Ireally don't understand what you have against him without seeing him perform at Shielfield on a regular basis.He has a PL average over 7 points which is no mean feat IMO .Did he refuse you his autograph last season.!!
Ithink there is a lot of riders on the continent that would ride to near a 7 pt average but the bottom line is they won't come to UK to ride for PL pay rates.Gone are the days when you find a Shane Parker or Les Collins dropping down.
Typical speedway rules nobody has a clear idea on this matter,or if the Promoters have ,they are not telling the fans as this has been under discussion on here for a couple of weeks.
I'm a bit confused with your theory,does the rolling averages not stop this from happening.If the assessed riders drop their average and you want to keep them who do you drop from the Team? Did Newcastle not try this with Danny King last year and it failed because they had to drop 2 riders to get 1 so called decent signing into the Team.
Think he won his first 2 races one night and was taken out in Heat 8 by a monarch .Anyway he will probably come back to haunt us when Sheffield visit Berwick.He seemed to lose interest at Berwick last season ,he is a talent IMO and is still young.
