To be fair I think you'd be better forgetting 42.5. I just got feeling the league to save costs will water down ? Maybe 38. 39 or 40 ?

I heard a whisper it could go as low down as 36

probably a good starting point if you are calling for a reduction whilst others dont want them.

 

Meet somewhere in the middle and ends up 39/40.....

Few riders probably out of jobs next year then? It will be key to finding improvers. Wasting over 7 points on average riders isn't the way to go.

prem league was a very good product when points limit was 45

the only difference to the cost is the fees teams agree with there riders

if the points limit is 36 good riders on 5point averages will demand more money than if the points limit was 45

riders on high averages will have to ride for less as there will be plenty wont get a team place so the higher riders will be compeating for team places

Making both reserves have a combined ave of 7 would easily reduce the team total. have this years no7's move upto to the no6 position and then have a new no 7. Riders like Ashley Morris, Lewis Rose, Rob Branford (under 5's ) need to step up and be as the 2nd 2nd string (eg at no 2) The next in line eg 5-6 point riders (Jacobs, Roynon, Bates) as number 4's

Will riders like Mason Campton who finished year on a 4.40 average have their 2017 starting ave increased to 5?

 

Using Ipswich as an example, even this team has a total of 40.74!

 

1. Barker 7.91

2. Heeps 5.07

3. Covatti 7.49

4. Sarjeant 5.80

5. Risager 7.13

6. Lanham 4.34

7. Hume 3.00

 

a limit of 38 would see:

 

1. Barker 7.91

2. Heeps 5.07

3. Sarjeant 5.80

4. Manzares 5.00

5. Covatti 7.49

6. Mountain 3.00

7. Hume 3.00

45.00 was back when BPs counted towards averages. Even though 45.00 (with BPs) is higher than 40.00 (without BPs) the difference is not as vast as it sounds.

Will ruin the league if they go as low as that as others have said riders on high averages will be out a job for being good at there job.

Dream team:

 

Holder 7.16

Newman 6.31

Jonas B 6.32

Hansen 6.25

Lasse 6.75

Shanes 3.00

Morris 4.37

 

40.04

 

With British average reductions would fall under 40.00, team full of progression and be superb around the EOES

How will lowering the points limit save money? If that's what's rumored to be happening.... Surely clubs should only be paying what they can afford. If the riders don't want to accept that then so be it
