If it's gonna be all the same riders in league & trophy, will travelling expenses not be the same? May mean less visiting fans, but I don't think they'd expect many at Development league level. I guess they could always hold junior challenge matches against Workington, Edinburgh & Redcar to judge crowd levels? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
