I agree that if there is to be d/u it should be for British riders only.

Haven't a clue,Averages and stupid rules are just killing the sport IMO,can see why fans just walk away and new fans just think its a joke .sport.Doubling-up and in Roynon's case Trebling-up should be banned IMO.

I was under the impression that if your EL average was over 6pts your were not allowed to double up unless you rode in the PL in 2011(Barker and Gjedde being examples) Fisher was 6.01.

Could be wrong but Idon't think he can double up.

Fisher might have been at desperation time!!

Yup! +1lb Aberdeen Angus Steak and a Dozen Anderson's finest Scotch PIes

That would appear to be correct assumption!

The difference being that Gjedde HAD signed to ride for Berwick.Thats my wooden Spoon away now

I think everyone is getting a bit carried away just because Ashworth is not going to Plymouth.Berwick would have had their own plans in place before this happened and he would not have been part of them then IMO,So why should he be part of them now?Just because his average might fit.

I take on board what you are saying,Berwick promotion will make the judgement on what they know no doubt,I'm sure they will make the right decision.

"that Bowden changed his contract" I assume.

Don't think you have missed anything, some people doing the 2+2 maths and coming up with an answer which is probably wrong. If Berwick were interested surely Ashworth would want the whole season ,Berwick have already stated that Kozza wil lbe back when fit.(given that he is not out for the season,which might well be the case)

Mon the Fish could be the one as Bowden states his search for rider is proving a bit expensive. .Bowden's reputation will go against him when trying to find quality riders IMO.

Phil Pratt possibly

I think it means in a"doubling-up "capacity.Think if the rider was only doing PL he can ride. Could be wrong though.

At least the wannabees in PL are putting in a bit of effort to earn some money,unlike the EL star who are just topping up their Polish and GP earnings without 100% commitment in some cases.

I think a lot of your asumptions are incorrect IMO (being polite)

As a Glasgow assett they will be entitled to money for him whether on loan or transfer.Glasgow have already indicated that he will not be there next year.

Have to agree it was nearly always at Big Meetings,was a class act as a rider though.

Having just read your post on the Edinburgh v Leicester post,it sums up what I though ,a person just having a little stir regarding Berwick Speedway ,like you say you are not really interested .

Why all the negativity regarding Berwick,you claim to be a fan .It's a fact that Vissing was injured on thursday.Stay at home if your that bothered about the line -up.

Can't Split Peter Collins or M Lee, closely folloewd By Simmons,Jessup and Carter.

Mainly first two points IMO. Like the look of the field fair chance for most of the PL guys and Fisher Vissing and Allen will be thereabouts.

Fairplay 1 you can get yer coat you are going to the speedway SEASON TICKETS ARE VALID I would not class Berwick promotion in the same league as Newport.

Irrespective of how good or bad he is .I would like to think he is coming to give it his best shot and might provide some entertainment,which is all you can ask really.Reasonable line up for this type of meeting very hard to predict the winner.Gives some of the lesser lights a chance of a good pay night.Better than inviting a superstar who only has to go through the motions to take home the money and appearance money no doubt.If there is a bit of dirt on the track I fancy Complin, Seb is the dark horse with his class but can he overtake like Lee.Looking forward to a good meeting.
