Just fits, would be their best team for a few years imo 

Michael P Toft 7.80
Nico Covatti 7.82
Ben Barker 5.87
Joe Thompson 5.63
Alfie Bowtell 5.07
Lasse Fredriksen 4.67
Ben Trigger 3.00
Total 39.86

One rider that always went well at Plymouth was Thomas Jorgensen, I know he sat out last season in the UK but if I recall he was on an average around 6.5 in 2023, could be a good signing on that average. Would allow for a stronger reserve than Trigger and maybe enough for someone like Hagon to be at reserve with Fredriksen.

I don't think Hagon is heading to Devon (well not every week anyway!).

In place of who? Would mean having stronger reserves, but Plymouth fans have been calling out for a stronger top end.

What about Klindt hasn’t got a Polish team spot for start of the season over there (has Warsaw contract so can ride later in season when window opens again), ridden previously in Championship and would be ideal number 1, just maybe a bit on the expensive side

All I read on FB is "we need to sign a top number one" etc

Palm Toft has had 2 previous spells at Plymouth. And has been poor on both occasions.

Not correct he was going really well at Plymouth until Lawson put him through the fence at Poole and he was was out with injury.

Harsh, for me MPT had started going really well for us until his clash with Lawson at Poole that resulted in MPT getting injured. After that he was never right imo. I think he'd be a decent option and options appear limited.

Michael P Toft 7.80

 
Stanislav Melynchuk 6.00
 
Ben Barker 5.87
 
Joe Thompson 5.63
 
Alfie Bowtell 5.07
 
Kyle Newman 4.96
 
Lasse Fredriksen 4.67
 
Total - 40
 
The above being based on Melynchuk being based in London and on the look for a team spot in championship and the reported lack of available remaining heat leaders.
 
I saw him at the SoN at Belle Vue and he was quick if a little wreckless. Would need some dialling in on a tight track like plymouth.
 
Newman a steady set of hands and averaged 6+ at home this year.
 
Just an idea

Newman has a 5.24 average, so that team wouldn't fit.

Nathan Ablitt in place of Newman fits under the limit.

Even with Ablitt that team looks shocking !!
