     could be Suzuki.... but what he has n't worked out from the contract is that they want him as the spanner-boy not the rider! 
 Sorry could n't resist.
 
 My guess is that he is talking it up, - he has to be big money after the years in the game, everybody knows Birdy is not the easiest of bosses, - but who could blaim hinm for not renewing the contract after this year.
 
 Did you hear the interesting Birdy comment though? He will hear from Ducati this week, - they want a 2 rider team, - one UK (looking at Rutter) but one already employed by the factory..........depending on results that could be....... Toseland, Laconi, or even Bayliss?
