  1. Would he be though given Plymouth signed Pederson and Crump in the same season ?
  2. What about Gusts seems suited to big fast tracks
  3. I would imagine a lot of Lynn, and Peterborough fans made the trip over for the final.
  4. Your forgetting the usual three week breaks every month in the peak summer months , fear not the most lucrative play offs meetings will still be run back end of October when its back down to 7-8 degrees at night and the rain is back.
  5. Given only five teams and lord knows who Ipswich and Sheff will get to ride for them its probably not a bad shout.
  6. If they both return one will have to elsewhere or your going to have the witches go from champs to having Rambo Lambo and Jack Smith as the spearhead.
  7. Agreed but they would need a decent league sponsor to cover the flights in and out, but it is something that could potentially work well for all three countries and ideally if 6 & 7 protected to home grown youngsters could help develop the next generation to negate current polish dominance.
  8. Harris (Captain), Nicholls & Lawson as the heat leaders.
  9. sounds promising i'm thinking could it be Lambo to ipswich
  10. You seem in the know Flagrag is there any hope you have heard about in the current sea of darkness for the premier league ?
  11. Lord knows what the teams will look like I would imagine most of the top boys have already bailed, so I can't really see anything beyond a championship looking side but built to the equivalent of a 45 point limit in the championship. As Mike BV has said its most likely going to 99% of the same riders who are in the championship populating the teams but with an extra heat leader.
  12. Unless they have convinced Nigel to give Northampton a go he's the only person in Speedway who could probably afford to drop 100k on it to get the sport through to 2027 when hopefully even the prem promoters will be forced to take a different direction. I did like the press release saying "a unique set of circumstances" when it should really have read "a dreadful state of circumstances" have to give them credit for trying to keep it going but they need to realise it just isn't working in the current state and a risk is going to have to be taken at some point to turn it around.
  13. Can you imagine it Harry as the new Clarkeson's farm, day one would be Harry sitting at his desk trying to figure out the rule book, asking the camera man if he know's Chris Harris mobile number, trying to tie up a deal with Laguta who want's a 5k guarantee per home match but doesn't fancy away meetings. Someone comes in to say the men's loos are blocked again and they need a wooden prop to hold the roof up, the weather doesn't look to sharp he better nip down to the old pit gate and start looking at it very carefully whilst on camera. Harry on the tractor going round every couple of laps there could be 3-4 seasons in this against the backdrop of trying to make a profit backed by Amazon's trillions.
  14. Are they all chucking in £50 each to get the deal over the line ?
  15. As we have said before what are you buying other than the equipment and the air fence which can't be more than 10-20k .
  16. I was thinking that Smith seems to have been around longer than Rambo Lambo
  17. If you can get a decent reserve in like that Kilma (think that's him) on a 4 but who more likely will be a 6 point man when dialed in you won't lose many matches at home. I do wonder if that young yank Slater Lightcap could be worth a go at Plymouth.
  18. He will be in arm chair dozing off and on the odd times he's awake will be telling anyone within earshot how ---- they are and how great he is.
  19. Agreed Dean back then even the top riders in the old national league filled reserve berths in the top league as number 8's and most struggled big time even against the normal top league reserves as you say even though Simmo was near the end of his career he blitzed that league with his feet pretty much up whilst smoking a cigar.
  20. Spot on Bagpuss as ever the key is having a rider come in on false average and Poole have not one but two young lads who will be prime examples of this. Then so long as the top five are half decent you will be there or there abouts. Well Poole have one of the best riders in this league , Zach Cook if back should really push on and Gilkes if he stays injury free has potential as well. Final point the Fords don't also hang around if they are struggling at the halfway stage.
