There's bound to be at least one reg that we only find out about around June/July (possibly later) time when one 'smart' promoter looks to shaft the others.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aries Posted November 7, 2023 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 Musielak contacted Louis for a team place. Whether anything evolved from that or whether he was told there was no room at the inn, I have no idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Stanton Posted November 7, 2023 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 (edited) I’ve heard the Musielak thing myself. Can’t see it personally. There’s top heavy, then there’s top heavy! Edited November 7, 2023 by Arch Stanton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a great addition, have a lot of time for him as a rider and how he comes across as well, but if they retain Dolye and Emil (which they should) can't see how it could be done!

It is actually doable with the rumoured 40 point limit. Those three would leave just over 12. You could in theory go with that top three, fill the remaining main body positions with Riss and Rew, leaving a reserve place up to 3.25 available. Whether that’s a sensible strategy is open to debate but definitely doable (if even more money is chucked in ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavan Posted November 7, 2023 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 Doyle and Emil are definitely back so I’ve heard so to get Tobi will mean a lot of outlay and no King…. Not sure that will happen but for me I would go for it why not Means the side built along the same lines except Tobi for King which is an upgrade Riss is still a worry .. yes a low average but his demeanour on the bike wasn’t good and I’d be concerned on him improving on it Rew should add hopefully 1.5 on his average. Dan Thompson a no brainier as the rising star Hume is a difficult one as he is a fans favourite , gives 110% and is always amenable and friendly after a meeting …. If we do go top heavy with Doyle Musi and Emil is there a better rider on his average? Not sure there is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manifesto Posted November 7, 2023 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 Tobi would be a great signing for any team. Be sad not to see him flying round Owlerton next season every week.. he has just suffered a bad injury so not sure if that’s why Sheffield have gone for Tai and Jack (rumoured) over him.

Not sure there is Would rather a younger rider to replace riss with a greater potential upside - agree riss body language just didn’t look at all the same on bike post illness, not convinced he’s on a false low average I think the mistakes Danyon showed in the playoffs confirmed that he’s kinda reached his level now, he’s a lovely lad and gives it everything but we need a number 6 alongside Dan Thompson who can improve and I just think Danyon is the rider he’s going to be.

Tai and Jack are both uk-based so cheaper than Tobi. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panthers99 Posted November 7, 2023 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 (edited) So if its a 41: Emil 10.10 Rew 4.00 Tobi 8.69 B Cook/Brennan/Schlein 6.09 left Doyle 9.12 Thomas 3.00 Thompson RS I mean, could go stronger than Thomas as a 3.00, but I think it's pretty strong! Certainly wouldn't be beaten at home (providing no injuries). Could even go Z Cook or a 5.00 rider and then a 4.00 rider at reserve Edited November 7, 2023 by Panthers99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted November 7, 2023 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 I can see Tobi at KL tbh. Surely Emil and Doyle back for Ippo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy cookie returns? Posted November 8, 2023 Report Share Posted November 8, 2023 So Brennan has been released by Belle Vue, could be a handy addition at Foxhall possibly in place of Riss depending on the points limit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LagutaRacingFan Posted November 8, 2023 Report Share Posted November 8, 2023 Ipswich need to be harsh with Doyle. He is 38 and is not going to get any better. I would go for Artem Laguta or Maciej Janowski. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santa Claus is also free and I don't know of anyone quicker on an anti clockwise lap Added advantage that there are no clashes with his other job as there is no season overlap Untried foreigner should be in on a 5 - now that's a real bargain 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
