David is right. I don't know how much input he has on team building, or if Rob has final say. It was clear to everyone at the start of the season that the team was mediocre and would not be contenders. I have a lot of respect for Rob and what he does at the EWR ,but his major failing this year was being too loyal to last years team. He also took a massive gamble on bringing back Worrall after a year out and the Kennedy brothers (one obviously never ridden in UK ). Lambert sorry to see him struggle, but a year too far for him. Unfortunately Luke, the only one doubling up , has faded since joining Kings Lynn. Jake needs a better tuner since he has been fantastic on the bends, but constantly easily passed on the straights. Connor has been consistent but should have kicked on more.
Gone are the days when several riders would offer their bikes to a struggling rider, its sad but no longer much team playing , just individuals looking after themselves.
