I'm hearing 40 , hope it's raised to keep the better riders in , and keep the product entertaining for the stand alone clubs to draw in supporters.

I think the amount of clubs Garrity has ridden for in his career shows there's not a lot of loyalty there . Some guys move on because there not wanted while others go for the best deals, which is fair enough if it's there income .

Good on Garrity for having the balls and using the FTR how I thought it was supposed to be used.
All tier one riders that have done two years should be made to move up and the tier two riders should have moved into to there places followed by a new group of tier 2s
Coventry have used the system how it was designed to be used.

Surely riders like Garrity , Newman should be moving into the teams 1 to 5 , with the better tier 2 riders like Sarg , etc
moving up to tier 1 , allowing a new crop in at tier 2.
Or isn't that the idea.

Not really sure this is going to achieve a lot re the 3 point nl rider. , I think if this was the way they wanted to go then the number 6 should have also had to be british, there's no reason that clubs won't go down the road of having 3 point foreigners and building there teams the way the successful Edinburgh team was built this season.
That could leave british riders with real averages between 3 and 5 on the dole que.
