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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 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.

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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually one of the few KL fans positive about it! And if we are in a different league, average manipulation has no purpose! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

89buttons Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Stanton Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 NKI 7.54 Allen 5.56 King 6.83 Heeps 6.30 Klindt 7.43 That would leave 8.84 for a couple of reserves if the 42.50 limit remains. Nico and Sarj would fit.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
