6.26 with Wolves in 2016 is latest average I can find.
-
One thing that stopped me getting a season ticket at Birmingham was that atrocious injury hit season they endured. 2008 I think, the team were so entertaining with Legault & Roynon but neither of them (& a few other riders) could stay fit. So it was Jason Lyons, Craig Watson, Lee Smart, three guests and R/R seemingly every week from then on.
-
I can only just remember Michael Lee. I certainly don't remember seeing Peter Collins race, just being told Cradley's Phil (who I watched weekly) would never be as good as his brother. That's why I mix them up.

Would the Dryml's oust any of the pairings mentioned? Nobody has picked a winner yet.
-
Duh! Amended.
-
Pick a winner. Just thinking off the top of my head, riders I have seen. May have missed a few obvious. USA - Shawn & Kelly Moran. GB - Peter & Les Collins. Sweden - Peter Karlsson & Mikael Max. Aus - Chris & Jack Holder. Pol - Pawlicki's, I can spell Piotr I'm not attempting his elder brother. Rus - Grigory & Artem Laguta. Den - Nicki & Ronni Pedersen.

Attained an average of 0.00! A little harsh as it looks like he did 4 meetings and only had two rides in one of those meetings. Guessing he was replaced by the #8 after his first outing most of the time.
-
That is certainly more realistic, good luck to him getting a spot, British riders for whatever reason tend to not get team spots in that league.
-
Ellis wasn't exactly impressive in his odd outing for Gorzow though was he?
-
Because it's a ride in the top tier of British Speedway?
-
Grajczonek & B Kurtz (not as a number 1) are worth a punt. Don't touch either Holder would be my advice. The optimist in me hopes for: Vaculik, Howarth, King, Grajczonek, B Kurtz, Nicol, Kemp. No idea what that adds up to. Too late.

Who are your top five riders in 2019.

So wasn't me or did a silly exclusion for this years next big thing cost Glasgow the title? Hmmmmm? -
Congratulations Lions, deserved. Best team I saw visit Perry Barr by s long way.
-
Similar rumours suggest full transfer to Wolves, doubling up with Eastbourne.
-
Slim possibility Vaculik will give UK racing another punt with the same promotion who he agreed to ride for previously?

Birmingham Brummies 2020
Col replied to ProudtobeaBrummie's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I hope not, immensely frustrating unless he has stopped trying to jump the start every heat. Fairly certain from what people have posted that the septet will be Chris Harris, Jason Garrity, Tero Aarnio, James Shanes, Ashley Morris, Tobias Thomsen & Paco Castagna assuming the points limit is 42.5 -

Not that it matters much but who are Hume's "parent" club? -

Bacon is 5.2ish average wise. I only saw Hume once. He was quick but erratic, I'd take that over Agertoft very slow but steady & Castagna's less slow but clamped to the inside unless forced off it. -

My short term predictions are better than my long term predictions. Both hold more merit than your Wolves/CVS/Adams blind faith optimism. -

Loan fees are probably nothing compared to airfares, obviously don't know if Castagna, Aarnio & Thomsen plan to base themselves in the UK in 2020. -

Aarnio's average is 6.85 so he fits with a 42.5 limit. I never saw Tobias Thomsen ride for Brummies so can't comment. Is he really more of a prospect than Danyon Hume who's average is 3.27. Hume is two years younger. -
Pedersen was at Arlington in 2003 & 2007 but not 2008. Crump called Kirkmanshulme Lane is home track during all 3 of his World Championship winning years, that was certainly not a large track.
