But did they not drop Rowe as part of a double change to bring in Lewis Kerr? It wasn't a case of replacing him with a 4.00 man because he was underperforming.

It only matters now if he's stronger than the outgoing rider (Roynon)

Yeah but they could have dropped Sargent even though on the higher average was performing worse than Rowe but the way he’s spoken about by our fans seems like he had attitude problems which lead to him being replaced

Rowe wants to ride more in Poland where he has offers, good contacts from a spell in 2020 and also potentially fast bikes prepared by one of the top UK tuners based over there.

If that's where he wants to focus people should respect that and he certainly doesn't have the big fish in a small bowl some UK riders suffer from and have all of their careers.

He's not going to be riding for any Friday / Saturday / Sunday track in UK on that basis and as U24 league is on a Tuesday in Poland that really narrows his CL options you'd think for a home track and he'd miss a lot of away matches.

Fait play to the kid, he's showing ambition

No big shake ups - the track has had the bumps and ruts smoothed out now:D

What's happened to this big team shake up? Heading down to Oxford tomorrow mainly to watch Lee Complin, but it'd be nice to know if there's a competitive team heading down?

Unless we can bring in a fresh face or 2 in for the next 3 meetings & the rest of the campaign we need a miracle with a capital M to get anything out of the season!! But to be fair to the promotion they are trying to get the best possible riders in & remember the previous promotion done it with recruiting the 2 Danes kenni larsen & Rene Bach

Is it not Matty Weathers Bowtell is guesting for rather than Max Clegg?

Whiles it's obvious points are being haemorrhaged away at 6 & 7, I'd have thought getting a No1 would have been a priority.

Paying for top quality guests can't be helping the finances and I'm sure the fans want to see their own no1 every week.
