IainB

he was crap

2 number 1's from the 2 teams that finished bottom and bottom but one... and Jake Allen has a 4 point average for a reason

Surely Scott Nicholls & Connor Mountain would have been the obvious choices, Nicholls seems to have elected for Poland though and I'm still scratching my head at the omission of Mountain

Hope I'm proven wrong but Allen is hardly one for the future and only seems to have gone backwards in the last few years and nearly didn't come back one year, so you have to question his commitment/ambition I don't know if something has gone on behind the scenes but Mountain has hardly figured for Leicester since being signed in 2018

I don't really remember any specific performances but I do remember him riding like a heat leader one week and then a reserve the next... you never really knew what you were going to get. Didn't he go on to be a successful engine tuner under the guise of Finn Rune Jensen?

I'm still trying to forget them!

The Saudi's

Johnny "the trouser" Boulger?

Ty The Proctologist Proctor?

I understand why they do it, liquidising their assets, just has a finality about it. I'm guessing Leicester were keen to get on with their "improvements"

Just speaking how he comes across to me. Don't want negativity from your Captain

Not sure you can quantify it in points on an average, but there's no doubt he's worth points in the pits, especially when the chips are down. Still the only rider to Captain the Lions to a league title... I'd too have him back in a heartbeat, it seems a no brainer to me

If they don't... they shouldn't be captain, simple

Not sure what you mean by these days? I think they should be as they always have been, Inspirational, set an example to the other riders in the team, be available for advice, be a link between the riders and management etc.

It's baffling that he's decided to sit the PL out... for how long who knows. I would have thought that having Leicester as a home track would have suited him down to the ground

Well I suppose if Pete Adams selected him that's quite an endorsement

Not sure he's captain material... seems a bit moany whenever he's interviewed, I suppose the obvious choice is Bomber but, much as I love him, he's a bit of a mercenary these days. There's no other obvious choice really

Our Captain has signed for Sheffield... no surprise there really, I wonder who will get the armband now?

The only "bargain" averages are those riders that started their careers here and then ditched the BL and made their names and became better riders on the continent and would come back on their old averages, or maybe riders with assessed averages. Riders with poor averages because they've had a crap season are not bargains imo

He's on a bargain average for a reason

He did score 9 in the pay off final at Leicester though

2 out of 7 ain't bad Expect to see Dan sign, so 3

If it was about the speedway engine, which it isn't, there's absolutely no reason to go electric, just like in other motorsports, the carbon footprint of the actual race itself is barely worth registering in the grand scheme of things, the only reason other motorsports have gone/ are going electric is to attract the motor industry money... which speedway has never had to worry about. We are never going to live in a world without oil, we just need to source alternatives for the mass users to enable the rest of the planet to use oil where practicable

I think it's called Greenwashing

Was that Lemo's minder entering stage right at the end? Who is he? Kept seeing him on the TV coverage
