They could put out a NL team and still be top 5 

That's a big IF... 

100% right, no one wants it.

If Witches end up with a poor Team and a poor season their fans can only put the blame on Louis for his poor exit strategies.

Could Doyle be persuaded to do a U-turn? Is Klindt available?  

I’d take Brennan as a number one over Tai. Keep his crappy opinions about Ipswich up north with the other NMs. Ipswich needs to keep riders who feel like they are part of the club and the feel, not people who speak badly of it. Tai and Lidsey can look somewhere else for a ride IMO.
