He just has to look at him and Jason, last season just over half a point separated them whereas now, having gone to separate teams, it’s nearly three points. The wage demands he’s been used to to recently won’t stack up with The Aces but if he sees the bigger picture and he gets offered the opportunity I think we can all agree it’s a no brainer.

Sounds like we may lose Norick, Zak and Tate. Really think keeping at least Norick and Tate would be preferable given the tiem invested in them. Don't think zischke is worth the risk on his relavity high average, and not the best gater for many away tracks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinker Posted 6 hours ago Report Share Posted 6 hours ago Would much prefer Zach to Ben Cook. Zach has really improved over the last couple of years and I sometimes find myself questioning Ben's comitment. Zach seems a better team man.

siggysigalos Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago Tom isn't at Belle Vue, but Ben Cook could be, that i certainly can't comment on. Whatever i'm sure as every season Belle Vue will be strong with their usual top 2. I get the Lidsey comments, but i also think he is in elsewhere. As so many are saying, we are guessing, well most of us are guessing, as we don't know how many teams are coming to tapes yet, but Phil is right, if we go to 8 teams, where are the 14 extra riders coming from??

Agree. Probably have to adopt the Danish format with 6 Man Teams to get around it as well as limiting Heat Leaders to an x amount per team in order to share them around?

With nearly half of the top nine riders being Belle Vue 2026 riders, I can see us having to release lads once again to bolster our opponents.

Zach has really improved over the last couple of years and I sometimes find myself questioning Ben's comitment. Zach seems a better team man. I agree but I also think Zach is in the same boat as Musielak now where he's maxed out his GSA tbh (7.35) I can see Zach spending a year at King's Lynn or Northampton if the points limit isn't 40.00 as I don't see how the Aces can fit both Cook's as well as Kurtz/Bewley in a 38 limit for example. After Bewley's reduction the 4 riders come to 31.75. Edited 3 hours ago by TTT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After Bewley's reduction the 4 riders come to 31.75. Would happily take Zach at Lynn if he was solely coming in to be 3rd heat leader, in a 1-7 similar to below: 1. Max Fricke - 8.27 2. Tom Brennan - 5.76 3. Zach Cook - 7.35 4. Luke Becker - 6.88 5. Robert Lambert - 7.80 6. Cooper Rushen - any U21 7. Jody Scott - UK U21 Total - 36.06 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denmark is 5 man teams over 14 heats if I remember rightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
