Yeah I didn't read the middle bit. Just the first sentence! But you wanted me to say if anyone was making him out to be a HL. I did that based HLs averages at other clubs. Newman a HL next season, average under 6! If anyone predicting anyone to have a 6+ average then they looking at HL material. 

No they’re not. Majority of riders averages will increase this season, unless they have a stinker, due to a starting team average of 38. It’s simple maths. I don’t agree that Pearson will be 6+, but 6+ at the end of the season does not mean he’s a heatleader.

Pearson got 4 yesterday, does that mean he will get 6 in the championship, difficult to compare scores in a individual competition to scores in a league. Kurtz and Pickering both got 8, does that mean they end up with the same average in the Premiership?

Yes I would agree with that, better than some that have signed on a similar average.

Same, on a 4 he's a great signing. 

Keeping Complin and signing Starke is what will see Glasgow struggle, imo.

Starke will be better than maybe some think, I am sure he cant be worse than some of the other 4pointers and may prove many wrong.

He just doesn't feel like a Glasgow signing. 

I hope so, he's a nice guy. But he's only gone one way over the last 4/5 seasons.

Certainly a strange signing,wish him well though.He has struggled over the last couple of seasons since his wrist injuries.

He would be in some teams though like Plymouth and Oxford.

Cami Brown's mate, relates to riding for Glasgow in 2019. Back then he was a 6 point rider, averaged 9 at home.

But steady decline since then, lots of injuries.

He better be a lot better than last season for Birmingham.

I saw him twice: home v Glasgow (think it was his first meeting back) 3 points and last meeting of their season where he was especially poor v Plymouth 3 points where he twice beat NL guest Matt Marson and barged his way through Ben Trigger.

I think he will be, I cant see him getting back to the rider he once was but I think he will be better and could be a very astute signing.
