TheWellBehavedWorrall Posted 12 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 12 hours ago I like the sound of Flint and Thompson leading the line. I think there’s a lot of potential there and significantly more to come. Both continuing their development in the Premiership and abroad can only benefit us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The jump has always been pretty big but the dropping of minimum average to 2.00 has seen a lot given places / chances that wouldn't have been if it was 3.00. The reality is the gulf between the top at bottom at CL has been to high for a while, 10 point and 2 point riders in the same race is always going to create a big disparity...doesn't mean i know what the solution is though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Championship isn't too strong, it's the Premiership that's got weaker. It would help young riders develop if the Championship had rising stars. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would insist they must get 4 rides too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably a bit of both in reality but the jump from NDL to Champ is too big; as I've said elsewhere doubling up also needs to be brought under control and be a means of bringing on young brits and not topping up the salaries of Masters, Harris, Pickering etc. People find it hard enough to identify with their team and riders without doubling up/down. As for Championship RS's, absolutely agree. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is important to down grade the reserve function as there is a wide disparity in abilities which resulted in uneven team strengths in the top tier in the past.

flagrag Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Have a feeling that Seth Norman may be the 2.00 rider that Glasgow will go for has good equipment and already done plenty of laps around Ashfield quite a bit of raw potential with decent equipment and mechanics.
