Almost right - no rider full stop - not just reserves -
Jarek a Polish licence and at least £5k a meeting more than we could afford Huckenbeck I thought had ruled out Britain in favour of concentrating continental commitments

Any Premiership rider brought in has to British upto 6.84 (converted 8.90 available) or average under 6 if not British (7.8 converted) I dont think there are any British riders left that fit the criteria and any non Brit is giving up at least a point from the team building total Guests and even r/r seems better on the face of it unless theres something small and fluffy lurking in someones headgear......

Nah - Im more than happy with the point Ive made I'll leave you to your fantasy world of attracting back the stars with the shirt buttons available -
The granting of said facility would be the breaking of the rules Going back to my previous example of a team wanting to track a team totalling 42.51 - if the MC were to sanction it would you regard that as not breaking the rules? How about a double change using the combined average of the 2 riders rather than coming back under the limit. Thats not within the rules but hey lets just get the MC to sanction it..... problem solved

Isnt the addition at home 5% (actually I see your calculation is 5%) However I dont think it applies to reserves -
Poole of course have had control of the situation by choosing to sign and retain a rider on a Polish licence - just the same as where clubs have had to deal with the Denmark situation The regs re any facility or not should therefore be followed - to not do so is just plain wrong What next - a club wants to sign a rider but it takes them to 42.51. Should that club just say "Dont penalise us - he wasnt riding for us when he scored those points so it was outside our control" Sounds ridiculous? Yes it does - but ignore one regulation and where does it stop......

The customer buying the steak (top riders) in my example is the restuarant (club) There isnt the money for it to be on the menu regardless as diner demand is too low Even if you lose those that will only eat steak the restaurant can no longer provide it -

I think you are deliberately ignoring the underlying point in my analogy.....
