Just had a listen.

So, it’s Doyle plus ‘one of the top six in the world’. Does that definition encompass Bewley? I suppose it does if you look at it over two years but, on a narrower definition it covers Lambert, Zmarzlik, Jepsen Jensen, Dudek and Madsen. I haven’t included Kurtz as I can’t believe that he will be anywhere other than Belle Vue.

King will be back and Hurry remains as the Team Manager.

It’s Bewley.

1 Doyle

2

3 King

4

5 Bewley

6 Cairns

7

Fill in the blanks.

Looking a very good team the worry though is if Richard with Guys financial muscle couldn't get any of the other big hitters back to the UK it doesn't bode well for other UK teams caveat I would rather have Dan as he's young and exciting rider but if a seventh team comes up you think who the hell will they get ditto Lynn and Northampton.

It is a concern I agree and I was hoping we’d get new top riders over to compliment the ones we already have, but it doesn’t look like it’ll happen unless Lambert bites the bullet and comes back over and we’ll need to see how that plays out.

You might see a couple come back over below that elite bracket though.

Surprised Bewley going to Ipswich has he is still based in Cumbria when in England.

Obviously money talks but I am also shocked Belle Vue don’t want him back.

Wroclaw agreement.

It's not Artem.

If he was talking about Artem, he would have said top 3 in the world, not top 6.

What's the point of this Wroclaw agreement if you can't sign their best rider?

Mayfield disappoints.

Still unsure whether this is a parody account or whether you are a 🤡 who has run away from the circus...

Looking good. Possible down sides approx 9.50 for 2 remaining riders team could be top heavy. Doyle and king 41 and 40 could take an age related dip in form and Bewley coming back from injury might find British tighter tracks more difficult than Polish tracks. Apart from that play off certs. If belle vue cannot win the league i hope it is you as your team has a look off a Belle vue team about it. lol.

Think Dan is more based in Poland, does return to Cumbria to visit family and mountain bike, but also does motoX all over the country/ Europe as seen on socials, also had / has a girlfriend who's dad is big in speedway

Dan is also friends with Guy’s son Jake and they do motocross together down at Jake’s track. There’s another Ipswich link, not just a Wroclaw one.

Nilsson is the key imo because the rules do say 4.50 and he'll easily finish anywhere between the 5.75-6.25 mark imo.

Would anyone be tempted to run with a No.4 around the 6.00 mark and then go with someone like Jason Edwards or Joe Thompson @ No.2 with a view to Cairns moving out of reserve after the first set of averages?

Any reason nobody's trying to tempt Throssell given he is rumored to be on a crazy low average if Lynn or Northampton don't end up with a number one it would make the need to get him in the team a shoe in I would have though could he start at reserve or would the new rules prohibit that ?

So is the only reason for the Wroclaw deal to get Bewley? I thought it was going to help get the u21 rider over to Ipswich, not just poach Cairns from BV as the u21 - if you go from the rumours and suggested teams in this thread.

IF we’ve signed Cairns we haven’t “poached” him from anyone. He’s currently out of contract (unless he’s signed one for 2027).
