So with no news regarding the last 2 riders today is it a sign towards we could be waiting for the 6 point rule to be dropped so Eddie Kennett will be our number 1?

Not sure it would be Kennett,,, but if the rule is dropped, it will open up other opportunities.

Will most decentish number ones not already be set up with Poland etc? Struggling to see who we could use at one if I’m honest.

I think the main aim would be to get a  7.5 rider and over, so we had a big number 1, and not go with Ludde like we did a few years ago. He had an average of 7.15 and he was castigated unfairly for having to be our number 1. Wasn't his fault we built the team that way.

But,,, maybe after being absent for a while, he'll enjoy cheering his hero (possible no.1) on this season ;)

Certainly looks like we are awaiting the outcome of the Kennett/Nicholls thing. Can't see any other reason what the delay would be in naming the other two riders. Like you say ruff, Boomerang won't be a happy bunny if Ludde ends up as our No 1. Thats if he does come back. Like all Boomerangs he should do.

Be interesting to see if Peterborough would include both Kennett and Nicholls then maybe someone like Palm Toft would be available.

Peterborough paper seems to suggest Panthers will have Nicholls and a reserve to complete there line up

Apologies. By the way does your mate dislike Ludde more than Boomerang?

am not sure, but if Ludde is no.1 you could maybe put him down for a season ticket, (if they would sell him one) ;)
