Pirates Of Poole 761 Posted December 9, 2022 Howarth now confirmed as number 1. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
torpointfanatic22 268 Posted December 9, 2022 Not a shock by any account and a top rider, entertaining and never gives up. Really good signing! My only concern is what we do at the bottom end. With Barker an obvious signing it would make the total 28.68 for the top four, leaving just 11.32 for three riders. I fear we may end up too weak at the bottom end, lets see what's next.

I posted a confused emoji because you said so far but i knew more than the riders you named had agreed terms but if it makes you feel happy crack on. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was surprised he said that don’t think he’s ever been at no1 for any substantial period for me he’s a 2nd heat leader in this league the no1 riders are Masters,Harris,Lawson not Howarth…..
