Middlesbrough Tigers 2026

Personally im happy to have a better level of rider on show and to act as a benchmark for aspiring riders. The dilution of the NL over the previous few years has led to riders being forced up into the CL without any confidence building meetings and also riders signed into the CL who are far from ready. Id rather see competent riders showing the way than hopeful riders.

Exactly, but some seem to think because the word development was added to the name all the better/older riders shouldn't be in it. I am all for a harder league a younger riders beats a Morley/ jody scott consistently there at least around a level to move up instead of 15 maximums with no competition and chucked in cl to early surely thats better for development.

Wow!

Possibly the worst refereeing decisions I’ve seen in 50 plus years of watching speedway costing Oxford the match, take a bow Mr. Hunter !

I can't disagree. How can 2 riders be excluded when one was laying his bike down, and Mudgeway fell alone in a live race and didn't get excluded either?
