Don't be absurd. Our sport is on the ropes and any fan worth their salt would be delighted that a well-resourced and stable club is securing at least its immediate future.

That would be quite an impressive line up plenty of depth to that team and having Jeppesen or Howarth at reserve will provide a strong reserve all season.

I’d assume they’d do that when all the riders are announced 

Adam Ellis is definitely in the team then!

Yes

1986 - in the British League the Stars won only two away matches (Reading and Swindon), and lost all at home.  They had won two and drawn two at home in the League Cup, but lost all away.  85, 86, and 87 were three consecutive Wooden Spoons for the Deadbeets. Kevin Brice was one of those remarkable riders who kept going whatever happened.  At Foxhall we called him Binary Brice because his score chart was often just ones and noughts 🙂
