Looking forward to visiting the West Lothian Community Stadium next week as we attempt to gain the all important bonus point. Couldn’t agree more, fantastic meeting and just a shame the result didn’t go our way. Some Bandits “fans” may not agree but then again what will they complain about if we were unfortunate enough to be in the position of Newcastle, Eastbourne or so many other fan bases. 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cast1rn 464 Posted July 23, 2023 Great stream again, and surprisingly lots of good passes. Cookie looks far better minus the tache and from Picko's words at the end he seems like an extremely determined captain. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Blobby 2,662 Posted July 23, 2023 To dick and his start line crew. Get it up ye. Chucking their arms in the air every time Craig was out to try persuade the ref. Seeing dick on his hands in knees when Leon packed up cherry on top of a good win. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dick must have been taking lessons from Michal Max at Glasgow on how to be a Centre Green referee .Very entertaining match.

Seeing dick on his hands in knees when Leon packed up cherry on top of a good win. Craig moved in at least 4 of his races. Why Jason wasn't excluded in heat 12 is baffling as that would be the 3rd or 4th time he was moving. Good enjoyable meeting made better with the banter between the fans. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

screm 8,057 Posted July 23, 2023 Best meeting I have seen this season at Berwick, admittedly I have not been to every meeting but last night I was happy to pay my £20 with an entertaining meeting with some very good racing. Leon Flint and Berwick can feel hard done to when his back tyre gave up while in second place in the last and deciding race, but ultimately the race is over four laps and not three and one quarter, anyway the reason for the loss cant be put at that particular door as that would be foolish. Once again the opposition out numbered the home side in race winners and once we head into the last few races, and the away team have a strong one and five, Berwick usually come un-stuck, as they did last night. Add in one or two strange managerial decisions and you have your reasons for another home defeat. The long term future for Edinburgh Speedway is uncertain, if they do come to the tapes in 2024 then I would be getting a contract under the nose of Bastian Borke, on first viewing last night Edinburgh have something special on their hands. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What a ridiculous post, maybe you could ask why Bandit59 didn't attend. What do you suggest, take away the Berwick live stream, or BSN for that matter.

Skidder1 7,637 Posted July 23, 2023 Apologies if this has already been covered, but just catching up on BSN. How is it Craig Cook got a heat 15 d/q as well as a second warning and was still allowed to restart on 15 meters? As it turned out it wouldn't necessarily have affected the final result - just interested......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So 15m or a reserve is the option. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
