I assume Rhys Naylor will be in the team now as well.

Rhys, Ben and Nathan Ablitt would be a good heatleader trio. Along with Jack Kingston, Nathan Hargrave, Sam Woods and then whatevers left.

That would leave 4.77 available for the final rider

Nathan Ablitt 8.33
Ben Morley 8.32
Jack Kingston 6.45
An Other
Rhys Naylor 4.13
Sam Woods 3.00
Nathan Hargrave 3.00
Total 33.23

Thinks that will be fairly close. Potentially swap Woods for Connor King and Josh Couzins for Nathan Hargrave. Don't know if Josh Warren still has bikes or interest but he would be a good final piece......not much of an Eastbourne flavour to the side though. 

That would leave 4.38 for the final rider. Josh Warren on 4.93 wouldn't fit.

Nathan Ablitt 8.33
Ben Morley 8.32

I cannot see this set up working at all. Are the Eastbourne supporters going to travel 60-90 minutes to see their team and are the Kent/Canterbury/Sittingbourne supporters going to support their arch enemy Eastbourne as their team. It is going to need a lot of work and promoting. It does mean there is speedway in Kent but I suspect not for a full season.

When Eastbourne rode at Arlington fans came from all over south east with many having a journey of 60 mins plus. There’s no walk-up crowd as there is at Oxford or Poole for example. Arlington is down a narrow country lane off the A22 in the Sussex countryside as Mr Millard was apt to say on Sky

Second rider is.. Jamie Ethrington.

Good second signing and like the ethos of a 30 year old heat leader and a promising 15 year old as the first 2 signings. See on the bspa website Jamie was 2nd to Cairns in the youth championship this year so an ideal signing. 

A 15 year old, a 30 year old, who's 45 and still riding......

Closest i could find was Luke Clifton who will be 43 next season.....although Rob Hollingsworth and Mick Skinner are both north of 60 and would still do a good job at reserve.
