Have Glasgow adopted a "no Danes" policy for 2024 given their Wednesday night league meetings cause problems with rescheduling fixtures? It would also explain Flint being preferred over Vissing. 

I do wonder if that is part of it (although I’m sure we’d have made an exception for Ben in the right circumstances).

Good point..think we made a conscious decision to have British based riders.

Does that mean you’ll be at Shielfield cheering on the lads for the first time since we signed Etheridge?

In a word, no.

Wouldn't pay to stream a meeting from Shielfield no. Only a couple of tracks in the UK I personally feel are worth paying to attend/stream and they’d be Glasgow, Redcar and Belle Vue. Excited to see how good the racing is from Workington this season on their return.

Why are you even on here then?

It may blow your mind to learn this but this is a forum. I know you come on just to deep throat everything Berwick Bandits but I do not. I follow speedway everywhere and will give my opinion on it as and when I feel like it.

Irrespective of how the season turns out,it’s refreshing to see a Bandits Team with riders who are young and might improve as opposed to journeyman riders.Good Luck to them

On a the negative side the black and gold will lose a few quid without them.

I'd have preferred to see Vissing back at Ashfield over Flint because I always liked his no-nonsense style. Flint is a good rider although I believe he has pretty much reached his ceiling now.

If I were a Bandits fan, I would be excited about that team. Change in approach from their usual team building. If all the riders get dialled in at home should be looking to make play offs.

Yes. Some peak early and never become what people think they will become. There are many examples of this throughout history.
