TTT

Will get ugly for the Lions imo.

Yes considering they knew that the meeting wasn't going ahead because of the track conditions from last weeks weather.

LMAO! Put out social media posts just after 2:00 PM promoting tomorrow's meeting. Put out more social media posts just before 5:00 PM postponing tomorrow's meeting. This is one for Speedway Shambles on X/Twitter.

Could be a cricket score.

Someone in the top 5 would have to be sacrificed even though they've done nothing wrong due to the Numbers game. In order to give the team a better balance I'd bring in Riss for starters because he looked back to his old self in the Charles Wright meeting, 2023 can be brushed under the carpet imo because he clearly wasn't anywhere near fit enough to ride a bike. Then I'd look at one of the following two S. Lambert who always seems to do a decent job as a No.6 whenever KL snap him up or I'd look at bringing Sedgmen back even though he tailed off a bit towards the end of the last season because he was very good up until that point. Kemp's not cut out to carry Joe Thompson, He doesn't have the temperament for it imo, The toys go out of the pram when things don't go right so the Lions need an experienced No.6 who can put in consistent scores in order to compensate for Joe Thompson's 0 or 1 every night.

Ipswich by at least 10 points.

I'm not convinced by them now personally, I thought the would get away with having weak reserves pre-season with the jury being out on that but when you need a super heat to beat Birmingham then it's alarming tbh especially when take into account what happened tonight with Oxford not even needing Janowski to go a dozen points up at PB.

My thought's exactly. Putting up 15+1 at reserve tonight and Brum still managed to be 12 points behind at one stage which says it all really.

I wish Birmingham all the very best but they're in big trouble now, Losing Nicholls is massive as he's been a great signing.

Brum are in big trouble once Nicholls departs tonight.

Leicester like Sheffield don't have any reserves. Long season ahead for the Lions unless changes are made.

Birmingham getting battered at Home to a weakened Oxford just proves how weak this years Sheffield team are considering they needed a super heat to beat them last week. Lots of value in the outright market that's worth grabbing whilst Sheffield will still be installed as title favourites.

I don't even think they'll make the play-offs without a change or two tbh. Those reserves are just too weak for this years strong Premiership, They basically need a firing on all cylinders Chris Holder to compensate for the weak reserves and I just cant see it happening at his age.

Early in the season but alarm bells were ringing at Birmingham when it comes to Sheffield. The team is unbalanced and it's going nowhere this season with those reserves, Gilkes has to get himself fixed up with a Championship club.

Why on earth would the higher ups place Oxford to ride on a date where they wouldn't have a No.1?

Ipswich will walk it imo, Jenkins @ 2 is beneficial because it gives Rew more rides at reserve plus the real Adam Ellis is back this season.

Ipswich by 20+, Milik and Lampart will struggle.

KL to win this by 10+, They've built a team of riders that are very strong around the AFA.

Oh, I've already chucked the towel in on tonight's handicap lol.

It is early but racking up L's against teams who aren't even fancied for the play-offs is a cause for concern imo. Home form alone won't see teams into the play-offs this year because almost everyone will go unbeaten at Home.

Bad loss that bet. Not sure what to make of the Tigers this year now tbh, More than alarming to be 10 points down after 4 Heats to a Brummies side that's built way under the limit.

SHEFFIELD -4.0 @ 10/11 and the Hcap Tie @ 10/1 This Handicap is a gift imo.

Plymouth will go under if they sign Garrity, People will legit walk away and Plymouth cant afford that to happen. Unfortunately for them I don't see another option unless they want to sign a rider like Ben Morley and just accept getting battered every week with the threat of fans walking away. Worrying times for the Gladiators, Hope everything works out well for you.

5-4 on the night (Small Profit) Basically the Lidsey losses back from the Craven meeting. I'll take that considering it's always iffy early in the season due to rustiness and the weather. Hope you all had some winners tonight.

Oxford will be a very dangerous side when Janowski gets dialled in. Wright and Bomber have hit the ground running.
