Skidder and SS seem to be coming from the same place. Are Glasgow gonna make changes? I'm assuming Ulle out for rest of the season? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCookie 753 Posted August 11, 2022 Morley, McGurk, Pearson all reserves. Etheridge started the season there. Lambert (?) and Hume have been there. Shocking. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm assuming Ulle out for rest of the season? No point in a double change as would need to drop the averages back down to 42 or whatever we started with. Had a suspicion a certain Mr vissing might be used for ulle but not sure his status, 28 day must be up now? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks to several teams the whole league has been a mockery this year and I can't see next year being any better. The only way the sport is going to regain any credibility, in my opinion, is to go back to a single league of a decent standard with no doubling up (or down) and teams that can't attract riders amalgamate with the NDL and hopefully bring up the standard and give young/new riders more experience. Yes I can hear riders saying they need two teams to earn a living but back before doubling up diluted the sport world class riders rode in BL div 1 for one team only and earned however they could.
