Berge’s “personality’ has always been if he’s not in the mood he doesn’t try a leg,as some Clubs have found out. Edited January 16 by Fromafar 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tinker 203 Posted January 16 Out of all the teams in the Championship, the Workington one interests me the most. Not only a female rider but a few unknown quantities and I think they will be entertaining to watch and could spring a few surprises. If Cookie and Batch can both get into the mindset where they are determined to prove the doubters wrong and ride to their full capabilities then who knows how far the team can go. I wish the promotion well and for "thinking outside the box" and it's certainly a team which has got people talking. Good luck! 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaizer 2,864 Posted January 16 Given worky have several inconsistencies in their line up surely you want someone in there going to score a steady 6-8 every meeting. How to put this sensitively, Dimitri has what they call a Gaelic temperament and if he's not in the mood then you'll have 2 point reserves beating him. For context see bellego last year. He might score you a max one week and 0 the next, always the way he's been in this country. Would he have his best equipment and attitude over here? I have my severe doubts! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes Bellego looked a reasonable signing until he actually got on his bike! Berge has a relatively poor average given his ability, typical of most French sportsmen he can be brilliant but too often isn't. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bavarian 767 Posted January 16 Bergé was doing great riding for my club Landshut in the Polish Div.1 in the past two years. Moody, yes, sometimes, but most of the time simply brillant. He concentrates on speedway now, and does not ride in long-track or grass track meetings anymore. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
