Harris, Lawson out klindt and covatti in. 

If Danny fancies a year at Sheffield, I would be happy with that to. 

I know it seems harsh to say as he clearly loves Ipswich and is settled here, but I personally wouldn’t keep King on his average it looks expensive to me and there’s better value elsewhere. 

Little point debating this one though in all honesty

There could be better value than king, but like you say,  won't happen. Which brings me to something which has been said before, we are just too nice to be winners.

Hmmm dunno if I'd want a Poole rider in my team #averagemanipulation :@

Why does everyone say that about Poole riders? Are there any examples of it? When we had Ward at Swindon his average was only going one way despite the fact everyone said he would be lowering it for the following year. Low scores = low pay so can't see it myself. Poole are skint so are hardly going to be paying anyone a retainer to score badly.

Plus didn’t Matt Ford or someone else say recently that IF they dropped to the championship, it wouldn’t be a short term fix but they’d be in it for the long haul or something along those lines?

If that’s the case then it would make zero sense for a rider with ties to Poole, to drop his average next season. 
 

On Klindt, I’ve seen one or two question whether he’d be good value on his current average, but I think he’ll push that to over 8 next year riding Foxhall every week.

Davey watt at Eastbourne. He was number one and in the final month of the season he hardly scored a point and his average plummeted. Surprise surprise the following year he rejoins Poole and his average rockets

You seemed quite happy to have Chris Holder at KL though. Actually one of the few KL fans positive about it! And if we are in a different league, average manipulation has no purpose!

I'm sure you  will be right, and imo, that team won't be good enough to win league, as although Swindon will have to shed from this season, they will still go top heavy, imo top heavy will always win

Losing the Poole track could help us a bit,  we  may have a couple of riders that would score better at sheffield

Swindon’s top 5 were fantastic but don’t under estimate the points both reserves got at the business end of the season.

Would love to see a NKI/klindt spearhead at Foxhall next year - Heeps, Allen and king nailed on to be back I’d have so those 5 and see what we’ve got left to play with!
 

Ellis perks at reserve would be good but can’t see him not at Swindon, Nick Morris goes good at Ipswich on a low average maybe a good look, would like to see Pieszczek given another go maybe, Jonas jeppesen could be a real trump card at bottom end and Josh Pickering I think will be making a move and impact in top flight next season in uk
