Don't worry Skidder.. Hans can always sign for Swindon, Buzz for Leicester, whilst Brady, Kyle and Adam will get fixed up elsewhere no problem

No argument with that at all... Poole will have done well to build a team that basically allows for them to have four heatleaders.. I am told (on here) that this is all above board, so OK, fair enough.. What does dishearten me for the new season is that Leicester seem incapable of signing any heatleaders at all (that may be down to their Promoter's intransigence, I don't know), KL have lost NKI with remote hope of an adequate replacement and Coventry's team seems desperately weak. BV have a reasonable side but who knows what Swindon, Lakeside and Wolves may cobble together.. I just hope the 2016 EL is competitive, if not, it may struggle to maintain any lingering interest that I currently have - and I don't want that to happen

BV and all their fans should have got an extra 2 points Starman,,, That would mean you lost,,

Am amazed that Cov have gone for the young Pole with so many points left to play with.. Hopefully he is better than last year's Jamrog You'd a thought, a lesson might have been learnt..

Totally agree with that... It looks like the BSPA (Promoters) just expected everyone to return, but without NKI, KIller, Magic, Zagar etc certain teams will struggle to field a competitive 7.. I just hope no one does an Oxford...

And five of them are most relieved the following morning...

I know a couple of people who despite being well under 60 have regularly got into meetings as 'Senior Citizens'.. I'm too young and good looking and perhaps more realistically too honest to do likewise

Are you suggesting that Matt was oh so tired on that memorable night in 2010 that he forgot to tell his minions to light those fireworks ?

And all because the lady loves the precious little hairdresser lost... You either have class or you don't.. (spoilt little brat)

Thanks for that Steve... Am much surprised his EL average is so high..anyway he's back at Sheffield now and good luck to him too ! I believe I'm right in saying that Aaron Summers and Simon Stead have a combined EL average higher than Freddie and Hans - if so it shows what a joke the averages have become (and Summers will struggle to get an EL ride as a result).. Swindon missed a trick in not resigning Hans for 2016, I thought if he moved from Cov he would be Blunsdon bound... Heh Ho...

I wouldn't mind seeing Simon back at Swindon.. Have no idea what his current EL average is though

It's all too top secret though, why can't they just publish the HL list - surely each team needs to know for team building purposes ! Then again when have the powers that be ever been interested in their customer base..

I don't want Batch in the side and if he isn't I believe that leaves 6.62 for the final rider, assuming of course that Dak is not a HL on I believe 5.91 from reading posts earlier... BTW...I would love Zengi to stay if his average wasn't so stupidly high (7.79 ?)...

Could it be... 1 Doyle 2 Sedgman 3 Morris 4 North 5 Batchelor/AN Other 6 Wright 7 Neilsen Hopefully AN Other...

Past tense please Steve...

Apologies for being off topic but the above post needs to be put into some perspective :- 1. Cameron hasn't a clue about how deep his cuts go... http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/nov/11/david-cameron-letter-cuts-oxfordshire 2. Police force to stop investigating minor crimes..(from the Daily Mail)... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3320883/Surrey-Police-force-says-stop-investigating-minor-crimes-forced-make-25-million-worth-cuts.html Anyway, it's been a good night for me, I've had an excellent evening out including free meals and filled up the car for zilch too..

Is it really that funny Steve.. Your club continually shows 'No Class'.. Cov won fair and square in 2010, but the appalling attitude of Cecil and his moron meant that there were no fireworks until the sad pilfering Pirates won the tin pot trophy the following year.. What a hapless bunch... of glory hunters...

Batch should be gone after his comments at the now laughable end of the Abbey meeting..

Welcome to Swindon Stefan and a warm welcome back to Justin too.. Both are good signings on their averages and let's hope the Robins can muster a team that might give the Pirates a run for their money..

When I posted this, I wondered if you'd be the first to respond... I don't like any of them...

Most riders will go where they can earn.. They may prefer to be at Poole or anywhere else, but if they can't get in the side (Darcy Ward), they will go wherever.. #DW43

The poorest in this country will suffer further shortly, thanks to the public schoolboy, land owning, never worked knobs currently in power.. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/nov/10/housing-target-david-cameron-dismantling-welfare-state

I was referring to Poole supporters saying that Darcy would not ride for anyone but Poole (not what Darcy may or may not have said).. BTW...I'd like to see Magic return to Swindon at some point

Didn't some Poole fans say that about Darcy too...

Reading the Coventry thread it appears that Howarth is using an EL average, so surely Newman should too.. Newman rode a full EL season too, whilst Howarth didn't.. This just doesn't add up (unless I've missed something)..
