Just to confirm doing rest of the season at Lynn. Can be at No. 7 until end of August. Bringing 3 bikes plus 4 engines plus Polish mechanic. (No GTR door stop - lol) had good season with Wilki Krosno. Last home meeting broke the track record there in 68.32secs 410m Poland’s longest track. Really looking forward to the rest of season at Lynn and to try to make playoffs. Been asked by a number of teams if he wishes to double up, but has refused all offers as wants to concentrate on Lynn. Hope this gives you info you wanted. See you 25th July

1. Lion Madsen 2. Antonio Lindor Back 3. Toffee Chrisp Harris 4. Freddie Lindtgren 5. Matej Starbar 6. Black Magic Janowski 7. Vaclav Milik Tray A team that would have been superbly led by Neil Quality Street as Team Manager I am sure..

NBJ is coming over to UK to ride for Berwick so hardly resting cos of his illness and he has accepted at least one guest booking! Why can they not just tell the truth and say they think Ricky will perform better? Instead of half excuses.

Track record means a fast track, not necessarily a racing track, with different racing lines.

That's quite right....it was a 'track' imbalance....however, it opens up a whole new debate about whether the rider has quick enough reactions to control the bike, like Tungate did a bit later on and also it questions the rider's balance/style.....being of a small/light frame probably doesn't help JB, as I'm sure a hell of a lot of strength is needed to hang on in those situations. He's a brave rider, but may be doesn't have the physical attributes needed to avoid sticky situations? just a thought.......

Health and safety would go into meltdown just looking at that photo. What Berwick speedway (and football) would give for a crowd like that these days.

Would not fit the packet if a different shape.

You do realise this Debbs isn’t me?

I just can’t fathom why anyone would want to make the inside line at one of the best speedway tracks around so grippy thus turning it into a one liner. Baffling.

A report in Speedway World gave the eight qualifiers for the final of this competition, to be held on 21st June. They were Dennis Newton, winner of the meeting with 15, Jim Tebby 14, Stan Bedford 13, Dave Slater 11, Gil Goldfinch 11, Stan Crouch 9, Bernie Aldridge 9, Alan Briggs 8.

The track isn’t ruined. There has been some fantastic racing on it this season but Monday wasn’t good. Seems fairly simple but the inside needs to be slicker than the outside. Then you get the quality of racing that we all want and know can be produced on that track.

I think Ablitt’s problem is he never really did much competitive racing on a 500? As opposed to the Thompson twins and Palin who did a lot of before meeting races and the whole winter amateur meetings at Scunthorpe etc. He only raced the 250 then when it came to racing the 500 he actually had very little experience on it hence why he’s so raw and crashes?

Lynn used to be one of the best race tracks in the country, so it's nothing new.

Bomber has put on twitter he asked if he could travel out on Friday and was told no.

Shows how wide track used to be. The days before 2 metre fences.

Glad Jacob Bukhave went to try them out and had 3 wins and a third place there.

Ipswich certainly weaker without him.

I would love to follow the team away from home but commitments don't allow at the moment. One day hopefully. You're right, I am positive about Berwick speedway, basically because I enjoy my Saturday nights with friends. I often think that speedway fans must be the most negative people around. The sport is absolutely unique, speed and power up close.

Hope so as he deserves a place

Totally agree with mmmmethanol on that score. Ben has been at No 2 all season & scored quite well at Arlington but has struggled away. But this is the case for most No 2’s at every other club in the Championship away from their home track. Ben has not had the luxury of riding down at reserve this season like others have at other clubs & OK Jason is probably worthy of a run in a Championship team, I just hope it doesn’t effect his confidence like others who have tried the step up, only to eventually be dropped and lose interest in riding speedway & calling it a day. Another thing to note is that with this change being made Georgie will now ride at No 2 meaning only having 4 programmed rides & not a possible 7 rides as he would have at reserve resulting in the possible loss of the big scores he was achieving at Arlington. Personally I think this change would have been justified if 2 riders Ben and Kyle as the other had been dropped enabling the Eagles to bring in Jason as a 2 pointer & a potential 7 pointer to be the 4th heat leader. Could have brought in Bradley Wilson Dean if he is fit.

Speedway does have some weird rules, surely you should have to replace an injured rider to stop the use of guests rather than sack somebody else?

Bates fights his bike, he doesn't ride it. There will only be one winner, in the end. Difficult decisions coming up for Mr Dickson, don't envy him.

This initiative with the two-valve engines, provided and owned by the club, is great and can really save the sport, as it will save so much expenses. At least at youth or amateur level, it would be so much cheaper for the riders to compete in speedway. For the fans, the racing would certainly not be less exciting to watch. The engine tuners won't like it, though !

aye , agreed a deal and then pulled out due to the millionaires offering him a bigger deal !
