Thorssell on a 4.50 is absolutely ridiculous. 

I agree - almost as bonkers as Cooper on a 2 would be

100%.

Mayfield have potentially played a blinder here, Ipswich or Northampton will be laughing if a deal gets done.

Thorssell on a 4.50 would compensate for not having a No.1.

Jacob's basically a No.3 in this standard of competition imo.

Not saying he wouldn't do well but Thorsell had a lower average than Blodorn in Poland last season.

Tbf Thorsell is a steal if he comes in on a 4.50 average but i wouldn't get to carried away, i watched him during the SON for Sweden and yeah if he gated he was fine but if he didn't he didn't make much of a impression during the race, to me he's another Klindt, very much a gating tart, just my opinion obviously🤭

Cowboy Cook?

He could maybe DU with the "Young Stars"...

 

A modern day Cowboy type of rider would be fantastic! However he was a true one off.

First is in the top 5 if you think about it. Unless you mean 2nd bottom 

I think they meant guaranteed Top 5 finish (assuming 5 are guaranteed to take part).

King's Lynn fans have been delighted to be guaranteed Top 6/7 finishers for the last few seasons, because that's consistently higher than when there were more teams in the BL, Elite, Prem, etc. 😊

Mid Feb, no concrete confirmation on how many clubs competing in the top tier and no idea (officially) who is behind the Ipswich take over. No signings either.

Its mental . People wonder why the sport is not taken seriously.

As I read elsewhere, this has been the worst close season I have ever known of. Absolute mess.

The posts I have read on Scunny signing a team over the limit just about sums the state of the sport up.

I think it's really been the best worst close season ever, even better than the Coventry/Peterborough fiasco, this close season started pretty early and has been the gift that has just kept on giving, it's kept me fully engaged with the forum throughout as I normally dip out during the close season, part of me will be sad to see it all finally resolved 😁

It’s kept a topic of conversation going right through the Winter months you’re right. Usually everything is done pre-Christmas and this forum dies a death until March.
