Think there was 48 thou there the year I went to the world final in 86 when Gundo won it.

Boy those lads have put a shift in this winter .

Whoever wins the "league" there is no kudos to it is there? I think attendences are going to be woeful after this close season, its difficult to see how the sport recovers from this now.

Doubling Up is the reason.... No other.... Got to get those team places available..... Riders ear marked could have also turned down places elsewhere, which won't go down too well if the "Sixth Team" doesn't come to the tapes... The positive if they don't run is that there won't be any need to use guests contracted to other top tier teams, as these lads who cannot DU will be available to cover absentees... Surely that is what they will do?

The sports own ‘constitution’ is being broken to try desperately to find another club, but then the sports rules are constantly being broken so what’s another one.

Even though you wrote it twice…..you couldn’t be more wrong. I’ve attended as many NDL meetings as Championship and been to Mildenhall many times and always enjoyed it. I just have an opinion you obviously disagree with.😊

Definitely not. I’d lump Ipswich in with that too. A four team league isn’t feasible, so Ipswich were even more important than Northampton. They simply needed them to run and had no choice but to wait.

In a "normal" season would any other club starting out be given this much time weeks before a season starting , I think not. Only because of the lack of teams in the Premiership is so much leeway been given to Northampton.

With BSN saying their pricing structure for their streaming packages will be released by the end of the Month, then it has to be this coming week that we’ll finally know whether Northampton are in or out. BSN must surely have been given the nod on when to expect the confirmation of league structures for them to reveal that their price will be confirmed by the end of February. Morris in this weeks star also said they’ve now got to the point where decisions HAVE to be made. A Sale confirmation at Ipswich is also expected this coming week (stop laughing at the back) so we’re approaching the end game all round. Probably….

Maybe they have been trying to get riders to compete as they didn't have enough to make a decent Championship?... They could have been spending months working in the background to see if Bjorn Knutsson could come out of retirement and be able to get some gear together in time and ride....

I believe so, but only after they've moved to Dunsinane.

A fixture list is only a guide really, the weather and the nature of the sport means even more than ever a meeting is in the balance unless it’s been dry for days and zero rain is forecasted.

The only GP for which tickets aren’t yet available. Imagine my surprise…

If a rider in the championship has missed a season or more in the NDL, but has had a NDL average within the last 5 seasons, then they go back into the NDL on their last NDL average, UNLESS when their current Championship average is doubled and it’s higher than that last NDL average, within the last 5 seasons, then that rider will return to the NDL on the higher of the 2 averages. Jake Mulford’s current championship average when doubled is lower than his last NDL average in 2024, hence why Jake is on an 8.67 average in the NDL in 2026. I can’t make it any more clearer than that!

On social media, there was an Xray of the plates and screws in his leg.

It's the Birnam Wood Badgers who are the mystery 6th team isn't it?

Just seen the latest update from Ipswich. First Witch When shall we three meet again In thunder, lightning, or in rain? Second Witch When the hurlyburly's done, When the battle's lost and won. Third Witch That will be ere the set of sun. First Witch Where the place? Second Witch Upon Foxhall Heath. ALL Fair is foul, and foul is fair: Hover through the fog and filthy air.

I believe there may be an update soon Bob... Telling us that there is going to be an update soon...

Um no and no, your not missed much, well actually nothing😒

Still fully committed every time he goes to the tapes ,we should make the most of him hope he has safe and successful season .

Fair point,but its the old "duffers" as you put it who keep the sport going, year on year more old "duffers" stop going and the aint no younger generation to take their place so it'll go twit's up eventually attendance wise sadly.
