If your sources at right in thinking now Aussies etc are not in the NDL this year maybe a few other things were in the minds of the BAPA this year 1:with a couple of teams closing,team places would be limited so acted to protect place for British yougsters 2:to avoid situations like the Tyson Nelson affair last year 3:to prevent uncertainty in the league like last year where Mark Jones and Micky Dyer were included when many said they shouldnt have been and in previous years take Taylor Poole for example,didnt he ride for the Tigers starting on a 3,but yet came into PL on a 5??????? 4:riders leaving before the season ends and happened to Buxton and Newport last year examples like this could[and some will say should have]thrown the league into mayhem,with riders being removed and points taken away which no one wants to see The BSPA or who ever has to take some blame for this situation maybe,as last year they gave permision to Len Silver to use Tyson Nelson,everyone seemed to know the day before that he shouldnt have ridden as it turned out other NL promotions had tried to use him,yet they allowed it,then had to take his points off the lad as well as valuable away points for Rye House Maybe just maybe,having only British riders in the league,these situations wont happen again Its now to to the riders who maybe given a chance in the NL to take it!!!good luck

Does Camo Heeps have uk parentage somehwere down the line?or uk passport,if he has i believe that racing in the NL wont be a problem for the lad

yes but wondered if the new type of theing that works in EL/PL also works in NL now??

Exactley my point Dave!!!!!!! has it ever occured to you that the "bumper fun book" was consulted in the AGM

And the Aussie leagues welcome alot of brits do they Dave!!!!! I think you will find that its nothing to do with Little Englanders as you continue to put it,more like the borders agency new rules from i think april time last year!!

by doing that is what made me come up with the previous post John,think Will missed a 2 and a . off his post!!!!

A club manager that says 3.95 less 5% is 3,85!!!! get your calc out,mine says different!!!

SCB,is that how the averages are working this year in the NL,PL average x 2??

Nikko,are you sure Jarran didnt get a 2.5% reduction,not 5%??? he finished the 2009 PL season at scunny on a greensheet of 4.09

is it 5% decuction thats Brits get?? i thought is was 2.5%???

nice looking team but i get it at 42.5 ish

or maybe he had him signed before the meeting yesterday!!!!! or was quick off the mark last night!!!!! good signing all the same

Maybe not HT but neither of them dropped the BSPA in it to tune of around 10k

maybe Belle Vue are one of the "two" teams which i presume the other is Peterborough???

is that who you work the averages for the NL,pl average x 2????

I dont believe the Chapmans had anything to with it the decision at all,purely gossip,you could argue that Chapman saved mildenhall that year from yet another mid season closer From what i can gather,the BSPA got there fingers burnt with a fair bit of cash last year,and i would think that they are wary of the same thing happening,and the BSPA`S money belongs to the promotors,so when a club shuts down it cost them all a few quid,and the way things are at the momment,there is very few who cant afford that Instead of typing gossip on here maybe you should look at the bigger picture, Sad thing is the fantastic Tigers supporters havnt got a team to watch this year

he will be alot more than 7.90!!!!

You were there then good well tell us what realy happened

Any chance of a , or even a . or maybe a ?......... Would be good to include someone like Bekker,although the team is there for development,previous seasons team have show scunnys tendency to use a no1 and reading "big stu" in the comic this week indicates theres no change there,Paul Cooper as an alternative to Bekker anyone?

Great to see Gary Irving returning to the saints again for 2011,love watching Gary round the EWR,nice start to team building Scunny just maybe the team to beat this year if the improvement continues from 2010

If i have read the Boarders Agency correct it impossible to have Aussies in the NL due to the work permit thing,i dont the think the SCB or BSPA can do much about it,hence when questions are asked about certain chappies in the NL last year, folk go quiet,as clearly they shouldnt have been riding,the rye house use of Tyson Nelson confirms it, The lads with british passports can tho as again it BA rules not BSPA/SCB,if i have read it correct it would be against the rules to stop them This is only as i have read the rules but i could be wrong but it seem fairly clear

An inspired signing by the mighty saints i think

Really????

Then Dudley should have his points removed then,simple as,same as Rye House did with Tyson Nelson when they fitted Dyer in i could never understand how they did on the averages,, the fantastic Tom Perry should have has new average if i recall

Was in our local paper yesterday that Richie will ride for the mighty saints as well as Newcastle in the PL
