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).

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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fromafar 10,375 Posted January 7 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 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would also explain Flint being preferred over Vissing. 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Change in approach from their usual team building. If all the riders get dialled in at home should be looking to make play offs. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
