screm 8,069 Posted April 10, 2016 Newcastle have a far stronger side out tonight than last night, so we may need all of the ten point advantage. But we were written off at Armadale last Friday and look what happened, so we are aren`t giving up yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bandit59 1,155 Posted April 10, 2016 Had to spoil our weekend well done Diamonds,think Lambert will be PL champ this season 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJC71 388 Posted April 10, 2016 Very impressed with the Diamonds tonight. Once Steve got his bike going we pulled well clear off a very decent Berwick side who have several riders who have good records at Brough. Robert Lambert was absolutely superb and his partnership with Steve in heats 13 & 15 looks the most formidable pairing we've had since the Larsen, Bach, Lemo season. With excellent back-up from Lude, Kus and the very impressive Lewis Rose we looked a very strong outfit tonight. IF we can sort out Tero's injury problem (which is a worry) & IF we can avoid injuries & IF we can get our full 1-7 on the track enough in the away matches We could have a really good chance of being involved in the fight for the major trophies this year. Although the Diamonds ran away with it in the second half of the meeting, the Bandits look a competitive outfit to me. Good quality speedway meeting. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree regarding Newcastle team a bit of luck and they won't be far away when trophies are up for grabs at the sharp end of the season.

Chewbacca 653 Posted April 11, 2016 Enjoyable meeting. Some decent racing in the first 10 heats as the Bandits consistently gated on the Diamonds. Newcastle look very strong in those last 5 heats though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
To The Point 356 Posted April 11, 2016 Enjoyable meeting. Some decent racing in the first 10 heats as the Bandits consistently gated on the Diamonds. Newcastle look very strong in those last 5 heats though. It's those last 5 races that are Berwicks Achylies Heel. I would have loved to have come down to see this one, I highly rate Newcastle and should be in the top 4. To be honest, If Newcastle had it's full team on Saturday at Berwick, it may well have been a different result, but as said you can only race against what is in front of you. It will be no disgrace for any team to lose to Newcastle this season, as long as they have put up a good fight, as Berwick did on Sunday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It will be no disgrace for any team to lose to Newcastle this season, as long as they have put up a good fight, as Berwick did on Sunday Berwick certainly were good value for money and had Alden and Jorgensen not be blowing hot and cold you may have pushed us harder, but I must admit I was a bit nervous for the first half of the meeting when I thought you had the measure of us. It was another good match between the two teams as per usual and I look forward to the visit of the Bandits later in the season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
