Imagine that's correct, a deal in principle, how many times before the start of the season have we seen a promoter not continue with a 'signed' rider because the points limit wasn't as high as thought or to be honest a better rider appear in the frame and have to juggle the team to accommodate him.

That's true and why riders may agree, but it means nothing till they sign That's why you see riders moving just before season starts sometimes 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HGould 2,213 Posted November 17, 2021 Lawson signed for Sheffield in 2020 but moved before riding for them due to various rumours. Happens regularly like with Richie Worrall at Edinburgh. Garry May is never short of contacts or options. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ghosty 500 Posted November 17, 2021 What are Gary May's team plans now that Richard Lawson has jumped ship & Eddie Kennett's average was mis calculated (so we are told). Next signing might be Mark Phillip's "nephew". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

torpointfanatic22 268 Posted November 18, 2021 So has Lawson jumped ship then or not? Is Garry May still going to be at Plymouth next season? If Kennett is number 1, can Plymouth seriously be better than the bottom 3 again? I find it unbelievable that neither promotion has said anything. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If that's the case maybe Plymouth are having strength in depth? Well Poole aren't announcing any signings til Dec apparently. So that leaves Plymouth. Maybe they will say something when they have a replacement? If the Polish press was correct of course. They always seem to be though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
