scaramanga 895 Posted August 18, 2012 How utterly pathectic,I take it your in the brigade that thinks Berwick Speedway has only been running under this promotion,well heres the news,it hasnt.It ran to varying degrees of success for quite a few years,Waite also introduced news riders and built up a reasonable asset base,there were a few duds along the way but mostly he brought in decent PL riders. Read Bigeddiecheks post,I agree with that. peter waite was a master in finding new 3pt reservesnot afraid to go looking for talanted riders yes he could wind people up and to a point i think he enjoyed doing that but when he was interested he served berwick well wish other clubs had a backer/owner with the same passion to improve the club instead of trying there best to run it into the ground so no one wants to take it over when they pull out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many regard him as a very good team builder. I must say this is only a rumour, but it was one that was floating around Shielfield tonight too. No smoke without fire, as the saying goes.

Think Peter would oonly put his millions into his beloved Bandits .Sincerly hope the Glasgow can find someone to invest in them ,Speedway in the north needs all its teams.

Shadders 4,134 Posted August 19, 2012 I am sure you are wrong on this one Really hope you're right. Unlike some of our Glaswegian football friends I don't want to see any club go to the wall. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigeddiechek 1,094 Posted August 22, 2012 Heard yet more rumours tonight. He's had a big cash-in with an investment, and thinks he can get Glasgow at knock-down price. Not quite straight from the horses mouth, buy certainly the nosebag. Looking forward to seeing the Wee Man back next year, if not sooner! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
