Can't whack a couple of points on someone's assessed average purely based on them having a great night in a one off meeting. It's the GP qualifying criteria that's silly because any half decent rider is capable of having a good night on the bike to a point where they find themselves in the GP's. Nilsson has been riding in the lowest Polish tier for Landshut along with riders like Leon Flint, Erik Riss, Charles Wright. Other riders in that League are Thorsell, Masters, Lahti and co. which is British engine room standard.

Riss or Kemp? Both are risks, if you take aside the illness then I'm sure 99 out of 100 you pick Riss and the 1 is Kemps mother. If it is Rissk then as mentioned on here you have to have a back up plan in your team No matter how happy people were to see Danny back I'd have gone with Brennan over Danny, if Nilsson is a 4.5 then yes, and would have allowed for a much stronger rider over Riss/Kemp etc.

I do really like this team however not sure about Erik Riss. I do feel sorry for him about his illness but at the end of the day it is a big risk factor for Ipswich. Drew Kemp is a much better, younger pick.

With around 6 to play with, he’s probably the most reliable option, good team rider, experienced. I agree it’s not an exciting signing and I’d rather young rider who could really push on like Mcdiamid or a rider new to the league

It’s a sad state when we’re all debating what average Kim comes back on. I said it before if it’s Nilsson I’ll be disappointed, a 36 year old who hasn’t riden in the uk for 10 years & rode in the polish 3rd tier last year. Same with Riss Not the exciting box office youngster we were expecting. Colemans interview hinted at a couple of star under 21 riders hopefully Carines & the other will be in place of Nilsson/Riss in the suggested line up. Still time for Rushen to move over the border.

wherever it is they might have to pay him £100 a point though.
