TTT

Personally I think NKI is a lock as he's Busters go to guy in British Speedway when looking for a HL and I think Basso will have to ride at 3 even though he should be at 4. I'm 50/50 between Nicki Pedersen & Chris Holder for the last HL role despite the majority being 100% on Chris Holder. (Not saying they're wrong as they're more than likely right) I'd be 100% on Chris Holder being in too if Buster wasn't at the club, It's just that KL situation a few years back that was a big deal and not your usual silly little thing where everything is water under the bridge within a week or two..

Fingers crossed the club gives us something concrete to discuss in the morning, At the moment it's all he said, she said stuff. I'll laugh if the 1-7 does contain Andersen & Worrall though because it'll be funny to see how the club try and spin things after talking us up all winter.

At least your fans know what they're paying for when buying a season ticket though.

Tbf Haaland is a tap in merchant lol. Harry Kane is the best Striker in English Football.

Yep. I just want it over and done with now tbh.

I honestly don't think he's in I just find it odd that he's not bothered to ride in other one off meetings at Poole like Middlo's Testimonial and Darcy's benefit meeting just to name a couple yet he's turning up for Steve Worrall's Testimonial when he barely knows the guy.

Might get some news tomorrow considering it's Speedway Star Day.

True.

NKI

We've got a full 1-7 signed, Confirmed by Tomalin on the radio. I think Tungate is in that 1-7 as well because he's still cheaper than say Nicki Pedersen, Patryk Dudek etc.

Not if our rumoured top two of NKI/Holder is correct because no team (Using linked/rumoured riders only) gets anywhere close to the points limit involving Hans to a point where it doesn't tie in with Tomalin's comments. Tomalin saying we have to make the play-offs with the team we've put together is a strong statement imo, Basically saying anything less than a play-off spot in 2023 is straight up failure. Having said all of that I could see Hans in a 1-7 if our No.1 isn't NKI as rumoured because you can build a 1-7 that gets close to the limit then that also ties in with Tomalin's comments. Something like. 1. Dudek (Pricey 6k but up for it), Nicki P (Pricey 3.5k but up for it), Rasmus (Would have to do a full U-Turn), Bjerre (Would have to do a full U-Turn too) 2. Andersen 3. C. Holder 4. Basso 5. NKI 6. B. Cook 7. Jenkins (RS)

Say Tungate is out just for the sake of it, then this 1-7 would be possible if Lindback is up for a Premiership campaign. 1. NKI 2. R. Worrall 3. Lindback 4. Basso 5. C. Holder 6. B. Cook 7. Jenkins (RS)

Tomalin -> We have to make the play offs with the team we've put together. In other words if we don't make the play-offs then we've underachieved. I agree with flappy's side because everything points towards that being the 1-7 but I'm not entirely ruling out a wildcard / surprise signing either.

R. Worrall as the 6.61 and that will be the 1-7 imo.

He was.

I'm not ruling it out because it's certainly a left field announcement for Stevie's testimonial imo.

That's why I've come up with the very long shot team manager theory purely because I cant build a competitive 1-7 featuring Andersen and other riders who've been linked with us this winter that ties in with Tomalin's comments. Tomalin has gone public again today saying we must make the play-offs with the team we've put together and to me that doesn't sound like the 1-7 side that's 2.30 under the limit because everybody knows it's got no chance of even being in contention for a play-off spot (Wooden spoon guaranteed)

Also liking social media posts saying that we've moved the Dads Army Legends on though which suggests Hans has gone too.

I don't know tbh, Lindback was mentioned on the Ipswich thread a few weeks back though. I'm just putting 2 and 2 together though.

He'd be a 7.00, I don't think he's at Panthers but I just found it interesting that he's riding in a Testimonial for a rider he doesn't have any kind of connection with. Could be at Ipswich though imo.

Have Lindback and Steve Worrall ever ridden in the same 1-7 because I cant recall that happening tbh? If they haven't then it's really odd that Lindback is riding in Steve's Testimonial imo. Could be down to Lindback wanting to get a few laps in on a British track ahead of the new Premiership season (Key word could)

I thought that was interesting too. Very weird how he's going to ride in Steve Worrall's testimonial when they barely know each other.

Me neither, We know for sure that 7 riders have put pen to paper now because we've heard that from the horses mouth as the saying goes. Therefore I honestly don't think Tomalin would be still be talking about play-offs if we were left way short of the points limit having to go with a 1-7 that nobody really wanted on the management side of things either. To me Tomalin's comments scream NKI, R. Worrall, Basso, Tungate, C. Holder, B. Cook & Jenkins.

That was mentioned in the club press release last week so it has to be that one imo.

Exactly why the 1-7 on here cant be correct.
