Is there not a 5% reduction for British riders like last season? If there was than you could fit 6 of the team from last year.

King 7.85
Worrall 7.85
Lawson 7.76
B Cook 6.09
Z Cook 4.92
J.MacDonald 3.51
N Ablitt 2.00

Those averages already include the British reduction.

Also MacDonald would be on a 4.00 ave

As opposed to how many that have turned Plymouth down?:party:

I would be surprised if anyone gets their team A but didn't realise it was a competition!

Interesting comment made by Bagpuss over on the Glasgow Forum.

Rew, Dan T and Ablitt completing Poole then presumably.

Only throwing this out there for opinion but, could it be that Leic knew ages ago they would be going up and with Lawson being a Poole asset since start of last season, could they have cut an end of season deal deal between the 2 promoters & riders  of Lawson to Leic in exchange for Dan Thompson spending the season at Poole. ??. Also bearing in mind Poole intend to move up in 2024 to Prem, so Dan would just revert back to Leicester as he is their asset and Lawson back to Poole in Prem as he's a Poole asset.

I'm intrigued by Danny Ford's dream Team comment. Plus he has openly said he already got a plan B and C in place, if he can't agree terms on his A team.

If we went Worrall or King - Lawson - Both Cooks and if Rew is a 5 and young Dan is 5.09 rounded up after 2.5% Brit reduction you get 37.12 only leaving 2.88, really making Ablitt only viable option to get us 0.88 points short of the 40 IF we go that way. My reservation is would Danny want to come up that short on points total ??

We know Danny/Matt like the idea of riders who can improve their averages and arguably all the bottom 5 could do that imo.

Would love to know what Danny's Dream Team idea is though.
