Howarth already signed up back at Glasgow next season alongside Harris as the top 2 there so can rule him out of your plans.

Wonder if AB Race Cruisers / AutoCraft will move up as main sponsors as been secondary on the fork covers for a couple of seasons now

Thought the AGM had been moved from this week to the start of January??

The four points I was told earlier today were : 1 - The 36 points limit for 2026 now 37 points 2 - Only 5 teams at moment committed to the Premiership (Belle Vue, Ipswich, Kings Lynn, Leicester and Sheffield). However Chris Louis has threatened to pull Ipswich from the Premiership and put club for sale. He will only run in the Premiership if it has a minimum of 6 teams 3 - The consortium to run a team at Oxford in the Premiership have pulled the plug on that 4 - One 2025 club has some serious financial issues to resolve with a lot of their riders owed in excess of £10k, doesn’t take a genius to work out which club it is. So not exactly good news even if the points limit goes up a bit.

I heard earlier today that the new limit for 2026 has been changed from 36 points to 37 points 🤷‍♂️

He’s definitely not at Leicester (Douglas & Masters at 1 and 5 for them)

Team A is 95% correct just Nathan Abblitt instead of Declan Kennedy

Also that’s a big change of tact from last season, will out an end to a 6 pointer at reserve that’s for sure

Fricke incoming, that’s a big chunk of the 36 points used up

Heard this consortium wanting to run Premiership at Oxford in 2026 under another name have looked at Oxfords historical rival clubs in Swindon and Reading, not sure how much the locals would support and if those from either club no longer running would travel that far for a ‘home’ meeting. Maybe a more generic name like ‘Thames Valley Titans’ (other nicknames are available 😜)

Been told that by two current riders that it’s 36 in Premiership and 40 in Championship and they are signed up in teams built to those limits already

Any snippets of team news at awards do last night?

Swap Becker for Dan Thompson and that top 5 plus RS is what we’ll see in 2026, just not sure the number 6 is yet

Limit is definitely 36 points plus Rising Star for 2026
