BELLE Vue Colts have confirmed their starting line-up for the new National League campaign.
Five riders have been retained from last season's squad in Jordan Palin, Kyle Bickley, Connor Bailey, Ben Woodhull and Ben Rathbone. Harry McGurk (pictured) moves to the National Speedway Stadium from the defunct Cradley team this year, and Paul Bowen is back in the ranks after missing the whole of 2019 because of injury. Co-boss Graham Goodwin said: "We're very happy. The team we've managed to assemble is a solid one. "Obviously, we were gutted to lose Leon (Flint) and Danny (Phillips), but this is a numbers game and we're sure with their skills it won't be long before they are snapped up, and we wish them both well. "We're delighted to have brought back five of last year's seven riders, though. On the whole, we've got a strong side with riders who want to be part of this club and we're very much looking forward to working with them in the New Year."
