Freddie has already said so on social media himself last week.

Bizarrely yes apparently so.

Every other team will breath a sigh of relief knowing KK hasn't signed for them.

Tai would have ridden for any of the top 4 in 2016 if Wolves couldn't fit him in. He has made his allegiance to his parent club time and time again. Any other team would have been 2nd choice. Pawlicki would be back at Wolves if the TV was there and averages not increased. Poole were never likely to sign him either way.

That's the odd thing about the averages. Can't see why they didn't stick with using 1 average again. Would make more sense. But of course this is British speedway so it's never going to be sensible.

The 2nd division is always going to be way weaker than the top flight. Last year was the weakest top flight in history yet still the 2nd tier best got thumped by easily the weakest top flight team. Every season we hear the same thing. Truth is the 2nd tier is still much weaker than the top tier and it's nearly a certainty that 2018 will be the weakest top flight ever!

Of course it's strange, why don't you think it's strange? ? Teams are starting to be built yet still the BSPA can't do the simple of putting out averages for team building, particularly for those who missed out on 2017. How difficult is it to see that. Please don't put words into my mouth. My post is very clear.

Can't say it's a very inspiring line up but looks like our promoters are turning their noses up at a TV deal which is sad to say the least. Heeps impressed me this season at Wolves and beat Freddie if I remember right? Our reserves sadly look poor.

Their averages aren't similar, there is nearly a point between them.

What on earth on you blithering on about? Why are you trolling my name when I'm not even in the conversation. Mind numbing. Edit... I wonder when they are going to confirm the averages for those returning to the UK for 2018?? Strange that there is no confirmation from the BSPA

Makes it clear that he was interested in coming back to the UK as I previously indicated. It seems he was heading back to his parent club until the ridiculous reassess some but not others apparent ruling. MF would be interested in a rider on a false average, like any promoter would I'd say.

Your telling a Swindon fan on a Swindon thread to go away?? Priceless.

How many GP's did MJJ ride in? If Piotr is reassessed 9 then so should MJJ and Lindback etc.

It's never happened before that GP riders missing a year out get reassessed. Getting it yet? It should be a straight forward rule but it isn't. Just WHO qualifies as a GP rider? 2018?? 2017?? Before?? As per usual the rules are ambiguous. Certainly the impression I got from CVS was that all riders missing this year would be reassessed. If you were there you may have or have not come to same conclusion. He mentioned the averages for team building were yet to be agreed due to returning riders for 2018. You clearly don't get it, your Poole blindness is masking the bigger picture. If you are going to reassess some riders then reassess them all or none at all!! Everyone wants a fair and transparent rule which the way you suggest isn't. I couldn't care less who it affects or doesn't affect. The BSPA have made a rule that penalises some riders and clubs and not others. So of course it isn't a fair rule, which is evident to everyone.

Can you provide me the link that confirms non 2017 riders won't be reassessed? There is a reason why team building averages haven't been released yet. There is no link to 2018 team building averages for a reason. You may be right, but you don't have a link that confirms those averages. Because someone has their blue tints on. You can be sure Shov would be disagreeing if any other club was signing Milik or Lebedevs on their old average.

Likewise, where did you see the rule that it's only GP riders being reassessed? In your head? The GP assessed 9 point rule came from my report from the Wolves talk in by CVS, it's since then that it's appeared in the public domain. It was mentioned that riders not riding here in 2017 will be reassessed. Just post the link that proves your right. Mine was from a talk in witnessed by a hundred odd people, yours? You have it in your head that it won't apply to ALL riders. I've asked you 3 times to provide a link. I've already made mine clear. Link?

Hopefully common sense will prevail that ALL riders not riding here in 2017 will be reassessed. The fact that they aren't listed yet seems to indicate they are yet to decide.

Sadly a Poole fan will only see the wrong in this if a rival team signed a ringer. Just when you thought the "riders not riding here in 2017 will be reassessed" was a fair and transparent one.

If you have a link that proves this please? Nothing published or released by the BSPA. It's absolutely the wrong thing to do to reassess some but not others. The BSPA will have made a huge mistake if they are allowing this. I'm surprised you are in favour of this? hopefully Poole will sign Lebedevs, Milik and Woryna to prove what a joke that will make the rules.

As is usual the fans are left in the dark. That's what's to worry about.No wonder people are getting sick of this cloak and dagger approach. We all want fairness and transparency from the rules. Why haven't the BSPA released the team building averages so the fans can see them too?? Doesn't make sense at all unless there is some skulduggery going on behind the scenes.

That hasn't been made clear yet. I hope it isn't that tho. No one wants ringers in their teams, not even Poole fans. Knowing the BSPA anything is possible sadly. Hopefully commonsense will prevail.

Depends which rules we are talking about. If it's to do with averages I hope any returnees not here in 2017 are reassessed As they should be for whoever they sign for.We hardly know any rules yet.

It's not been released yet.

the thread was closed because of that last week. Some people never learn. Exactly. CVS has the right idea. Buying assets is a waste of time because riders will ride where they want to anyway.

Back in the real world nobody is right or wrong. More seem to be in favour of the 3 improving than not so best leave it there.
