He will be on the lowest criteria for a yank in the Premiership, as his last stint in this country wasn't a success. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He'd be on an assessed 4.00 ave, but didn't average over that for Scunthorpe last he was here, so wouldn't advise signing him for a Prem team spot! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You have always struck me as a sensible and knowledgeable poster and backs riders with more riders with more than just words (like Kemps 6k engine) but i fear this latest involvement may be quite a folly.

I don't have a problem with him being in the Ipswich line up,,, but on a more realistic average of 6. I don't see the point of having a rider that will clearly drop his average by possibly a quarter. As already said though,,, it may all be about bums on seats. Or maybe he will be somewhere else. It's actually not bad thing. Swindon did it with Jason Doyle a few years back when he was given a 13 average. Once the new averages come into effect then you can make team changes and still have Jason on a more realistic average and it will make the team stronger. Plus, you'll still have the pleasure of watching a legend riding in the team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted January 25, 2021 We have 6 riders already (assuming that Drew is the Rising Star) The Witches need a 6th rider to complete the team BUT the other 5 are over the points limit, so which one of Crump, King, Klindt, Allen and Heeps will be released and then another rider will be needed to replace them.....
