Could well be a fan favourite I think I saw a comment somewhere that said Hume could be a GP rider if speedway didn’t have bends. Can certainly gate but I found it very frustrating watching him last year due to his inconsistency , but that might just be me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Certainly a trier but looked a frustrating one if he was in your team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can certainly pass at our place, we've seen that a lot over the past 2 years, but gating is half the battle! We need to ensure we win our home matches this year .. 4 and 5 losses a season at home isn't good enough! The 3 we've signed so far I am happy with 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All teams need to be competitive at home, very dispiriting to lose a few home matches. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fromafar 10,368 Posted December 11, 2023 Trouble that Berwick have is the majority of riders can ride the track well from the front and if they lead into the 3rd corner and don’t make silly mistake it takes a very good rider to pass them.Slick tracks are what the riders want these days so very difficult to prepare a track to give home advantage unlike that Peter Waite days. 7 Chris Harris clones required.

I think Hume has the ability to be a good rider, far better than he showed last season, for whatever reason did not progress. I am sure he can put at least a point on his average.
