Pointswise with George being on a 4 apparently, we would have just about 6pts (depends on the %age reduction applied to other riders) so the likes of Kyle Newman would fit. Had we gone with Archie on a 2 we could have had someone like Ritchie W. Imagine heats 13 and 15 with a Ritchie and Bradley Dean our representatives. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The way the rumours are going about Richie agreeing to join this team then changing his mind I’m glad we didn’t. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had we gone with Archie on a 2 we could have had someone like Ritchie W. Imagine heats 13 and 15 with a Ritchie and Bradley Dean our representatives. I doubt Richie would have chosen us over Leicester anyway... I am happy with the team we've got so far, a nice 3rd heat leader or number 4 to team up with Starkey will do me... I calculate we have 6.51 left, but see no obvious signings near that average... The only riders I can think of are mid to high 5s, and it would be a shame to waste nearly a whole point... Kyle Newman is the obvious name that springs to mind, but he ain't as strong of a 3rd heat leader as I'd like us to sign... 7 minutes ago, Diamondboy said: Stop having an opinion, you know it’s not allowed. Lol I get the feeling that there's a lot of 'drama' going on behind closed doors up there... What a shame, I thought things were becoming more positive...

Brough Diamond 60 Posted November 18, 2021 Tero is very close to fitting if we have around 6.5 and there are adjustments for the Eastbourne situation. Needs to sort his visa according to other threads 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SSL84 541 Posted November 19, 2021 Don't think the team is much better than this season, IMO bwd will be on par with Barker alot will depend on the new kid. But hope Rob gets the support from the fans. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
