Newcastle Diamonds V Berwick Bandits 27th April, 2014

Recommended Posts

What are you on about Eddie. Newcastle didn't have an Air Fence two Seasons ago. You can see some of it lying beside the Safety Fence. :unsure: :unsure: :unsure::blink:

 

Puzzled Sunderland.

Dunno if Triple H is a Diamonds fan, but if he is you must forgive he/she as if you remember 2011 is the year we all want to forget. Death and multiple critical injuries and all that.

I though it was rolls of linoleum, to help make it grippy, but slick?

I apologise if I have upset you or anyone else I use the forum for what is usually seen as a bit of lighthearted banter with admittedly on occasions far more serious posts.

Sorry but I was just trying to give Triple an out for forgetting who were 2011 champions. I have clearly re-kindled sad memories which was not my intention. The apology should be mine.

Glad it was off... I told it was a sell out when I tried to book tickets today

Let's hope that the Grandstand is open when they decide to run the Fixture. It would allow even more people in.

 

On the plus side for me personally - I then wouldn't have to go dashing down to the front so as I could see. (dashing may be a slight exaggeration :blink: ) As lots of folk who usually are in the Grandstand are congregated by the picnic tables. This is NOT a complaint - we need as many people to come to the Speedway as possible.

Can I say that personally, seeing the exposed underside of the terraces has been a revelation. If only those paint daubs and graffiti could talk. In which era were they made and which riders of the past knew those long forgotten scrawlers. Even having to stand out there with half a view of the racing has in some small way been recompensed.

Nilsson rides div 2 in Poland for Start Gniezno.

 

That is one of the problems you are going to have, by being a Sunday race-night, a lot of the type of riders people think we need will be racing in Poland, therefore ruling them out.

 

The only way round it would, of course, switch back to a Monday, but we lose about 10%-15% of the crowd apparently when we run on an 'ordinary' Monday (not Bank Hols though).

 

Also, on the 'big hitter' front, can Newcastle actually afford that type of rider on the crowds we are currently getting?
