Like you say you have never understood”well past his best”.

An average gives the actual performance but not the reasons for the performance which should be taken into account. Look at Claus, unhappy at Brum in 2022 we signed him for 2023 on a 5.00 and he finished with 6.24. Just going by raw figures infered above we would never have signed him. Manipulating the average system to find riders who will outperform theirs is the name of the game, and increases the likelihood of success. I think that was the thinking behind Starkey though its not worked. He started on unreliable equipment, appeared to lose his confidence and is trying to turn it round having acquired newer kit. I may have read he had a new baby recently and could be wrong, but if true is always a drain on parents energy. I hope he can turn it round but Im not sure, by only riding the CL we've barely had any fixtures especially at home the last 2 months and thats never good either. Between him and JP its hard to pick up heat advantages on the road, and when our heatleaders are being outgunned like last night, it becomes a difficult watch.

I've never understood the "well past his best" argument against signing Starke. Of course he's well past his best, otherwise he'd be on a 7 point average & wouldn't have fitted in the team. Now if you said, couldn't understand it, because no-one saw him improving his average, that would be a fair point. I could argue Chris Harris, Sam Masters & Ben Barker are "well past their best" don't get many complaints about their signings lol! -
