Imagine sacking a Brit for a Dane. 
 

no shame from the tigers 

Of course there's no shame, they want to win the league. Just like there was no shame when Belle Vue dropped a Brit for an Aussie last year, or Glasgow dropped a Brit for a Slovenian or when Plymouth dropped a Brit for a Dane, I could go on!

Boughen needs to get back to NDL and learn his trade imo

The team was built on boughen at least needing to average 6.5. he's not even keeping his current one up. Evidently a crisis of confidence but downing tools wasn't the way to go about it. Remember sedgy just about got a Max the meeting he knew was getting canned and improved ever since. 

Nagel who rode at sgp2? Didn't think could get him in a 5 but good signing if we have

Average is too high, will never happen.

Perhaps he moved up too soon. Leaving the NL behind & going to the Prem as a RS when he was 16 I believe.

Kinda hope Cairns doesn't follow suit & takes his time to move up the leagues, take a sensible approach like Luke Harrison does.

Which average though?

Very poor refereeing in ht 15 when off gate one Kyle jumped as clear as day and gained from it. Poor from Alex putting Paco on gate 4 in ht15, may as well run with 3 riders only. Kye would be a better bet.

Agree. Poor management putting Paco in 15. Result  feels like a defeat. Harris great riding tonight. Really attacked the third bend which sadly Sedgy could have done against Bomber but shut off. Thought he could have sat behind Grahn on a 3 3 as well. Would have put Kye in heat 15. The last heat has been a nightmare for us in most of the matches this season. The gift that keeps on giving.

Boughen not been the same since that crash he had at Glasgow with Pijper 

 

but great business by the facennas to bring in nagel. 

100 % this,

He got hit from behind by Pijper (I think in a British U21 a couple of years ago) and then got interviewed after and dropped the F word about the incident.

Never been the same rider since and has been doing this for a couple of years now.

It's a shame as he has the ability to beat any rider out there today but if he can't mix it and wont race, that can't be changed.

Not much in it.Palovara can still have 5rides if on form

Won't be able to ride in all of 2, 4, 8, 12 & 14 though. Granted won heat 1 tonight and I've no doubt be a good HL. But 9/10 be good return, will Grahn pick up more and toft more than R/R has? Up for debate
