Yes they must’ve taken Mulford’s British reduction off and then doubled it. But I don’t remember that happening previously.

Meadows has a bit of an awkward average. But at least he’s starting the season at reserve and Leicester are patient with riders, so he’ll get the time to practice and then hopefully improve.

Mulford averaged 4.37 for Redcar. So doubled equates to 8.74 🤷‍♂️

Has anyone else crunched the numbers? How is this team under the limit?

Simpson is an anomaly really on an extremely high average. Mainly due to him riding such few NL meetings, before not riding again last season. But fair play to KL for giving Simpson a team place. He’s clearly the type of rider the NL is designed for, but he must’ve been worried at that average.

Tbf the team needed a big hitter or two to come in just to be competitive against the rest of the league’s heat leaders.

3 very strong heat leaders and it’ll be interesting to see how Sadler gets on.

Yep they’ve made a mess of it! And previously the British reduction wasn’t taken off before doubling. But now probably depends if that club needs an extra 0.20 or not 😂

Absolutely correct. The points limit is set far too high this season.

Mulford has missed a season so it should be his converted Championship average at 8.74. After 2 seasons in the Premiership, should the NL really be the place that Mulford has to fall back into?

He’s outgrown the NL now really. But with such a high points limit, it’s no surprise that Oxford wanted him back.

Mods, can this be pinned please?

Congratulations to Marky_Mark who is this year’s winner! His team was Scott, Simpson, Foord, McGurk, Hodder, Summers & Rushen. A few people got caught out by picking a rider who averaged lower for 1 club than another, like Rushen at KL compared to Leicester. However not picking Rushen at all was a huge mistake. Only 3 people picked Simpson who doubled his average and only 1 person picked Etherington who also doubled his average 1. Marky_Mark 60.86 2. Szkocjasid 57.03 3. Millersfan444 56.14 4.

I’ll calculate this when the final averages are out, after the final fixtures on Wednesday.

Any links in English please?

Well it’s good to see the Buxton name back, whatever their nickname is 👍 I’ll have to make a point of travelling to the Peak District next summer to take in a meeting (with my coat!).

When did ‘any other reason’ get removed from the NL facility rulebook?

Well Jenkins scored 13 last season and he got 9+1 including heat 15 in the KOC fixture earlier this season!

It’s a crazily late start to the season for Plymouth. No surprise really that some of their riders tailed off at the end of the meeting.

I read that and it only states where the fan zone is and when it will be open. Not what is included before the racing starts.

Does anyone know what will be in the fan zone? Is it anything more than a rider signing session?

The downfall started when failing to replace Lambert with Declan in heat 12… Oh and the super heat. What a pointless race! Just let it be a draw!
