Troy Batchelor 3. 4. Erik Riss 5. Danny King 6. 7. Danyon Hume And like this year,,, it has failure when I matters written all over it,, apart from Doyle that is,,, who's average is likely to drop a bit If a few riders return from abroad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted November 8, 2022 Report Share Posted November 8, 2022 Batchelor would be a good signing for anyone on that average because he'll slot in at No.2 next season rather than riding as a No.5 which will lead to his race programme being much easier every night next season. Batchelor done a good job for Ipswich this season to only take 0.10 off his average considering he was riding at No.5 almost every week and having to face the oppositions No.1 three times a night due to King letting the side down most weeks. Riding in Heat 8's is a whole different ball game to riding in Heats 13 and 15 most weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll need a team of riders around the 5.50 - 6.50 range to back him up and that's with Hume at No.7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted November 8, 2022 Report Share Posted November 8, 2022 We need a new to league young foreign superstar,,that has improvement,,, not a team of on ya way downers,,,, which is the most likely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble is at Ipswich he wouldn't be at 2,,, cos the rest of the team will be just as bad or worse. It's okay having Doyle,,, but without proper support we might as well not bother having him. Not that any of that matters anyway,,, people will go regardless of how good or bad the team is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilTheAce Posted November 9, 2022 Report Share Posted November 9, 2022 Batchelor is a 5 point man. That’s what he gives you. And that’s what he’s good at now. Signing batch is the least risk of any signing. people need to stop thinking batch is being signed to score double figures every week.

Louis is just as much a fan as any of us and badly wants to win. He does make mistakes though and allows his heart to rule his head when it comes to riders he’s close to. We’ve got good backers but not an unlimited pot of cash. Doyle surely must be the most expensive rider in the league currently, that swallows the majority of the budget I’d have thought. It’s then a case of spreading what’s left as wisely as possible. Still yet to win the pot on his watch though and that’s something Louis has to take on the chin. Up to now his leadership has been a failure, can’t be argued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's right regarding too many newcomers. Frtom memeory before this season everyone was saying that Musielak would be wiping the floor with everyone but it didn't happen and he's had time over here before. With Dudek I don't see that he'd pull up too many trees and would be asking for a lot of dosh. I quite like Mike Bacon's side but wouldn't have Ellis and King in the same side, too inconsistent.
