Complin ready for the league etc. BWD gonna be good at number 1? Hope James and Paul can improve from their scunthorpe performance, granted it was the first meeting back. Matty at 2 is strange to me but very strong, but is that granty realising that Brad isn't an out and out number 1??? Any info would be interesting to find out

Sneddon was a very strong reserve though? Brilliant rider and fox wasnt half bad either on occasions

Of course Jye and Kyle are better than all 3 pairs of reserves I quoted and they most certainly have not been 'forgotten about' not by me anyway, but that's not the point I'm trying to make, I'm not deciding the strongest reserve partnership in the league because that is obviously Jye Etheridge and Kyle Bickley Or James Pearson and Stefan Nielsen at Birmingham (If this Pearson lad is as good as everyone says he is). The point I was trying to make in my original post is who has the strongest reserves out of the teams likely to make the playoff finals ( which imo is) Leicester, Glasgow and Poole. And I think Leicester's reserves are just as good if not better than Glasgow and Poole. Because the poster I quoted said Leicester's reserves aren't strong enough to win the playoff finals... Which if they come up against Poole or Glasgow, they very well are. Also, Newcastle do look very weak, I have as much faith in the lads as possible and I shall support them all the way through this season, but if we're being realistic on this predictions thread, I don't see them above the bottom 2 at all, if we don't finish bottom, I'll be happy (given the circumstances over the winter, I'm not being a miserable speedway fan ) I shall think about and post my league predictions once every team names all their riders

I think the Worralls (Mainly Steve) was mutual, as I think their careers were getting a bit stale at Belle Vue and they needed a change (again mostly Steve)

Just as strong, if not stronger than Poole and Glasgow imo... Thompson twin(s)/Rowe Kemp/Ablitt Bailey/Hume All pretty like for like...

Plymouth last and Birmingham below Newcastle and Berwick in the playoffs... What you smokin?

Very sorry to everyone for having to post these all individually, but it keeps telling me about maximum file sizes if I try to post more than one together and there seems to be a time limit to what I can post as if I try to post one after another the same message appears, and I have no idea how to get around it. Anyway, here is the next one Hope George turns out to be a real find, or else we may struggle this year...

Not the best start for our 2 Diamonds tonight, hope this isn't a bad omen for the season

I think that would make his entire year if they got put up in the pits haha... Replacing the old pictures of him in his Peterborough kevlars with pictures from tomorrow's P&P in the new team colours etc...

If only this was a real thing, would be great way to get to kids for the sport

My little cousin made these for all the riders. He made a couple when the first few riders were announced and now he's finished them off. What does everyone think? I would love to upload all 7 but apparently there is a maximum file size allowed to be posted. How annoying, even when I try to upload them on separate posts. Here is Bradley's though I think he's done great, it's a Graphic design project he's doing for his GCSEs

Must be Adam Ellis after Plymouth's news about losing a Premiership rider to another Championship team

Wonder if that is the answer to the riding order then? Or if that's just the riding order for this meeting. Matty at 2 is interesting. Looking forward to the first meeting back

Wow I didnt know that. Another set back for the promotion but new pits is never a bad thing, are they laid out the same as the old ones? Looking forward to seeing the new improvements anyone got any idea on the riding order for the new season, I'd personally go. 1. Bradley Wilson Dean 2. Max Clegg 3. James Wright 4. Matty Wethers 5. Paul Starke 6. Lee Complin 7. George Congreve Time to get excited for the new season!!

Has there been some stadium work over the winter like?

Any ideas who the final signing will be and when he'll be announced? Is it going to be Willie?

I'd love to see Matej Zagar back racing in Britain... More than most other riders in the world...

That is the complete opposite of what I'm trying to say... 14/15, they're nearly adults... 8/9 is when all they want to do is run around and play... If your kid does that at the speedway, take them to the park, they clearly don't want to watch the racing!!

We are talking about 14/15 year olds here... Not 8/9.

Should be... Reserving judgement... Hmmm. Have you just given away that it IS Andzejs signing?

Could be worse. At least he's not putting the kevlars back on

Chris Bambury

Nope, hence why I've gone off the radar recently, until March/April Just come on occasionally to see if any actual interesting news has been announced.

I'm bored with the Poole thread, I'm bored with this thread, all the threads at the time of year between announcements and the start of the season just turn into lots of people arguing with eachother, what's the point, it's how people lose interest
