I’m aware they’re the same age, but realistically do you think if Iversen was at reserve like Harris was he would’ve been banging in the same number of points? 

Absolutely, yes.

100% Iversen would have done way better away from home than Harris at No6 too.

I just personally can’t see he would’ve done.

Don’t think Harris could’ve done a lot more:

11+1 (5) @ Oxford

3+1 (4) @BV (a track he has always maintained he doesn’t like)

11+2 (7) @ Sheffield

Averaged 6.25 from his away meetings 

17+1 (6) vs Oxford 

14+3 (7) vs BV

16+2 (7) vs Leicester 

9 (4) vs Oxford 

Averaged 9.33 from his home meetings 

Combined average @ no.6 - 8.1

 According to SpeedwayGB, Harris has averaged 4.21 away from his 4 meetings and 7.82 from 4 at home ,for an 8 meeting average of 6.15 this season so far. Up to and including 19th/5.?

This was from his time purely at no. 6 and includes the two K/O cup matches against Oxford

GP Rider at reserve you couldn't make it up 🤔

I guess you could say he's a reserve because of his ability & a GP rider because of his nationality.

Obviously he wouldn't be a reserve in most teams, whoever moves to 6 in the Lynn team would be a second string elsewhere.

But much more was expected of him, however he should score a bundle from reserve!

Having watched Ben’s interview on BSN last night, I’m getting some serious doubts whether he will be back in Stars colours this season. I can see something similar happening like it did with Pickering a couple of seasons ago, and Belle Vue managing to find a way to declare him in their 1-7

I have the same thoughts about Ben  unfortunately - also with Leicester winning at Ipswich last night I’d say play offs are fast becoming a distant dream for the Stars the Ko is our best chance of silverware especially with Ipswich injury problems

I'm finding it hard how people think Ben won't be back based on that interview last night,unless I didn't see the whole interview that was on Facebook.

Probably because he really didn't sound that keen to get back.It could just be his mannerisms ,or how he is but he didn't sound keen to get back and I don't think he actually mentioned the stars once. I hope I'm wrong

I just automatically fear the worst now, given what has happened in the last 3 seasons:

Jakobsen - 2023

Laguta - 2023

Pickering - 2023

Musielak - 2024

Tarasenko - 2024

Appreciate Ben will put Leszno first (understandably), just hope they don’t try and put the block on him. Assume he has to ride in the UK anyway given he’s living in Poole and his visa situation.
