Basically PL strength teams with a higher points limit.

 

I hope we don't end up with a team of Lakeside cast-offs. Particularly not Bridger or Mear.

 

It's good to see the PL race format is being used too. Think the key to success in this division is going to be strength in depth. 50 divided by seven means teams could line up with seven seven pointers.

Pleased the format has changed to that in the lower division.

Don't see Premiership as sustainable on the attendances at Rye but maybe the promotion are going to promote.

 

Not keen on Rye being in the top tier but will reserve judgement until I see the team lineup.

Didn't Emil Sayfutdinov win an under 21 qualifier at Rye about 10 years ago? So he likes the track...One down, six to go!

No, the EL only averages from this year will be x1.4 (press release stated +1.4 but the BSPA twitter confirmed it is EL ave x1.4). So it is a 5 point rider with an EL only average, of which there aren't many.

 

I really hope we aren't going to be putting out a team of Lakeside left-overs, if we are going to do it then lets do it properly and not be tracking riders who have fallen short of the mark in Lakeside colours season after season. I can see Eddie returning however and wouldn't be against that.

Didnt want this, but its going to be something different, so lets be positive. Anything other than Saturday nights with maybe the odd Sunday and I am screwed. Live too far away.
