I wouldn’t think so, Oxford have a home NDL meeting against Edinburgh next week.

Of course,  I forgot it had been moved. [I should have remembered that as my preview of the NDLRC now appears in a Cheetahs prog - today's - instead of a Chargers one]

Where has the talk of a 1 match ban being given to Jenkins & Atkins come from? I've never heard of that rule?

I'm sure in previous seasons the NLRC is the only event that gets priority over the higher leagues, but I kinda expect to see Jenkins & Atkins racing for Oxford, with Kinsley & Killeen / Scott racing in the NLRC. Even if that's not a rule

SR 15.9 refers to the ban. SR 13.3 gives the NDLRC priority over higher fixtures.

Redcar have no riders in the NDLRC. Bailey is in Poland and Harrison is only a guest for Redcar anyway.

It’s just a case of if Jenkins and Atkins are willing to take a one match NDL ban to represent Oxford in the Championship

You do know who Crescent Girl is Martin ?

I find it that  missing a3rd Tier  Riders Championship can result in a ban ,but missing a Championship Riders Final because you are on holiday doesn’t.Plus Couple of others had an excuse.There is a rule that it doesn’t have to be your Top riders though.

Riss also scheduled to be riding in the long track nations meeting on the 24th. If all these riders are missing I can't get my head around why it's taking place on this date or why anyone is expected to pay £20 to watch it. Farce, joke sport!

Quite agree, but also will there be enough eligible riders, available to cover, those who are missing.

I can’t see may Bears fans bothering with the stream in the circumstances. 

To keep up with the spirit of it, I’ll see if I can get a guest to watch it for me instead.

Don't forget all these Bears riders will be missing legitimately. Poland and long track comes first remember! Nothing wrong with it the Charles Wright situation taught us that!

On CLRC 15.8.1 makes it clear that it is top riders by MA . No discretion.

For the NDLRC the rules couldn't be more explicit, and I quote verbatim:

15.9 NDL RIDERS CHAMPIONSHIP
015.9.1 Qualifying Criteria
To be confirmed

I had a bit of a go at BSSPL about this in my programme notes for Oxford v Redcar - in hindsight I think I should have been ruder.

Surely if the NDLRC is a bspa protected event, very few or no other meetings should be rearranged especially one at Oxford on a 3rd off day of running meetings 

You couldn’t make it up the way the sport is run.Important Playoff matches treated with contempt.With bonus points counting it is unfair to turn up with weakened Teams .IMO

Check Erik's Facebook page he's due to be riding in the long track of nations meeting on the 24th. He has also pulled out of Robbo's meeting.
