Berwick v Newcastle Ko Cup

Recommended Posts

Difficult to call unless the line ups are known. Guest or RR for Doolan? Will Garcia be fit? How will Newcastle’s new signing do? (2 from 3 on his last visit in 2016)

Newcastle line-up probably as expected. Worrall, Clegg, Bjerre, Wethers, TJ, Bukhave, Phillips. As for Berwick R/R wouldn't be a disaster at home, with NBJ, Gappmaier, Jye & hopefully a fit Garcia taking Kevin's rides.  However away leg a different proposition looking around who is available if we went down guest route, Paul Starke got double figures there for Glasgow earlier in the season. 30 years since we won the KO Cup would be nice to have a good cup run this season. Bandits to win home leg 51-39.

From the Bandits' Facebook Page

"Shielfield Park is the place to be in Berwick this Saturday night and we are feeling generous...
Simply purchase your match day magazine and receive a free drink voucher!

Cash in your voucher at any Bandits outlet on Saturday night and receive any beverage of your choice on us"

 

Also repeating the Kids for Free ticket and prize draw - winner gets a Bandits' Junior Bodycolour - which proved very popular on its debut against Sheffield.

If the youngsters haven't got a ticket through their schools Buddy will have some at the turnstiles and they are available from the Box Office entrance too.

Do season pass holders get a drinks voucher?

am not saying anyone is cheating or anything like,,, but Stark in place of Doolan at Brough is hardly a fair swap ;)

I agree.  A Pom for an Aussie just isn't the same -- but Berwick still have two Aussies in their side against just one for Newcastle.   They win.

Have the rules changed as far as a missing top 5 riders is concerned?  I noticed last week, Matty Wethers guested for Edinburgh (in place of Josh Pickering), when no one else was missing.  Last year it was R/R for one missing top 5 rider and guest(s) and R/R for more than one missing rider.
