Normski 1,315 Posted May 13, 2022 (edited) Berwick welcome Redcar in what should be their toughest home meeting so far of the season. With Bomber away on Team GB duty Bandits call in former Bandit Nick Morris as a guest, another former Bandit hopefully reproducing his performance of 2 weeks ago Lee Complin guests for the injured Ty Proctor R/R also in place for Leon Flint. Redcar who have won here in their previous 2 visits have 2021 Bandit Kasper Andersen in their ranks as a more than able backup to Wright, Riss & Kerr. I think Berwick has the edge at reserve and will go for a 50-40 scoreline. Edited May 13, 2022 by Normski change text Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
screm 8,049 Posted May 14, 2022 Sun is out, weather set fair. Major task for the home side tonight and last nights home defeat at the hands of Poole won`t have helped. Redcar do have riders that can cause Berwick problems round Shielfield, hopefully our guests perform and we take advantage of good old R/R 47-43 either way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stuntdouble 118 Posted May 14, 2022 Gonna be close me thinks. Complin could make a massive difference if he performs like the last time out at Berwick. R r should be strong enough to match Leon’s average score. Hopefully Morris performs as bomber a big miss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wtf 621 Posted May 14, 2022 Must be pretty galling for the Berwick faithful to watch Bomber ride everywhere else this week apart from his home club. I know he's on Team GB duty, but it's not like he's the future for team GB is it. But apparently It's all about the future when you listen to Rob Painter? Sure he's riding well, but I know if I were a Bandit fan I'd be a little miffed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fromafar 10,331 Posted May 14, 2022 Tricky one,Redcar good on paper but disappointing somewhat on the track,but dangerous opponents at Shielfield where they usually perform well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bomber is on great form but like you say he is not the future. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn`t disagree with you but speedway fans up and down the Country are used to seeing their riders racing elsewhere rather than for their own club. Berwick aren`t weakened to much IMO as Nick Morris is a more than capable replacement for Harris. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely a banana skin match for us… we’re a better line up then last year and we have 2 very adequate replacements. I’d have preferred to go with our own line up to beat the Bears but there we are. 48-42 me thinks! Edited May 14, 2022 by Bandits4eva Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coraldon 54 Posted May 14, 2022 After last nights lesson at the STeMP, by POOLE the Bears will have to be given lessons on how to gate first, they were beaten out of the gates in 11 of the heats, also hope that Eric somehow gets more power into his engine, because he definitely was off the pace last night. I wont mention that the number two position is the weakest link in the team. there I didnt mention it!!!!!. I will go for the win for the bears, 42- 48. all riders stay safe.
