ouch Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago When William joined the Colts in 2024 he looked a good prospect and someone worth investing in. It would be a shame to see him elsewhere in 2027 but the trouble is you get other clubs offering ridiculous terms, pushing up rider demands and needlessly taking money out of a cash strapped sport. If only they had used that money to bring on their own riders. Bigger picture guys! Belle Vue will never win a bidding war against the cheque book clubs, something I highlighted when we had a league of 11 and I’m sadly still doing it now we have a league of only six.

A club using their own resources to pay riders is not “taking money out of a cash strapped sport” so stop being a drama queen ffs. If you work hard to attract good sponsorship and have a good relation with those sponsors who are willing to help finance deals for good riders, then good for them.

TTT Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Not surprised that a bidding war is happening over the youngsters. The only Club that can get away with an average No.7 is Belle Vue imo and that's due to the top end power that Belle Vue always have to a point where you know that you're going to get over 30 Points just from the Heat Leaders at Home every week.

Only just checked the Northampton thread after I posted on here. Stunned Belle Vue haven't got Jaimon back on his GSA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldace Posted 14 minutes ago Report Share Posted 14 minutes ago 2 hours ago, PhilTheAce said: top 2 pretty much confirmed, so until we know the points limit then i have no idea who the others could be. klindt on a low average and he put himself in the shop window, he is also going to be using a british license so will he get the deduction or not??? you would say ben cook is a shoe in, so we can get wins at home. preferbly id take the same team as this year with bewley for doyle but sadly that wont be able to happen which is a crying shame Klindt and B. Cook make a lot of sense and we would be so strong at home. Sounds like we may lose Norick, Zak and Tate. Really think keeping at least Norick and Tate would be preferable given the tiem invested in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
