Very quiet on here - wouldve thought there would be some delight at the Bates announcement Perhaps it's just that you're embarrassed he is even an option...........

Looks like there are 6 criteria but you only have to fit 1 to qualify.....

I would be disappointed if it turned out that he was despite Bates being the best available on the list from a likely points scoring point of view Him being on the list though is wrong and picking him would show a lack of integrity For me integrity is at least equal to winning.....

You can keep Bates and we will stick with Drew thanks 10am Tuesday 16th seems to be favourite for the announcement (all teams in one go as per previous statement)

Whoooosh

Sad news - RIP Olle

Well if Bates fits as a rising star then reassessment to 3 so Woffy can be his reserve partner is on the cards

I'm seeing rumours of Woffy in at Sheffield - perhaps he could double up.....

Only slightly less than their ages

What's left once Woofy is added???

If you look at his results in Aus he has been there and thereabouts without looking dominating so I'd say your caution as to expectations are justified The Witches have form for signing a No1 who then drops a point or 2 off their average so it's the most likely outcome

Crump will be doubling up with Plymouth

Chill Ray - just a little light hearted banter

Yes far too nice for Poole Good luck Danyon - no one deserves a great season more

That's exactly what I stated!!

Better than going for the bald look...

Yes that's certainly a problem for him.......

None in the PL In the CL there is a different team building limit for the main team dependant on the star grade used (and a 4☆ cant be used in the CL as part of the initiative)

If he doesnt it shows he is seriously on the wain..... A big disappointment as a Witch only showing what we expected to see regularly 2 or 3 times the whole season

If as seems 99% certain both end up at Ipswich then it makes no difference as fits whichever way round Has more impact in CL as 4☆ rating prevents riding in that league as part of the scheme

Because they would be having rides against each other and also against the likes of Josh who should be in the 2 or 6 positions as well as getting a go at those at the next level up again

I think you're missing the point - the rising stars arent necessarily meant to be at EL (sic) level as yet where as Bates certainly in the scheme of the 2021 set up is He should have a place in the top league on merit but not as a rising star

WWE has more sporting credibility than speedway when it comes to situations like this.....

Set at 85 to avoid any possible need to test the rule....
