Doubts about Leicester when they won't even move away from Sat to fit any overdue fixtures in for the Champ, so can't see them moving away from Sat for a full season! But will wait and see what happens with interest. If no Edinburgh next season then could have 8 in one league and 7 in the other. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhilTheAce 498 Posted September 28, 2022 Leicester are moving up. there will be 7 teams unless Glasgow can be persuaded. Which depends on whether Edinburgh race next year or not Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arnieg 3,647 Posted September 28, 2022 Leicester? Really, been there done that. Given crowds are often better on Saturdays for the Championship than Mondays in the Premiership were I just can't see it.* * Unless Damian Bates is selling up to someone very gullible or with very deep pockets.

Falcon1983 557 Posted September 28, 2022 Leicester and Glasgow moving up Glasgow favourites to sign Bewley also once they confirm after current championship play offs are completed. Bewley, Cook, Basso nailed on 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Col 854 Posted September 28, 2022 (edited) Kurtz, Wright, Brennan, Blodorn... will be back. If Kemp or Flint are available as RS I'd take one, only ones that have done anything at NSS to suggest they are worth signing. Mountain has been Ok but must be too old now. Fricke has been disappointing for me, Zagar has been good but is getting on. If Aces can get Bewley back, he'd be the one to excite. See who fits after that. Wouldn't touch Etheridge with a barge pole. Fail to see what he has to offer. Edited September 28, 2022 by Col Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhilTheAce 498 Posted September 29, 2022 Since my post yesterday about the team I’ve heard a few whispers. And one being forget Kurtz. He’s going elsewhere. So not sure which way we will head. Maybe make a sneaky bid for bargain average riders like Douglas with dan being on such a high average Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
