Looks like another “watering down” if all these rumours are true

Still a 40 point limit but teams are only allowed one rider over an 8 point average.

Well there were 12 riders exceeding an 8 point average. What happens to the other 3 if still 9 Championship teams and they all want a team place ?

Howarth, Nicholls and Kemp would all be under 8 after reduction, so would leave 9 riders from last year over 8.

Yeah but they will finish 2025 over 8 no. I have questions whether the reduction should come into this for reasons of fairness. I don't even see the logic behind why they would want to impose this 1 rider over 8 proposal anyway ?. Should be able to build a team within the team building points limit as you choose.

Was something I questioned as well but was told that it’s whatever they will be starting 2026 so they are including reductions. Don’t agree with the duo either agree with what you say should be allowed to build how you want as long as it’s within the limit.

All teams know about it and are building with this in mind.

Exactly why have a points limits +additional rules on how too use it.

As you know there's been several meetings to agree to whatever the rules are for 2026, the AGM is where these decisions are officially voted on and passed, but I believe in the past things have changed when the vote was counted and they had to go down another route

When Newcastle were still running in 2022, during one of our last ever home meetings, the opposition Manager said that one rider over an 8pt average per team would be fairer to the likes of Newcastle as he actually felt sorry for us.  His team had two over the 8pt average in the team at the time.
