Yes, and I don't know his fitness situation or if he's still eligible for RS but not been signed yet by anyone

No more videos please. Not original and damn annoying. So last year.

It's way better than announcing it in the local paper at 6am on a Thursday morning. Fair enough the videos could be a bit more interesting or creative, but they're far more on trend than a boring article.

Would have gone for Dan myself... especially in the aggregate bonus point era we're now in, he could rack up some decent scores at home, assuming he can also get a PL spot, as his lack of track time last season seemed to effect him quite badly

You've confused me, do you mean Champ spot?

If Dan T wanted to race for Leicester, I would have had him in a heartbeat, maybe he wanted to be loyal to Ipswich after Leicester dropped him?

I mean we don't know who our rising star is yet but seems likely its Joe. Nothing against the kid but that seems a huge gamble

I wouldn't call it a huge gamble, just a weak signing (sorry Joe)

To be fair if Dan chose Ipswich, there isn't much choice out there

Who instead though?

He's the weakest of the seven but also his signing makes sense.

If I was Dan and Ipswich wanted me, it wouldn't have been a difficult decision (as you mention).

Leicester dropped him last year so the same thing could have happened next year. I would also take racing with two of the top riders in the league as you are going to learn from them.
