  1. Very decent team, can see the reserve berth being a bit of hot potato with a different rider every month where that riders average sky rockets. Can see all but Janowski potentially spending time there - it worked for the Panthers when they won the league in 2021. I'm not a big Janowski fan, but it's good to have him back in UK league racing.
  2. Be interesting to see how Jimmy does at reserve.
  3. Let's be honest... Brummies fans have suffered. Avoiding the 2nd tier wooden spoon & completing their fixtures is an achievement. The signings of Flint & Brennan are a solid start to team.building, have potential to improve and are two riders well known to average Brummies fan. But the next announcement needs to be more exciting, Brummies have a #1 ... be that Laguta, Pawlicki or Lindgren.
  4. Lindgren spent last season (all of it) with Västervik in Elitserien. Didn't he? Think he may have missed the start of one league season (2022 perhaps) in his long career but finished that season missing only the opening 6 fixtures? Lindgren was in his day nighe unbeatable around Monmore, with PB as home track, it's a risk.
  5. Lindgren hasn't ridden in Britain for years, why would he do so once Monmore closed? Not sure he'd maintain a 9 3 average anyway. But zi guess he's a #1. Never rated Wiktor Lampart, was a very good 16 year old but hasn't really progressed in 5 years, easily bullied, tentative when in traffic. Too lightweight.
  6. I think the team building start for the Stars is decent. NKI has all the experience you want & Musielak is a #1. Basso should sky rocket and MPT is solid but coming off two poor seasons. Think KL needs a good second heat leader to keep pressure off the Danes Not sure Tarasenko fits that if he is pencilled in as next signing. Two 6.5ish riders completing the line up hangs Musielak out to dry in 13 & 15. Unlikely as it maybe what's Robert Lamberts average.
  7. Add Sayfutdinov & King to the three announced signings & Ipswich can't have much left can they?
  8. Makes sense, Wright appeared to thoroughly enjoy the Cowley shale at the Championship Pairs.
  9. Zagar can't surely be signed as a #1, I doubt he'd maintain his average attained in 2022 if the NSS isn't is home track. As third heater, he wouldn't be a disastrous signing I wouldn't imagine. At 3 & 4 alongside Brennan I could see them holding their own.
  10. I can't imagine that happening, he has in the past refused to ride Perry Barr until every molecule of shale has been scraped off it.
  11. Brennan wasn't an RS last season so won't be in the coming season.
  12. So let's be having it... Harris, Douglas, Becker, Shlien, Ellis... leaves what points limit wise?
  13. The two times I ventured to Cowley last season were by far the biggest two crowds I had witnessed in domestic British speedway since the 90's. But 3 leagues seems too much.
  14. Maksym Drabik, stays at Częstochowa. Emil Sajfutdinow staying with Torun for 2024 & 2025.
  15. Without knowing any of the young Poles, the Grudziadz top 4 look stronger than their FZG counterparts. You'd think they're probably going to the two teams battling relegation?
  16. No stopping FZG today... Jan Kvech, Przemysław Pawlicki, Rasmus Jensen and Michał Curzytko.
  17. Congratulations Tigers. Sayfutdinov struggled with conditions early & Doyle wasn't brave enough at the end. Pickering is entertainment.
  18. No Huchenbeck and Lebedevs are not as talented on a Speedway bike as Janowski . Jurys out on Kubera. But I think being out the GP's for a season may give Janowski the kick up the proverbial he needs. No one will remember how many followers you have on Social Media, having a World Championship puts a rider in the history books
  19. By finishing 5th in the GP Challenge? Thought if riders qualified through finishing top 6 (Vaculik & Lambert) the GP challenge qualification didn't filter down beyond the top 3. I don't think current GP riders should be allowed in the challenge. Correct. Competed in no 2012 GP's, scored 2 points in one appearance in 2011. Still think Kołodziej is ignored every year, always right near the top of the Ekstraliga averages. Janowski has been appalling this year, glad he's not been picked.
