Sorry I Will rephrase that,the standard is higher but it’s the same riders beating each other.There are certainly no superstar 10 pt average riders even though it is a weakened League.
It’s obviously about trying to hold on to TV money,there is very little difference in the standard in the 2 leagues.Bjarne finish up 6th in “top” league averages for Panthers.Self Interest,but will never be admitted or sorted out.
The only Official article I have read is Bomber has signed for Bandits. There has been nothing Official that I have read regarding the Oxford situation regarding which league or riders.
6,13,8,11+1,7,13.
Thats was his points in matches for Eastbourne this season.Don’t think that would push him up given the amount of matches he rode for Glasgow.
Can see their point ,what is the point of trying to break into a sport where most of the Competitors have 2 Clubs and chance of aTeam place is a long term prospect.The leagues need a restructure to help riders break into Teams.It won’t happen though.
They are doing nothing to address the problems,it’s pretty obvious we have to start again and restructure our league to suit the sport in GB .Any rider the becomes decent isn’t going to hang about here.Instead we are concentrating on giving the riders what they want, to the detriment of the sport.
It’s obvious they never thought about averages when discussing Rising Stars.
Flint and Hume are not even 4* ,so do they move up this season.Wait with baited breath to see what they dream up
“You heard “ that’s the usual quote ,what you mean is you don’t know!!People need to stop worrying about other Promotions.IMO it makes no difference to the big picture.Crowds Ihave seen at Ashfield on my visits suggest they are doing things right.At least if they pack it in,you can be the first to say “I told you so”.One thing for sure though they will have paid their riders if it ever happens, unlike a lot of others.
