Absolutely no vision, no ambition and no competence being shown. Promoters?????.Think they would be better described as destroyers of the sport. I've had enough of them. I'm going to tear up this year's season ticket and bin it as a protest.

Another fixture list like last season will be a disaster for some Teams.Everything Rosy though in Promoter’s eyes.

What choice do fans have? Stop going?

Hasn't that always been the case though? Promoters saying "we've listened to the fans....." changed one little thing and ignored all the bigger issues. Same year after year.

1 home 1 away just because Oxford threatened to pull out of the championship because of running in 3 leagues this would be difficult for them

Tail wagging the dog imo

I don't understand that, surely if 8 clubs wanted 2 home & 2 away, they should just vote for that & Oxford stick to the Premiership (& NDL)?

One less team would make 2 home & 2 away more feasible.

Would it not financially stretch a few clubs if you doubled the amount of league fixtures? Its more clubs we want not less.

Absolutely ridiculous that everyone has to suffer due to Oxford. 
 

If Glasgow and ‘Eastbourne’ are also running NL teams, could Oxford not drop the Chargers and let the Championship do 2H2A for the good of the sport? As I can’t see where all of these NL riders are coming from anyways, unless I’ve missed that other NL clubs aren’t running.

Very much doubt Glasgow are doing an NDL team,  I personally would like them to have one ,but unfortunately any junior meeting we have had has been poorly attended even under 21 final

If they are going to go with the same format as this season, does that mean we’ll have a mid season break again like we had this year?

Given Berwick's history with Czech riders, how about Vaclav Milik? Although I'm not sure if a Saturday track would suit his foreign commitments.

40 point limit?

Kye Thomson 6.53
Drew Kemp 6.46
Vaclav Milik 6.17
Danyon Hume 4.87
Bastien Borke 4.84
Ace Pijper 3.00
Total 39.95
 
38 point limit?

Highly unlikely imo but a nice thought reference Milik.

You can’t really think that any rider seriously involved in Poland is going to ride for Berwick on on a Sat night.

Probably not, but with people telling me Kerr is going to Poole & Schlein is going to retire, with no suggestions of heat leader replacements trying to think of a strong Berwick team?

Think most of us are wondering about a strong Berwick Team especially if Schlein does retire.
