And dont you play the ‘he’s British’ card ahahaha it’s in the AGM notes as all riders who progressed through the NL. But would he meet the rules now and be allowed to return to the 3rd tier if/when his avearge drops? The rules of entry were tightened a while ago which wouldve ruled out most of those from years back It should be that criteria that applies We all know the AGM notes are not detailed enough to be sure of a the meaning of the full regulation Re Schlein - the same applies. Would he meet the criteria now to return to the 3rd tier (ignoring average restrictions) Thats how I would determine who qualifies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With regard to ambiguity of the AGM PR, it's already come to light that although the NL was specified, it extends back to the CL years as well. No doubt if you asked two promoters the situation, you'd get at least three different answers. It may be sorted out by March 15th, or not... 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robinh88 571 Posted November 24, 2018 (edited) Most of the teams listed already would give Berwick a good opportunity to be competitive in 2019. I'm perplexed by the now confirmed 38 point limit I do fondly remember the abundance a 45 point limit brought. Does the 38 point limit really encourage riders to maximise their point scoring over the season? Top riders at our level were a savoured thought/memory. What even is a top rider in today's PL? Nicholls and Harris have dropped down and achieved an average of eight. Certainly a good way of getting excess meetings. Bar Britain's big two, British riders participation was pretty minimal in the bigger leagues for 2018. Also sad to see Scott go thought he did a good job and had found a model that works for Berwick. Being competitive without splashing the cash like Glasgow continue to do. To conclude 2019 isn't really filling me with huge optimism. Maybe some good signings will change that. But it looks to me like another year of mediocrity and similar press releases to the ones I read, over the last few weeks and come to think of it years.

Uluru 80 Posted November 25, 2018 If the Bandits bring back their three Aussies, they'll compete! Last season was really impressive, and the team missed the playoffs by a hair. If they set up a team that wins at home and a Saturday night that entertains people, they could be good for another fifty years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

screm 8,053 Posted November 29, 2018 There`s a fans forum a week on Sunday, I`d be amazed if there weren't a signing or two, or three, announced then, maybe sooner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
