Richie is giving an update to MF before the 28th.  As DF and Middlo have both stated there is no easy (or cheap?) replacement available within Richie's average which would improve things. There may be a lower averaged rider that could mean Nico going to 2, which isn't ideal either!

Ok thanks for that but he can come back after the 28th as he has been injured, is that correct? I see THJ is getting some reasonable scores lately, could be an option. Just can't see r/r being a good option for the play offs.

Correct.  For any foreign rider to come over now its the costs of air fares, mechanics, vans in addition to points money/guarantees that make it prohibitive at the moment.

Ok thanks possibly Josh Auty maybe best option from the championship but as you said earlier that would mean Covatti riding at 2.

If he gets the work visa then I guess he'll be back for Poole - depending on what the league set-up, race days and points limits are for next season?!

Also it will depend on what reduction on his 7.16 average MF or DF can negotiate?!;):rolleyes::t:

They staying then are they? I thought Matt was definitely selling after this season? :unsure:

Says on the Swindon away preview that they 'haven't completely ruled out' replacing Richie in time for the playoffs. 

R/r is okay as long as no one else gets injured during a meeting, then you're screwed! Esp if it is a reserve..

I see on Facebook that THJ is advertising himself to ride in the UK for the rest of the season, would he fit?
