    Is NJB at Berwick on Sat.? You know when they don't say anything regarding Team something is up.Was going to Worky but will give it a miss.

    Not in their interests to tell the fans if there isnt going to be a full strength team, just keep quiet and then spring it on them come 7pm once they’ve taken their money, disgusting really but what importance to the fans hold to the promoters in this country eh. By the way alot of them talk you’d think they are doing the fans a favour running a team.

    Think that result just emphasises whats wrong with Berwick. A lackadaisical effort when they really needed to turn up. That Berwick team has riders that have been going to Armadale for years so to go and perform like that is extremely poor. If this had been an Edinburgh side that performed like that I’m sure their promotion would have got torn into them, the Berwick lot probs took them down the pub for a laugh and carry on whilst writing the match preview for saturday night telling everyone how the Bandits are ready to thrill the fans with every turn of the wheel. Bring it on.

    This will no doubt have been covered already in the many pages of this thread, but why is Chris Holder riding for Torun but not Poole? I know the reasons given when Kildemand came in was that CH had personal issues to sort, but surely if hes riding for Torun he should be for Poole?

    I say it as I see it. Obviously you’re happy to have a prestigious event on your home track, but there was hardly a pass of note and some pretty strung out racing. Not much to be positive about really. 

    The chuckle brothers just like to see the bikes out on track, the racing is irrelevent to them. The fact Berwick stages this meeting is all that really matters, sod the fact it sounded boring as sin lol.

    The banter you can have with Zielona Gora fans, priceless. Live for that interaction.

    Better than just being a sheep and going because you’ve done it for years and you dont actually have an opinion of your own. They could put 7 teletubbies out on track for the Bandits on a saturday night and you’d say it was a quality meeting.

    You're right, can't wait for the Polish season to start, so I can sit in the house and watch two teams nobody else around me has an interest in, rather than watching live sport and having a night out with friends.

    Suppose thats the difference isnt it, you go for a night out and to enjoy the party atmosphere, I enjoy watching good speedway thats competitive and taken seriously. Each to their own I suppose.

    I think the fans should just be excited by what a top team the Bandits have assembled and really be hopeful of a push for the title this coming season. With passing galore and a real carnival atmosphere I’m sure theres never been a better time to get to Shielfield and support the club. 

     

    For anyone thats had enough already, Poland starts very shortly :)

    This is the worst PL team since Mildenhall in 2008 in my opinion. Will there be a reduction in the admission price for the Newcastle fans that reflects what a poor team they have? I understand they clearly have to cut their cloth but when you look at that side I cant help but wonder why they are bothering and why they didnt just drop into the conference for a season and try and bring on some talent before stepping up again when able.

    Summers, Doolan and Howe... Hardly inspiring

     

    To be honest I think the fans are just as much to blame as the promotion because they are the ones that condone this lack of ambition by paying to watch it week in week out and thats what pays for the shambles that is put before them. People are moaning but will still be there come March/April to watch the assault on bottom of the table commence.

    Why dont they try and get Jade the blade Mudgeway and Dawid Stachyra back as well? Both absolutely rubbish but no doubt great blokes. In Stachyras case he cant even speak English but the Berwick fans arent concerned about that, if youre in the team regardless of ability youre a great bloke seemingly, judged by the Facebook response to Doolans re-signing. Sigh.

    So with a shortage of genuine Number 1's for different reasons, looks like a lot of teams will be going down the strength in depth road. This actually worked for us in 2014 when we reached the playoffs so here goes for 2018.

    1, A Summers 2, E Perks 3, K Newman 4, D Howe, 5, K Doolan 6, J Etheridge 7, N Greaves. 41-27

     

    You should be on the promotion, another team you've came up with that would be bottom again.
