Sheffield V Berwick 6/4/17 Sgbc

[4thbender 382]

One match in and the team's already being propped up with guests. The Owlerton jinx strikes again - before the season's even started. How often in the last 3 years have we seen Sheffield lose heat leaders to injuries whilst riding for other teams?

We've seen it when they've been riding for us. It's unfortunate, but he wasn't actually 'riding' for Somerset (who I believe have first call on his services) when the injury happened.

Yes the Sheffield injury jinx strikes again!

Should be a good test for the Tigers tonight, but again with a guest riding it won't give a true presentation of how strong they actually are at Owlerton.

I have no idea how anyone keeps up with the rules in the sport

They don't

Simply not good enough again from Berwick, we need to start looking to strengthen up sooner rather than later, with Berge and Carr the first to go for me.

Good to see Havvy using all his Speedway knowledge to sign the Bandits a great team (though tbf, I had them down as being an okay team)

Maybe not too late to enter this Berwick team in the National League as it hasn't started yet.Anybody want to start a Berwick 2018 post?

They wont be the last to get pumped at Owlerton this season , so Bandit's fans shouldn't panic just yet

All early season play off candidates

Think we {Berwick} are going to have to rely on our home form to keep us in with a chance of playoffs, apart from possibly Scunthorpe away wins are going to be very difficult this season. No excuses though well done to Sheffield.

Sheffield are a very very good team make no bones about they will be right up there come the end of the season

Can see us having a few dodgy home results if things do not pick up,we certainly don't look like play off candidates if early season form is anything to go by.

One of Berwicks issues will be that Bridger won't have ridden half the tracks he goes to that a year, I didn't think he looked as bad as his score suggested and reckon he will do ok most places he goes - he has never be known for being a big track specialist
