I'm happy we have an experienced rider at No.6

I don't think two rookies was the way to go. 

Back in the day........ well he was just fantastic. 

Now? Well anything above 5 would be a decent return. 

Back in the day yes now not so, be surprised if hes anywhere near 5

Not a convincing signing,but no doubt be on some good equipment this year.Jury is out on this team for me,but it will be an exciting watch.

Definitely need Vissing on his 5 average and to score big.

Totally agree few variables at play, need Harris and Ben to near as possible maintain their averages, need Tom to become genuine heat leader get up towards an 8.00 and need nowak and vissing to significantly improve. 

Not overly convinced but then I've probably said that about every team so far with reduced points limit!!

I make you right. 

Perhaps I should have said "very" decent return.

As I've mentioned before..... I wonder what his own expectations and motivations are, returning to the saddle after all these years?

Exciting watch there will be plenty room on the inside of the track they'll only need to grade a metre from the fence lol

Why? I don't dislike Glasgow. I'd be surprised if Tate is riding for anyone in the Champ.

Got to wonder when the deal for Compton was done? Has he been a quick replacement for Tate?

Manse was sure Complin wouldn't be riding for Glasgow.

From the reports of his injuries I doubt Tate will be riding anywhere n the next 12 months.

Yeah, they might say in a press release about the signing?

Doubt it, would seem like undermining complin if say thanks mate but you were our second choice. Sports propaganda will say he was always our first choice and isn't he great

That is because fans automatically compare it to last year's team (been guilty of it myself!) whereas you need to compare it to other teams.

I guess, but he might know all of that anyway.

Teams on paper can be deceptive.On track is what matters.

You look so stupid now ! Wouldn’t have it about anything I said haha 

Mate, your the worst kind of sports fan. A jumped up ego maniac with their nose up the arse of whoever you think is important. Couldn't give a monkeys how I look it's a forum, you know where you put opinions out. I never said complin wouldn't come just didn't want him. Same with Harris. Stand by it neither signing make sense. Now run along like the sycophant you are to get your next bit of "Insider knowledge". Absolute bore

I completely agree, with a drop in two points on the building, the teams had to reduced somewhere and it looks like all of the teams are going with a weaker looking reserve pairing.
