Personally think Luke k will do a good job if allowed time to settle in the championship. Lots of speculation of how the new riders will do on this thread from my point of view regardless of scores or averages if our rider is better at the end than the start it's been a success. The league is about development and before anyone has a fit I know everyone likes to win but for us it's not the be all and end all . If the rider succeeds so does the team .

Yep I know I have been on here long enough

Yep I am and I won't get upset everyone is entitled to an opinion.

No I go to every meeting I can only time I miss is when the lad is racing and that will continue. What I have always said is I'm not bothered if scunny win or loose as long as I'm entertained. If you can see a post contradicting that please post think you could be quoting Phillipsr

Could I ask is there a reason why the support won't turn out to get behind the comets. Personally think the teams very good for the NDL will be very competitive and good to watch. Plenty of racers in the team to give the fans something to cheer about.

Think it's a 2hour 30 minute drive not the greatest journey in the world but quite scenic

Rob is a great fella and always tells you as it is most of those who criticise him have never took the time to talk to him .

I for one will take as much advice as can be offered

Can't imagine why a young rider who wants to develop would want to leave the so called best track in the country that runs limited meetings and is not readily available for practice at anytime .

Its a misnomer about clubs releasing riders after the end of a season. All riders are self employed regardless of who's asset they are if they decide to ride elsewhere there is nothing the parent club can do about it .

Don't look like this was much of a well informed guess

7.15 again today can't beat the service here

A rule ain't a rule till it's officially a rule

Looking at the list 2004 seems to of nee a productive year for riders. With at least 9 of those riders coming through Neil Vatcher's youth program, all the other years seem to have similar numbers, with the increased points limit the league is actually easier to get into for higher average riders than the last couple of years even if a team picks a 12 point rider still scope to have a decent team . would also like to know the team who was interested in joining or is it just hear say.

Fantastic post I personally believe riders should be graded at the start of the year for team allocation and should be regraded at the halfway stage of the season. With riders only being able to go up or down 1 grade regardless of the points they are averaging. exactly as you say there should never be a kyran v anders race if one is a heat leader and the other a reserve should be heat leaders v heat leaders and heat leaders v second strings. The others should then be second strings v second strings , reserve's v reserves and reserves v second strings. Riders should race the grade above or below only . Grading should be A heat leaders ,B second strings , C reserves , D reserves in first season or not achieved a 3 point real time average during previous season. D graded riders should stay at that grade all year

Are you sure as you quote what are the old rules . It's been muted that it's potentially being opened up to commonwealth riders as well

Just give the money to the save Mildenhall fund

Well you can have it from the horses mouth no big money chucked at my rider. We declined more from others for his services

Hook third at that level, and Edinburgh holding NDL to ransom if they can't use him

God looking side is that

Sonny is only just 14 so not old enough

Yep. Ours are not done by mail a little fella drops it off in his car every Thursday only late once which was a Friday since going to subscription. Brilliant service

Ours arrived as usual on time this morning

Thought Lee worked on railways so hardly full time maybe they could go when he's on strike again

Not a bad guess
