I was thinking along the lines of Edinburgh who run a bus to the track!

Do Berwick run supporters buses? I can get there by bus, but no late buses leave Berwick!

Only if the developing riders get Champ places, what if more NDL riders are forced out, due to low points limit, than get signed for Champ teams?

That's one thing NDL riders are missing this year, "track time" 12 matches over a season will not help their development! Be good if they were encouraged to get extra racing at IOW!

My Bandits dream team would be: 1. Scott Lamb 2. Adrian Rymel 3. Mark Courtney 4. Alan Mogridge 5. David Walsh 6. Andy Campbell 7. Lee Complin 8. Paul Clews

The teams outside the play-offs are miles behind, Glasgow have no worries about missing out on them!

Can't run with the same standard of team now with such a low NDL points limit!

Think the top 6 are well clear & the race to the play-offs will be dull!

Yep, next week!

Let's be honest Diamonds will be far stronger if they are using a guest to replace the missing Freeman!

Berwick should keep Etheridge at no 2 each week, seemed to work well against Plymouth!

That makes sense if the r/r is a lower averaged rider (reserves racing with no 1 to protect them) but if the number 1 gets a r/r ride on heat 8, seems a waste of using your top rider in an "easier" heat!

Still don't understand why 90% of teams only use r/r at no 2?

Surely it's the opposite, all riders can get a r/r ride!

With such a solid team, don't think Panthers need to replace Ostergaard!

Birmingham probably have a better chance of winning the KOC than reaching the play-offs, so why is it a "poxy cup match"?

If Hume was in heat 12 & beat Bickley, Poole wouldn't have been 6 down after 13 + King wouldn't have been in heat 14!

Been allowed ever since the tac sub was brought back!

I don't know why a development league has to be a weak league? As you say lots of riders "developed" into Champ riders when the NL was stronger: Kyle Bickley, Leon Flint, Jack Thomas, Tom Brennan, Drew Kemp, Jason Edwards, Dan Gilkes, Dan Thompson, Joe Thompson, Max Clegg, Connor Mountain, Jack Smith, Alfie Bowtell, Danyon Hume, Anders Rowe, Jordan Jenkins, Jordan Palin, Ryan Kinsley & Luke Ruddick

Personally I think Lawson has done better than expected, so Monarchs can only blame themselves for having unrealistic expectations of his ability!

Why do league meetings need to take priority? At this rate the KOC will be raced in cold & wet October!

It certainly does, means Edinburgh are more likely to make the play-offs!

Lawson has increased his average!

Did Mark Loram not win as a wildcard, the season he got 5 wildcards in 6 rounds?

Totally agree with your first point, if the fans don't turn up in large numbers clubs need to be sensible with wages!
