What on earth are you on about?? Stop making stuff up. Quote me the post where I said Poole should sign Ellis? ? You won't find it is the answer. Personally I'd rather have Ellis than someone like Bjerre or Batchelor or Watt or Schlein and that's not for Poole to sign, that an unbiased point if we had the chance to sign any of those 5 riders I'd prefer Ellis who is very much on the up unlike the other 4. I don't hate Poole but it's convenient for biased fans to use that line when debating anything Poole related. I guess that shows the narrow point of view you can debate with. Any rider who has done well that's finds himself out of a job at that club is going to feel harshly treated but it seems if you are Poole you can't point that out without attacking their club. Every rider is on an inflated average who rode EL this season. So everyone of those riders is unlikely to achieve that mark. And if you really think that Batchelor is on a bargain average good luck to you. Why do you think I prefer that wolves would sign Ellis over Batchelor? Nothing to do with Poole by the way, no doubt you will conveniently ignore that part as you continue on your blue tint way. Conveniently ignored by Gater1 who yet again makes most things up.

That's what the haters say yes. But wrong obviously.

It just gives the kind of result I would expect.

I'm not quite sure how to put this to you in a way you might understand but as of yet we haven't declared any riders for 2017. as for signing British riders and helping them develop..... you must have forgot the double world champion. easy mistake to make I guess. loving the sympathy. Fair play CR another anomaly with no common sense applied. Part of me hopes he rewards Leicester by staying but on his average he must be a likely at his parent club.

As expected yet another anomaly exploited by a promotion. Brady started the season as a declared EL rider and not a PL rider. He is lucky that he did double up later in the season otherwise he would be saddled with an average that be difficult to get a place with. Still, it's great news the new rules look after an Aussie and potentially penalise a Brit tho eh?

Yes 7.17 from 2014 with Somerset. Victor might be worth a gamble as well, has experience of Swedish top flight.

The sides you suggest do have an even look about them I agree. However I doubt a team would be built that poorly in the top flight (watch me be shown up on that one!). Everyone says how poor Leicester were this year yet beat the PL runners up Sheffield home AND away in inter league challenges earlier in the season. I will still maintain nothing will be different in 2017!

Hopefully some club will take a chance. He had a brilliant season. Fully understand why he is worried but he really should have been in the PL not the NL. I'm sure some clubs might be considering using him. I'd welcome him at Wolves. Depends how the team is built, lots of riders on 7's and 8's.

Every season we have the same topic brought up and it's often the same outcome if inter league matches happen. No doubt we will revisit this when the championship team get stuffed home and away in the relegation meetings.

I think it's clear what I'm saying. A 2nd tier team won't beat a 1st team tier.

If his Polish and Swedish teams aren't in contention of course.

Plus of course the number one is a no go. And that's even less likely now with the cut off date of 31st July .

Is that an 8 man team?

Tai I reckon would ride for any team if it suited his schedule and availability. However he won't ride for anyone for a full season.

On his PL average he must be being considered?

Disagree. Teams are built 10 points higher in the top league. Comfortable top flight wins home and away.

As usual there is the claim that teams strengths are much more even over the 2 leagues. The outcome will always be the same. The top level team is always much stronger than the lower level one. The worst top level team will still beat the best of the lower level.

Have I really just read a team with Woffy included? :rofl:

in the domain of the PL were it should have started in the first place. I put that very question to CVS at the talk in and he suggested that if the weather was an issue then it would affect all clubs and leagues. But we already know that gerhards are already cost effective with way less spent on tuning and the like. Great move to try and make our league also more cost effective.

gotta say I pretty much agree. I fail to see why Ellis choose the NL instead of the PL but I think he would have done pretty well as its clear riding NL hasn't held back his progress. Sadly we will never know what his PL average would have been. But when you compare it to other EDR PL averages it seems fair. Perhaps you think Ellis should be a 2 point average because he doesn't have a PL average maybe? Compare his current average to the other EDR PL averages and I think it's fair. Ellis proved this season he can hold his own in the EL. I'd be happy if Wolves signed him personally. You obviously don't feel he is good enough to be in the starting 1-5 on that average (or is that more to do with Poole not being able to use him and Kyle again?).

I hope Freddie is back, particularly if the league is looking to use gerhard engines as Freddie is already well advanced.

I'd be convinced Adam will get an EL place next year, he has more than proved his worth. Just wish he had taken the tougher route of PL over NL tho. Either way it hasn't hindered him.

We will find out end of week.

The strongest league.

But they are still running.
