I actually think they've got this one almost spot on. Most of the NDL/NDT clubs only want 5 home fixtures, but most of the development riders want more than 10 meetings. So doubling up in a separate league & trophy is the only way to allow both to happen. The only thing I would have done differently would be to allow stand alone clubs (Kent) to race in both.

Glad that a speedway track remains operational in the South East of England, but the "eagles" !! OMG.   😞 Thought that the BSPA had consigned the Iwade Track to life imprisonment for running NORA meetings ? Some technicality about insurance. Have the NORA riders been given a pardon to allow them to ride in both leagues ? Arch enemy Norris as co promoter !!!!!!! Sounds more like the Eastbourne "Crusaders" invading Kent.  If there is mention of a Dugard in the mix, that will put the tin lid on it. 😞

Ford's are running a "nice little earner" down at Wimborne road on Wednesday nights with maestro  Muddleditch as TM in the 2nd division. Why risk moving up, running another team in the 3rd division, either or both?? As for attracting new riders, Ford's owe a great deal to Middledutch and his workshops and accommodation at Baillie House. Many a young Australian has lodged there on arrival from down under. I am sure Billy Cains will be made very welcome and given a great deal of advice.

As mentioned in an earlier post, THJ became disillusioned with certain aspects of the sport. Be good to see him posting again, as he didn't pull any punches, & was very witty.
