Gonna go with no, but ask Chris on twitter, I'm sure he would answer, a bit more politely than some of the silly Aussies anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hodgy Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 Good move, in my opinion. LS not appearing comfortable / consistent on the UK tracks. Maybe away too long. Harris been there and done it, especially at the business end. He is an entertainer, that will give his all - engines permitting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If true that Sundstrom has stood down then Harris is as good as signing as is possible. After reading yr first sentance and a half i though, er we go. But you redeamed yourself in the second part. Sensible man.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few people have said that Harris could have replaced Josh or Richie instead of Linus and I said it would be harsh on Richie as he has already been sacked by another club recently.

Rob Dyer Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 When is the transfer deadline these days and what are the regulations relating to it? Did I read somewhere it was moved from 31 August to 31 July? If so, time running out for any team planning changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's July now and that's the month when he usually manages to at last sort out the set ups on his bikes so Poole have signed him at the best time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what I thought but someone corrected me on another thread and it’s mid August - I think it’s around the 12th. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A member of the committee deemed it not right or would help Somerset a bit too much more like. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
