From a good source that I have been told that if the top flight becomes more of what the championship is now, then current Championship averages will stand and Premiership averages will be amended for those riders "technically" dropping down although it would become the "top flight" so doubtful a team could consist of Doyle, Ellis, Lawson, Nicholls & Cook - a team may be able to fit two of those names in a team, its going to be watered down, basically so teams can afford to pay a doyle etc. but have lower-order riders in the team who get paid less, so save in one hand to give away to your no.1 with the other.
I'm hearing and I may well be wrong that it could potentially be a 12 team top league built to championship standard, then a North/South divided National League consisting of 8 teams per division but we will find out for sure in a few weeks
