    As much as a lot of people criticise Dick and his centre green shenanigans, I guarantee you will miss him when he does hang up his microphone.

    I remember when he was missing for a season a handful of years ago and I certainly felt that the presentation on the evening was far poorer due to the lack of his presence.

    That would be 2017 when we brought in Ranting Roy

    There are more people in that picture than are at a match these days.

    50/50 draw must have been good not forgeytting

    What Berwick would do for a rider like the one in the photo? :D (i'm thinking it's 'Mauger'?)

    Was a best of 3 match race with Jim McMillan

    Correct me if I’m wrong but Drew Kemp won’t be getting any rides for Lodz surely with their line up? Maybe at number 8 at best?

    You know what the Poles are like, get riders to attend practice sessions even if not in team.

    Depending who Bandits sign as last rider they may be in the mix for Top 4 .IMO.Might be strong in the 2nd string and reserve position which will be a plus.

    i think a  lot will depend on 3rd Heatleader performances, we have Etheridge, Poole Brennan, Edinburgh Kye Thompson, Glasgow Flint, Oxford Jenkins, Plymouth Newman, Redcar TJ, Scunny MPT. Workington still have 6.32 to play wit hfor final rider.

    So it's Covatti, Bowtell, Newman, D Thompson, Barker, J Thompson and Hook - Not the team I'd have thought we'd be putting together and I think we're going to struggle in a lot of heat 13s and 15s both home and away but hopefully, with a strong(ish) reserve pair we can make up for it in other heats. Lots of improvement from the non-heat leaders required!

    To be fair you have 3 young riders in the Thompson twins and Hook all capable of progressing next season.

    Season Ticket prices announced this evening. Cheapest so far of those clubs that have confirmed theirs.

    £189 for 11 meetings (£159 Concessions - 65+) and you get a guaranteed seat in the main grandstand for that!:t:

    Not forgetting 10% off merchandise in the track shop and the usual invitation to the Club's P&P.

    That is good value TBH

    Thats fair enough, already think the team looks better than last years.

    All teams need to be competitive at home, very dispiriting to lose a few home matches.

    When you start losing at home regularly the fans vote with their feet and crowd levels drop. Track most weeks was quite slick which suited the away teams, we need to prepare a track which gives us home advantage as other teams do. Winning your home matches especially with bonus point addition being in place can help towards a playoff place.
