To be fair Jack Smith has done a good job so it wouldn't be  a shock if we kept him

Will we have any spare points when the averages change !!

Good point, personally I'd give Connor Coles a go, who's available under 6.96? Jonas Jeppesen, Matthew Wethers, Thomas Jorgensen, Claus Vissing?

Justin Sedgmen 7.35

Remaining 6.95

Paco Castagna 6.92

Kye Thomson 5.53

Jonatan Grahn 5.00

Victor Palovaara 5.00

Connor Coles 3.25

Or a 2 pointer and a MPT for example.

If we go for a 2.00 rider it’s surely going to be McGurk?

will be interesting to see Klidermand probably stay on 8.50 as only had 5 meetings and needs 6 for a proper average

Don’t think it will be if we go down that route. 
 

We should come the end of the month have around 10 points maybe touch more than that to play with to replace max and Oskar.

Given that there is unlikely to be any home based rider likely to be available to replace the departed 6.00, maybe we should be looking at another Scandanavian rider ( if not already fully committed ).  There may be others of course but examples such as Esben Hjerrild, Casper Henriksson and Rasmus Karlsson would probably fit into the 6.00 category, leaving some points over for a #7 i.e. when the new averages are released ?

[Heathcote]

If there is 10 points to play with why not go with James Pearson and Michael West, both currently in Europe and neither riding in the UK

Getting an overseas rider in at the drop of a hat (or a Pole) isn't as easy as it used to be before Brexit.   They all need visas, etc, unlike when UK was part of EU.

Ironically for Monarchs, Scotland voted resoundingly to 'remain'....

That was 9years ago not 9 months 🤔The fact is not many want to ride in GB when better offers are in Europe.

Brainwashed.

Give Sir Liar Flipflop Starmer another day and Brexit will be a distant memory so wouldn't worry too much....

He's just sold out British fishing to get his nose up the EU.

It's suddenly a bit 'Reformy' in here
