What about Magic? He's been ditched by the Poles for sicknotegate. Maybe you could get him to ride on a British licence. Could be British Champion and ride for us in the SON!

You got a spare £150K for a season. Reckon thats how much he would cost and ohhh remember the 50k fee Wroclaw want if he rides in the Uk for cover if he gets injured. Ohh and Ford probs going to charge you at least £10K for the loan. So probs about £210k all together for Magic and most of all he doesn't want to ride in the UK.

Its amazing how a rider thinks hes worth more to a club even though his average has dropped and it wasnt because of any manipulation. 

Riders are worth whatever some fool is prepared to pay. I think a lot of riders think they’re worth more than they are but then again if someone pays it they are worth it to someone. If Peterborough hire Tungate again it tells you a lot about where they are after he couldn’t be bothered to turn up to 3 meetings last year and the management know it.

If riders continue to take that sort of approch then its no wonder tracks run at big losses, teams that can throw money at riders force the ones that struggle to stay competitive to overstretch themselves and eventually go under owing money they havnt got.

Tungate isnt a sort after rider and has only a few options best he stays home if he takes this attitude.

I agree completely. Unfortunately we live in a world where all too often we see a short term me me me attitude to the detriment of the bigger long term picture. And that’s from both riders and promoters alike

1. Masters 7.35

2. Hans Andersen 5.79

3. Harris 6.16

4. Mikkel B 6.26

5. Ellis 6.49

6. BWD 5.47

7. Summers 4.87

42.39

Best I can think of that might realistically happen, Wolves seems to be going for a top end rider, so out of him and Thorsell. Mikkel B will probably be coming to here or Lynn. Ellis seems to be on the way out at Swindon. 

Pointless having 2 strong reserves, but no other way to build the side.

If Freddie doesn't come, it could be that Masters and Thorssell are available, we have around 16.5 points for the top 2
