Quite a lot of them. Just research back over the years (I can't be bothered to name them now and will doubtless be criticised in some quarters for this?) but many lads deemed to have great potential fade away. Okay I will give one example from the Conference League days at Wimbledon - Danny Betson. Now I'll duck as I get shot down - AGAIN!

got to agree, you watch some of the nl riders and think give him a few years. a few years pass and you realise there not as good as you thought they were going to be. the gulf between nl and pl is massive. look at Charles wright at buxton. looks a very good rider at nl but struggled when moved up. not picking on Charles I remember seeing him at buxton when he was about 15 and thought he may be a good un,not sure when that was but I reckon about 5 years ago at least

I will give you another, James Wright, I saw him at Buxton before he had even ridden PL, and thought tremendous prospect, this year he has retired from the Sport, or at least is having a break.

Thought he had improved of late after watching him in action at Leicester on Saturday.

Im not sure what meetings you get your figures from, but at the moment they may be a little mis leading bcuz, Dudley have only ridden in 4 NL home meetings so far, so naturally there averages will be expected to drop as away meetings are ridden. The top 2 riders i have seen at Dudley this season are Steve Boxhall and Charles Wright.
