Love it when clubs just get it over a done with ASAP instead of drip fedding announcements. Fair enough if it's Birmingham because fans of the sport genuinely have no idea about who's lining up for them but everyone else is common knowledge at this point so clubs may as well confirm everything now considering we're already in Mid-November. Fans can get those season tickets then.
-
They've probably read this forum, So no point in holding announcements back.
-
Full team announced tomorrow.
-
Monday Race Nights for King's Lynn as well.
-
Same riders I suggested the other day, I think they'll defo end up with 4 of those.

Extraleague 2025- signings, fixtures and rumours
TTT replied to racers and royals's topic in International World of Speedway
Massive gap in quality next year, Torun have done some good transfer business. Lublin stroll to another title. Torun and Wroclaw in a battle to see who finishes Runner-Up. Gorzow, Grudziadz and Zielona Gora are middle of the road cannon fodder for the three teams above. Czestochowa and Rybnik in a fight to stay up. -
Maybe Worky didn't have a leg to stand on. Stewart can easily sway Cook to Berwick by offering him a team place at Leicester as well.
-
Makes sense and it ticks Stewart's continuity box again. Fricke, Howarth, Douglas, Becker, Masters, C. Cook & Hagon is the only 1-7 that makes sense now. Birmingham miss out on more riders.
-
Not at all, Yesterday I said that I wish them all the best. I just cant picture any rider signing for them if they've got other offers on the table from more stable clubs, Birmingham can easily go under if they hit financial problems at any point next season and riders could be owed money whilst being out of a job, Especially ones who aren't based in the UK that'll spend good money setting up in the UK. Birmingham's just not a stable club and they're only running in the top league because the other option available to them is to shut up shop now, They'll be left with 6 riders that nobody wants.
-
I'm confident that Musielak will be at No.1 As for the No.6, I wonder if they'll go for Wiktor Lampart?
-
Looking like the 1 change from 2024 (Howarth for Lawson) unless Cookie is heading to Oxford.
-
I'm not so sure tbh. Brummies might be in a position of desperation when it comes to signing riders and if he's allowed to return then Morris will probably be desperate to prove himself again and he'll have to grab any opportunity that's offered to him. Would be better taking a chance on a British based rider in Morris rather than going down the Polish route again that could easily become another Pawlicki situation.
-
Mentioned it before but nobody seemed to know at the time, When is Nick Morris ban over? Former Wolves rider and he's ridden for the Brummies in the Championship so he could be a possible option.
-
I agree, Bookies won't be offering any value to be snapped up on Ipswich especially after they've witnessed a full Witches 1-7 dominate this season and that was with a weaker side than the 2025 side. King's Lynn will be the ones to have a little flutter on at the start imo as they'll be overpriced for a rumoured team that looks rock solid, Only team the bookies will rank lower than them will be Birmingham imo.
-
100% BV if he rides in the UK.
-
I wish Birmingham all the best but Tolley's words in the PR are worrying. Using the words Hope and Hoping in regards to team building whilst saying he was going to build the team around Brennan suggests Birmingham are up the creek already.
-
With the Panthers out of action, I think I'm going to buy a season ticket at Ipswich next season. That team is worth every penny to watch on a regular basis, Fair play to the management for assembling one of the best sides we've seen in British Speedway in recent times. The 1-7 has a bit of everything in it, World Champions, A couple of British Champions and a few up and coming Young British riders with one of them having a massive future ahead of him.
-
Fill in the blanks. 1. C. Cook 2. 3. Zischke 4. 5. Batchelor 6. 7.
-
He's not retired, Just nobody wants to overpay for him. I read a Polish article recently that Matej is lowering his demands to try and get a place in the Ekstraliga 2 League. Willing to wave his signing on fee and stuff.
-
Personally I don't worry about Jason because he's dealt with big injuries throughout his entire career and everytime he's come back stronger. I throw the Tai question up because he was declining as a rider before the injury.
-
Assuming KL's rumoured 1-7 is correct and Oxford get what I've got pencilled in for them then I think they'll both make the play-offs tbh, I'm not convinced on Sheffield, Stunning rumoured top three but that tail end is dreadful and it's relying on Picko keeping up the end of season form also will Woffy be the same rider after his injury?
-
No brainer to retain Ellis then. I was using gbspeedway.com GSA's when comparing them but yes I forgot they're rolling averages and not yearly ones.
-
Not just saying this because Rew isn't back but I would've chose Ellis over Rew for three reasons. 1. Ellis ended up with an average of 0.06 less than Rew's and that was with Ellis having to ride as a HL on certain occasions, Whilst Rew's average was attained riding at reserve, Rew was scoring a lot of easy points against weak reserves when taking 6/7 rides a night. 2. Ellis has previously been a solid HL in British Speedway for a good few years and if he clicks and turns the clock back a couple of years then he'll make a mockery of the 5.61 GSA, I can see a points worth of improvement in that. 3. The Tom Brennan signing, Adam is good mates with Tom isn't he? That's a 3 & 4 pairing that really could be dynamite (Assuming King rides at No.2).
-
With Pete Adams involved I think he could rip Leicester's 1-7 to pieces if they haven't actually signed as I think riders like Masters and Douglas would love to team up with Pete again. However if Pete doesn't get involved then it's not looking good brev. (With Pete) 1. Lindgren 8.13 2. S. Worrall 5.69 3. Masters 7.32 4. Douglas 7.30 5. Thorssell 7.33 6. Palm Toft 4.13 or Voulas 4.13 7. Edwards (RS) = 39.90 (Without Pete) I know it's awful! 1. (7.50 Assessed rider?) 2. Sedgmen 4.79 3. S. Worrall 5.69 4. Lampart 4.93 5. Thorssell 7.33 6. Kerr 4.77 7. Edwards (RS)
