I think Rory is a slightly in the Robbie Savage bracket (only slightly) . In that he is one of those guys that you hate if he is in the opposition team but love if he is in your own team. Sorry, I can't agree with that.........Slime guested for us on a few occasions towards the end of last season, and I still hated him. Personally i like the lad, and have done since i saw him score a faultless 15 point maximum at Wimbledon in the conference riders championship, i have followed his career ever since and fail to see why he is so disliked.

He slotted into our team extremely well last season, and went from strength to strength due to him being much happier as a Witch than a Bee, which I suppose is why I was so surprised he re-joined Coventry so quickly this season TBH, would have loved to have him as a full time Witch, however, that is as a rider, not too sure about Roo himself, occasionally a Weird one would appear, but how much of that was down to Captain Fantastic I'm not sure.....our gain is Somerset's loss And before you start genghis, like you I am entitled to my opinion of Johnno

If a rider thinks he's the best thing since sliced bread, he usually isn't. There's a world of difference between Nicki and other riders, but I can't quite decide what exactly it is he has that others lack. I compare Nicki to Michael Schumacher. I used to think the pair of them had immeasurabale egos, but along the way I developed a huge respect for their attitude and achievements. I'm yet to find that with Nicholls.

Surely arrogance is found in most successful sportmen. But how successful would you say that the Poo Boy has been, so far? Successful enough for the level of arrogance he has, on occasion, displayed?

I'm yet to find that with Nicholls. Not sure why Nicholls has been mentioned ? It's for one of two reasons: 1..It's a witch-hunt against Nicholls. 2..Because I read this through the last 25 posts and thought we were talking about Scott - sorry. Comment still stands though.

I can live with that, so long as you can accept i'll always defend the indefensible.

And before you start genghis, like you I am entitled to my opinion of Johnno Badge, yes you're entitled to your opinion of Johno (please note there's only "n" in Johno ), however wrong it may be.

You are of course entitled to your opinion kevh, but I would suggest that appearing as a guest in not quite the same as being a regular team member
