The air fence had to come down as there will be a new one for the season and the kickboards are in the process of being painted . Was good to see a few new volunteers there with most of the regulars. Any photos like the ones from Workington yesterday? Getting plenty of social media attention and positivity just from a few photos of them starting to lay some shale doing some work at Workington. Any updates on the 5th rider nearly 2 weeks now since he had the fixture list to see any clashes etc. What about riders 6 and 7 ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GiveusaB 1,145 Posted January 27, 2022 According to LR's latest statement, the next 2 signings are close....fitting in and around Polish/Danish commitments is what's causing the delay? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Promising update from LR yesterday regarding 2 of the 3 remaining possible signings. Plenty of time to go yet and sit and see who is available in a month or so when it will be a buyers market as demands for silly money turn to panic about not having a team place! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's what I first thought...but Roger's mentions it in his latest statement, so I'm just making assumptions (as usual) I think your shout about 'Kelleher' could be right though? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure what's been said about him.....but if its anything to do with a reaction to being dropped by Poole after just 5 meetings, then you can't hold that against him? I don't know much about him , but he's keen and with Jason Crump as a mentor he can't be that bad? May be he'll end up at Oxford when they dump one of their reserves?

He's not exactly young though, think he's 29 next week. I'd imagine if he were going to change he would have done so by now. Who knows 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
