On paper that's as good as any team in the prem , the last remaining rider , do we go for the ever reliable Ulrich ? Or do we venture abroad and unearth an overseas gem ? , I'm not sure what overseas averages are nowadays on new comers though... ?

Tero Aarnio could do a decent job but is probably too busy with Scunthorpe and continental meetings.

Agree and Tero would do a brilliant job or what about Nikolaj Busk Jakobsen as another who would fit

Reliable how? He's now a sub 6 point 2nd tier rider

I'd have Ulrich over the likes of Barker, Lasse & Garrity every day of the week. He turns up every match and busts a gut every time.

Iversen said no so why is he now in your team 

My theory is ( no substance) that NKI always wanted to ride for us but not with Carl as manager. Rob Lyons becomes manager and deal done in days.

He didn't exactly pull up many trees the last time he rode for us in the Championship.

Was thinking same thing. Far as im aware Rob and NKI have a good relationship. Carl just comes across as very arrogant

NKI is also a very honest and alround decent guy, dont think he would be to keen of Carl after his antics a few years back.

My theory, having listened to what he has said (previously) and what I have read a few times over the winter, is that the logistics of riding in the British, Swedish, Polish and Danish leagues coupled with the GP’s meant it took a bit of sorting out.

Not going into details on here but few seasons back whe he apparently stepped down as team manager "due to family and work" wasnt the true story...
