YAMYAMBANDIT 560 Posted July 30, 2014 Now that's a surprise. If so Berwick will run out of dates. Enjoyed the world cup in the Grove, nice to be in the old stamping ground with a load of speedway friends. They only have 1 weekday spare, and the 27th Sept after that 18th and 25th Oct Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BBSC 56 Posted July 30, 2014 might have to do what they did in 2011, when they rode on friday oct 28th against Newport and approach the council for a bit of leeway if weather does not improve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

topsoil 2,498 Posted July 30, 2014 Forecast is not looking good for the weekend. Berwick having absolutely no luck with weather this season, most weeks it has been beautiful 6 days a week, then Saturday afternoon / evening it starts to rain, only to dry up about 8 - half 8. Don't know how many more rain-offs the club will be able to take financially. Hopefully we can dodge the showers. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If only we had a micro climate like the "perfectionists"! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

screm 8,078 Posted July 31, 2014 Financially the last thing Berwick need is another rain-off as these recent rain-offs must have hit the club hard, not to mention the fact we might struggle to get all our meetings in by the cut off. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunatly the weather is something we have no control of, what can you do about it.......absolutely nothing. And the best of it is we are having one of our better seasons!

And the best of it is we are having one of our better seasons! What makes it worse is that for the last two Saturday home meetings Berwick will have had to pay out on expenses as the riders have reached Shielfield and been ready to go, both times the weather has been fine right up to late afternoon before the rain came. Who would be a promoter in this instance, unless we get some leeway from the Council to run more off night meetings, we wont get our meetings done by the cut-off date, double headers would be an option but they would hit the club financially even more than rain-offs.

cheggie 72 Posted July 31, 2014 So what's the Glasgow team? What's the big secret? IMO - would any changes not need to be declared today in order to be able to ride on Saturday night!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smod 145 Posted July 31, 2014 If a new 1/7 has been submitted today, it'll be OK if approved tomorrow -- it is when it is submitted that counts. But what is it? Tigers have plenty of points available. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tigers have plenty of points available. If it's what I was told last night then the Weege may have something to finally feel happy about 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
