I think they're very overrated tbh with a lot of question marks to answer. Cook has committment issues and he can't seem to ride any Away Track that's not named the NSS, One minor crash and it could be deja vu when it comes to Leszno. Kvech hasn't improved as a Rider anywhere over the last few years and has gone backwards, Maybe he's reached his peak? I like Paco Castagna but he's quite the journeyman imo and his great personality mostly covers that up tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted Sunday at 10:47 AM Report Share Posted Sunday at 10:47 AM Out of the 4 Confirmed Teams. 1. Sheffield (Strong Spearhead, Second Strings who've yet to reach their peak and are likely to improve again, Etheridge is much better than his 3.00 GSA who was riding with an injury when signed last season) 2. Belle Vue (Needs drastic improvement from Blodorn & Zischke imo but Kurtz/Bewley put up so many points so it's hard to see them outside of the play-offs) 3. Leicester (Huge potential throughout the Team imo, Loyal Riders to British Speedway who will all turn up every week, The Top 5 are all capable of increasing starting GSA's imo) 4. King's Lynn (It's a better side than what they've had in previous years granted but who in the Top 5 is actually going to increase their starting GSA? I don't see where the improvement is but that's just my opinion) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we keep being ignored, prefer it that way! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PotteringAround Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago 1. Sheffield - Decent top 3. (Though C Holder on the slide a bit). Need Rowe to perform as last season, and Flint to bring his reserve form into the main body. 2. Belle Vue - Powerhouse top two. If the younger members can keep improving, they have a chance. 3. King's Lynn - Best side for years, but feel more like individuals than a team. If they all fire, they'll be hard to beat. 4. Leicester - Solid enough, but might be lacking in heats 13 & 15 against the above 5. Ipswich - Unless they sign a big name, having Brennan at No.1 is a tough ask. Will be solid throughout, and if the rumour of getting a heat leader like Thorssell on a reserves average is true, it will boost them. 6. Northampton - Unless they have something special up their sleeves it could be Lidsey, Wright, Lawson as top 3. Enough riders out there to build a strength in depth team, but not play-off winners.
