oh I don't know 

There are just not enough young riders coming through, most ndl teams have riders who are not youngsters anymore. I did say earlier that I would prefer a stronger established number 5 and a weaker reserve which would no doubt be a young brit.  Poole are obviously not against young brits as we have two already in the team.

At least Poole is a nice area for a laal break, speedway is the excuse to go there 😄 yea as a traveling supporter apart from I think 2 meetings, the matches went to a last heat decider, granted non went our way, but worth the journey to support the Comets 🔵⚪🏁

I'd rather have Foord than Loftus, Ingram or Hodder. Less of a step up from being a Champ second string than a reserve. Wouldn't necessarily say Foord is a second string ability, but he'll be more used to tougher races.

I can't remember a dull match last season, some of the racing was top notch, Our biggest issue was getting enough moisture in the track pre meeting.  Once Cookie who is a consistently top trapper like Batch let us down again then we were up against it . We don't rip up the starts by choice, does it make any difference? it's still about 4 riders dropping the clutch and getting to the first bend in front , we were maybe second best at this on too many occasions at Northside last season but that can also add to the racing quality . Apart from Berwick and Poole I thought we were a decent team to watch away last season even with the problems and injuries. We achieved 40 points more often than not which for a travelling supporter can make the journey worthwhile, there is nowt worse than to travel a long way to watch your team get thumped.

Don’t think a GP rider is within our budget.
