Drew Kemp has declared himself battered, bruised but fit to face the side with which he raised the cup last season. But Jye Etheridge will be forced to cheer his team-mates on from the sidelines. His absence will be covered by rider-replacement with all bar guest number one Richard Lawson able to cover the Australian’s rides. Taken from Club Website.

Berwick take on an inform Scunthorpe side managed by former Bandit David Howe. hoping for a good lead to take down to Scunthorpe for the 2nd Leg. Berwick TM has again changed things around from last Friday with Danyon back at number 2 Drew 4 Rory 5 and Jye3. Richard Lawson once again guests for the sidelined Lewi Kerr. For Scunny Jack Smith guests for Nathan Ablitt. Scunthorpe have a number of riders who can ride Shielfield well but i think with Berwick a little bit stronger at reserve we wil get a result. 1989 was the last time we won the KO Cup so we are hopefully due a good cup run. Prediction 52-38.

One thing you may want to consider is car parking, Berwick Rangers who are playing at home this afternoon are advising that the car park is very muddy, that is hardly likely to improve with the people going to the football.
Taken from Berwick Rangers site.
Today's game goes ahead after the pitch passed its inspection!The car park at Shielfield is very muddy, so please take care if driving to the game. If you are able to walk to the ground rather than drive, please do.shame that old jus rol yard could not be utilised as parking couple of minutes walk from stadium

Weather has improved a bit thankfully since Wednesday. Roof closed hopefully all good for tomorrow night

Track was F. I. M standard even before it was widened in preparation for the 2020 season. Hence why we allocated a couple of big F. I. M meetings
