But if Hans is getting seven rides at reserve and scoring big points someone else won't be scoring (injury, poor form etc) so the overall additional cost isn't excessive 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My point is that we should be trying to get a potential heat leader rather than Nicholls, who was just rubbish for the Panthers last year. Josh Auty? really.. Don't we have 6.2sh to play with, and what's being British got to do with anything. I want to cheer on riders who really try, not ones that give up after 2 laps. Krzysztof never ever gave up. Which is why I wouldn't criticise Oystercard either, even though others on here seem to dislike him as much as I dislike Nicholls. I'm also too fat to wear cool shirts or marry devastatingly beautiful women.. you seen Auty ride he never gives up and always gives 100% Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arch Stanton 2,255 Posted February 23, 2020 8 minutes ago, Panthers99 said: Be criminal if that's true with the points left Nicholls would be a superb reserve. If these two complete the team it’s a play off team IMO. I’d even fancy you getting victories at Foxhall with Nicholls getting 7 rides. As long as he’s replacing Harris 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That team would have a bit of a Dad’s Army feel about it but still looks better than at least three other sides to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
