If he did has CVS snapped him up now so he can use Nicol in future seasons too. Instead of letting him sign elsewhere and possibly missing out on the chance of signing him in years to come? I think it's a signing that is looking ahead more than just the 2020 season. I think CVS has a plan in place where he wants Becker & Nicol to be the No.1 & No.5 at Wolves in a few years so he didn't want to run the risk of Nicol going elsewhere so he was prepared to build 2.00 points under the limit. I honestly don't see this as a crazy move. I think it could work out very well. Very shrewd forward thinking business decision imo. I still think it’s a decent side, but could have been better by using the extra 2 points. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are going to have good days and bad days It's a big year for Andersen, could possibly be make or break. Last season was a long way below his best which has been really consistent. But every time he got going he was injured again. Maybe he came back too soon from a couple of big crashes. He was riding a week after making a new hole in the back straight fence. If he can get back to anywhere near his best he is a steal on his current average. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hans had some massive crashes last year which would take most riders a long time to get over, in fact some would say he was lucky to be able ride again.He is a rider who wears his heart on his sleeve and gives everything for his club so i would expect a big improvement on his current average after a bad year.

I would of had Hans at Lynn on his average. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So wouldn't worry over this one. Got to a point where even some Poole fans didn't want him at Poole anymore. You wanted him back at Poole last season when you supported them? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
