I'm not sure Josh was too impressed with the situation Cookie left him and the rest of the team in last season so i'd be surprised if he wanted to ride with him again.

Josh maybe not an out and out number one but we need him back. He is an entertainer. A bit underwhelmed when you see a lot of teams are well on their way to completing or have completed their line ups.

At least Max James is a fresh face so far, and that's a plus.  The surprise could actually be that there no surprises, but have a feeling there may be at least one, otherwise what would be the "exciting news" that was promised earlier ?

The "exciting news" is that the snack bar is keeping prices at 2023 levels next season.

I've had a couple of Morgan's Spiced rums tonight but how about this for a new look team for 2024?

1 Pickering - 8.63

2 Roynon - 3.42

3 Riss - 7.35

4 Thomson - 6.48

5 Howarth - 7.76

6 Hodder - 2.00

7 James - 2.00

Total points - 37.64

*I know Roynon isn't ideal in the main body of the side but he does know Armadale well after riding for the Academy side last year and he would free up room to allow for the possibility of four heat leaders in a weaker league and seeing as Poole are tracking a couple of 2-point riders I'd be prepared to see Hodder and James given a chance at 6 and 7. After last season what is there to lose?

Max clegg @ 2.64 (roughly)should be a must have.yes he had a shocker the last couple of seasons for 1 reason or another BUT look at his NL scores for Edinburgh the end of last year.

Felt paco got a bit more consistent as the season went on. Done his job as a 2nd string imo. As a heat leader kye should be going out and winning races if not getting 2nd places. Too many lasts and thirds last year.

Think a lot of Monarchs fans are blinded by Castagna's likeable character and ignore that he first rode the UK in 2015 & has hardly progressed.

IMO he is at best a journeyman, one line performer (get's a nose bleed trying the outside:P) & we should be looking to recruit someone with more potential for 2024,
