Look at the amount of complaints that were made when Belle Vue signed Robert Lambert after the cut-off date, due to Max Fricke's injury. Maybe a 7 day grace period could be allowed for injuries / retirements after 75% of fixtures are completed, in this case Glasgow would get an extra few days to replace Hausl, but have had long enough to replace Howarth.

We cant have only one 8pt rider in each team next season, at the moment 8 teams have at least 2 riders on 8pt average Those riders will be lost in the Championship next year. Build your team to the points limit, those who cant thats your own problem.

We need to emulate the Polish model and reward the league winners with a big pot of cash to make it relevant.  Similarly the GP’s must offer a large incentive for winning a round and the overall title given its success and status in the sport.  Does anyone know how much more an Extraliga team gets for winning the final and what percentage that win adds to their overall income? Also what are the big bucks for winning a GP (per heat) bearing in mind it could involve 10 heats (3 sprint & 7 heats), compared to the irrelevant amounts on offer for a UK domestic heat?

I'd be more worried about weakening the reserve berths. Maybe look for new 8 & 4 point riders. Not easy to find anyone at this stage of the season though.        

He done the same last week and knocked out max perrys cut out!

I've said that for 5 years now to the point of absolute frustration. However I'm convinced it will continue as this regardless.
