It’s hard to see potential buyers jumping in without knowledge of what’s going with Leagues etc..Probably all done and dusted behind the scenes.(BSPA are more secretive and closed shop than the Masonic Lodge)

Shame it's looking like 36.00 then.

As usual the weaker teams hold all the cards,evn though such a low limit won't benefit them.  They just think it will.

These teams suggested if there's a 36 point limit look pretty decent to me. 

Maybe could make for a more exciting league if there's more riders of a similar ability competing.

Admission prices won’t drop though to match the drop in standard.

Who are these 'weaker teams'?

Brum & Ox are gone and Lynn didn't want a lower limit this year so almost certainly won't for 2026.

Maybe Sheffield and Leicester might require lower costs especially with the loss of tv revenue?

Would imagine Musielak will be on allot of people (Stars fans aside) want list as he struggled at Perry Barr and starts 2026 on a 6.3ish average.  But it's not just UK where his average has gone down, in Poland's second tier he topped the averages a few years back with in excess of 10:00 (2.26 a ride) he's now not much over 8:00 (2.07 a ride).  Still in his time as a Tiger he was always unbeatable at Owlerton on my (rare) visits.
