Someone will be without a team place now anyway. Redcar already had to bin 2 riders, one being a young Brit so the new rule really done wonders there.

Redcar's move had nothing to do with the new rule though?

 

Also I can't see Master's doing Edinburgh but I suspect Schlein may take his place!

Or 27 year old Tom bacon but it’s all in the best interest of the sport so they say. 
feel for James as he’s a good guy and hopefully he’ll get sorted out soon somewhere.

Tom bacon makes a bit more sense because he ain't been around as long and he actually has scope for improvement... whereas josh is basically at his level... would love to see james at newcastle one day, guested for us a few years back and was popular

To be fair James Sarjeant has has plenty opportunity over the seasons to impress, yet seldom has.

Making James a rising star wouldn't help him anyway as he'd be a 4, meaning Edinburgh still couldn't use him

He may also have turned it down

Not saying he should be one, but how is he not if Josh Bates is?

I would guess it will be  Luke Ruddick on a 3 star. 

I thought so too, but hasn't he moved down south now? Which makes it a little less likely... Connor Coles or Jack Smith would be nice to see...

Has Kye or Lasse been signed up elsewhere in Europe?

do we know he wasn't asked to be on the scheme 

 

Well, he'd be a bit daft to turn it down as it's now lost him a team place and what's the disadvantage to NOT being on the scheme? He can still ride not as a rising star, it just widens his chances of a team place

I believe Ruddick is based in the Suffolk area, but as a ex-Edinburgh rider he must stand a chance.
