Am I the only one that thinks Hans and Nicholls are on bargain averages?

On bargain averages for Ipswich & Wolves only imo, They'll put 1.5 / 2 points on starting GSA's if they sign for those tracks.

Neither of them can ride big tracks anymore though so it's pointless in us signing them even though I do think Hans Andersen will be back with us in 2023.

Have been informed that 3 current panthers riders have asked to ride for Lynn next season. 
basso,Harris and MPT. If that’s the case I’m guessing 3 from Lynn will come the other way. 
Lawson. Jorgensen. Maybe NKI or klindt if they ride in uk next year 

Source ?

I'd happily take Lawson for MPT. Lawson rides our place very well.

I wouldn't be bothered about losing Harris because he's got a 0% of maintaining his average next season imo.

Basso would be a blow but he can easily be replaced if we can snap up a track specialist like Ryan Douglas.

The new averages  coming out at the end of the month are interesting..... Basso is up to 6.81 from 5.91, Harris is down from 8.41 to 7.59. Do you still want Lawson, he's up to 7.91 from 6.27.

Bit hefty for me on a 7.91 however Rich does ride our place very well so I wouldn't be disappointed if he was to line-up for us in 2023.

Great move by Harris having a few dodgy meetings at the end , especially when the sample size is reduced to 10 meetings - he's obviously not as stupid as he looks ;)

Hans Andersen is a lock to return on his average.

Think two of Chris Harris, Michael Palm Toft & Ben Basso will be staying now as well. 

 

Rough guess on a new 1-7.

 

1. Niels Kristian Iversen

2. Craig Cook

3. Michael Palm Toft

4. Thomas Jorgensen

5. Chris Harris

6. Hans Andersen

7. Jordan Jenkins

Would take that except from Jorgensen

Ryan Douglas losing a point I'd imagine will ensure wolves keep him 

And Wolve's have dropped 3.47 team points in a month :blink: and are now around 1.80 below last years limit. The 63-27 defeat at the AFA helped that along. While the Stars team  put on 1.22. With Lawson potentially riding himself out of a job going from 6,27 to 7.91.

More forward planning is needed by some this time of the season, especially if there's nothing to play for and they want to win something next season :P

I wouldn't want him on 4.91 just something about him , decent enough rider but not my cup of tea a modern day Nigel Crabtree

Problem King's Lynn will have just like us is how other teams won't be releasing top end riders after the latest set of GSA's.

Therefore any swaps between Busters clubs will be like for like to ensure Buster has two chances at winning the league rather than one chance.

 

For example

BV will keep any top end rider that fancies returning next year.

Ipswich will keep Doyle, King, Batchelor etc.

Sheffield will keep J. Holder, Ellis, Howarth etc, Musielak too if he wants to do Britain.

Wolves will keep Masters, Becker, Douglas, Morris etc.

 

So the pool of riders will be thin to choose from unless Buster splashes the cash for Polish riders.

He did it for the whole season at Ipswich just to get away and then return to Peterborough :t:

Basso has signed for Bydgoszcz for 2023 

No Championship racing for him next season then.

On this years rules that will allow him to do 2 other leagues. 

Denmark & Prem or Denmark & Sweden

Agree with that. Only BV are slightly over, the rest are under at the moment. Looks like we will keeping you company again in 23:D
