So far all the rumours heard have been correct so the last and possibly most unrealistic was .......Tai Woffenden

Think Rye can expect Kennet, Nilsson & Nicholls as a top 3.

With them all having 9+ averages, it wouldn't leave much for their last 4 riders.

The nearest Premiership track to me will be 209 miles away ☹️

mine is 18440km away, so you have nothing to complain about ;-)

Woffinden has a ''gentleman's agreement'' with Peter Adams that he won't race for anybody else but Wolves in the UK.

 

I assume it's still valid......

Nicholls would be a great signing for Rye House. Had a stinker of a season last year because he couldn't get around his home track (won something like 11 heats I think was the stat I saw quoted this week) but was something like 5th in the away average for the EL. Get him on a track he can ride and he could be something of a Premiership rarity in 2017 as a rider who can up his average in a season where most will struggle to maintain theirs. Rye House should be a track he thrives on, he's a small track specialist. Actually hopeful he's back at Coventry this season but can see how Rye House is actually an ideal location for both him and the club.

 

As for Kim Nilsson, what a weird rider. First time I saw him I sent a text to a mate saying he was a future World Champion. About 3 heats later I thought he'd do well to get out of the PL. And his career has basically seen me change my mind about how good or bad he is every heat I see him race! For me he's a bit of a risk on that sort of figure

Tai I reckon would ride for any team if it suited his schedule and availability.

However he won't ride for anyone for a full season.

Would happily live with that team. No major overseas commitments, and all riders who will go well at home.

Is Kennett on 8.55 thought he finished much higher than that?

Ah yes! 9.27. Back to the drawing board.

Like it, but it'd bankrupt the club Edited by Shads

I'd love to see Tyson Nelson back over here . I know he has his problems but loved watching him and on a 6.06 average in my opinion that would be a steal.Also sure Busk Jacobsen will be in the team as he's an asset and on a handy average also.

 

theres a very good reason why he's not been back over here and probably never will be now
