4BM 116 Posted September 5, 2023 Belle Vue’s to lose this year now that Sheffield are without their number 1 and Wolves and Leicester are hot and cold. The Aces need this one as with the averages the existing team is on there’ll need to be changes ahead unless the BSPL committee put a decent average limit in place instead of the ridiculous 39 points which limits the higher averages riders Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Teams should average out at 42, so 39+3(rs) should mean team strengths are similar to the previous season. It's actually slightly above a 42 limit as all the RS are above 3.00 now. Riders might have to swap clubs, but in theory none of them should have to miss out on a team spot. If there will be a Premiership next season is a bigger question than the points limit.

Averages the smallest of considerations at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
