He regularly turns up late, ill prepared, has to borrow equipment and even a race suit. Often fails to participate in team talks and victory parades. Very unprofessional. Having said all of that more often than not he's our best rider and out performs his average and expectation.
What are the options to replace Thompson? Premiership or Championship rider up to what average?
From 1st June his ave. is 5.06 i think, what does that equate to for a Championship replacement?
So its looking like: Doyle, Rew, King, Ellis, Saifutidinow + A.N.Other (3.84)
Alternatively Doyle, Wojdylo, Brennen, Ellis, Saifutidinow, Rew (39.95) looks so much better. Rew at reserve would be a massive advantage.
Ipswich needed Edwards for a minimum of 4 matches, 2 this past week and 2 next. There’s no guarantee Thompson would be fit for the cup final and rushing him back would have been a risk.
once again sitting on their hands has cost them
Why didn’t the Witches sign him as their RS to replace Thompson? Hawkins had stated they intended to use him for the remaining fixtures so that would have been the obvious move.
