I'm not sure anyone any good on a 4 is willing/able to come over to the UK for a whole season unfortunately, if at all.
While Paco has his limitations his experience will be useful with a very young reserve pairing and of course what he brings off track too.
The meeting at Lynn was the second leg of the Play Off final:

Yep I think thats thr crux of it, Lawson or NKI would have meant a very long tail.
Personally I think an injury free season for Cook and he can improve on 6.whatever he is on but we shall see.
Welcome Coops. An incredibly exciting side being built, I love the idea of a reserve pairing graduating from the Young Stars. Especially if one of them is a Norfolk boy.
McDairmid would be my choice at 2 personally.
The fact that Northampton was talked about a long time ago and is still being mentioned suggests there is something in it.
I suspect all will become clear in the next week or two.
And a full stadium to race in front of, wages on time, lots of meetings, trophies and a feel good factor. The track comments are valid as it leaves a fair bit to be desired but everything else is really attractive for a rider to sign for them if approached.
