Leicester would soon drop him if it cost them league points. They have 6 other riders on form, or 5 after Dan T got injured. They can carry him no probs.
We cant carry 2 in the top 5 that is the difference. As then you are asking Will and Cooper to be getting at least 6/7 points a meeting.
You really need to listen to MF's interview on solent at start of the season. Will answer a lot of your questions.
For one they said Dan could come back, Kyle could be an option if he did well or they could look somewhere else. So he was never 100% coming back if that was said just before season started.
