  1. C Cook 10.18
  2. S Jensen 4.34
  3. R Wells 7.05
  4. P Starke 6.49
  5. R Jensen 9.05
  6. C Bailey 3.11
  7. C Coles 2.00

Total = 42.22 less allowable 2.5% reductions. 

Obviously based on a 42.5 limit, assuming the rumours are true. 

I would be happy with that team. I doubt Rasmus will be back though.

In that case I'd go with....

  1. C Cook 10.18
  2. S Jensen 4.34
  3. R Wells 7.05
  4. A Summers 7.51
  5. R Lawson 8.32
  6. C Bailey 3.11
  7. C Coles 2.00

42.51 total but with 2.5% reductions we'd be fine. 

who is getting the 2.5 reduction  conner ?

heard that the points limit was only going to be 41, so that would rule that time out ? 

also thought you only get a 2.5% reduction if you rode in the national league within 3 seasons

Would maybe take out summers use Broc nickel and use extra points at bottom end

We can but dream.

Now that was a team.

That team had great reserves something we now largely ignore in our team building.

This season we started with Chessell and Lawlor, who were going to do nothing other than make up the numbers. The change for Bickley helped us big time in the early season and Bailey at home during Aug/Sep beat some decent riders on the way to a few points. Look at the impact Mountain has had for Leicester, we need something similar next year IMO.

Wouldn’t argue with that. Having Bailey and a ‘stronger’ reserve would be a solid team throughout. 

Agree with that one strong reserve is a must.

Getting Sam at reserve would be the answer.

Connor should really kick on next year he has shown glimpses of how good he can be.

I would like to see a strong reserve next year as the last few years the Tigers have  had two weak reserves but as Cook will likely be back it could be two weaker riders again. As for who I’d like to see in the stripes next year, obviously the Tigers need another couple of riders who can increase their average like Rasmus done this season and a couple/few mentioned below could do just that.

Craig Cook 10.18

Ricky Wells 7.05

Broc Nicol 5.16

Sam Jensen 4.34

Drew Kemp 3.58

Connor Bailey 3.11

So....a couple of rumours doing the rounds about Glasgow possibly considering moving up to the Premier League.  Personally, I have never been keen on the idea but I suppose it would depend on the amount of teams there were and whether it would benefit the club from the management’s viewpoint.  Apart from the likes of Fricke, Doyle and Batchelor and to a lesser extent Musielak and Lambert, there’s no one in that league who would make me yearn to be part of it compared to the Championship.  What are people’s thoughts?
