think Lawson and Summers doubling up and Summers Swedish jaunts might be making then jaded towards the end of the season,probably don't have the back up that top riders have.
Tigers obviously just done enough to get through ,but I think they will be might struggle over 2 legs against the better teams ,Garcia and Ayers were very poor tonight.Worrel was excellent but Lawson and Summers seem to have hit a bad patch.Interesting times ahead.
Better still if the Promoters get together and don't pay out points money they can't afford.Its pretty obvious the sport is in financial difficulties.You only have to look at crowd levels to see why some many clubs are struggling.
When you here some of the points money being paid in NL would be hard trying to make it pay with no local teams like you say.Still we don't know what is really going on behind the scenes so no need to panic.
