Riders will ho where the money is. 

Lawson was on a big guarantee at Lakeside and Eastbourne courtesy of Jon Cook in an era where guarantees were getting out of hand. 

He can't have a guarantee any more so riders will gravitate to Clubs who can guarantee income in another way. 

It won't be illegal for any Club linked sponsor to say offer 3 new bikes and a van... 

The long established riders like Lawson, Bomber, Scotty will be weighing up the best deals. 

Clubs with big Sponsors will be very attractive. 

Guarantees aren't being done away with - just limited!!

Batch? You must be getting desperate to go down that road! :D

Haha was looking at riders that might be available around the 7 average believe it or not he's the only one. 

It's only 3 years since he was top averaged riders in prem. Some day that riders going to come out again you'd think?

I didn't think it was as far back as 2014-15 he was in gps, but i don't think we will see much better form from him now a good rider when he wants tho.

I'm gonna go with no. Not in Champ, he just doesn't seem bothered about this league imo.

How can you limit a guarantee? It's either a guarantee or not a guarantee or is it just limited to what clubs can pay guarantees.

Pretty easily. 

Just as an example. 
 

Rider above a 7 average=Max £250 guarantee 

second string=£100 guarantee

Brennan riding at 5 last season will have kept his average in check . Would definitely have him back along with , as rumoured,  Harris , Nowak and Vissing to make a solid top 5 

Harris rumour might be getting more credibility now that he is not returning to Berwick.I thought he would prefer midweek track,but money is his big priority.Not sure how the fans would take it.

Not something I expected either but heard it from couple knowledgeable sources he could be coming back. Can probably name his price with this reduced points limit and his attractive average, will be much sought after

Well it is the silly season, have to wait and see. I would be very disappointed if he didn't return, he certainly gave everything when it mattered most.
