  1. Dont think riders would look at that way, 1 more race per meeting and a couple of 3 pt wins might offset the costs.Riders know the score,if that was the case they would be refusing Ht 15's.
  2. Slightly dodgy weather forecast,early days though might chance.
  3. Lets face it other Team members are not going to complain about using R/R for your No1 when all the Heat Leaders get an extra ride and a chance for more income.Money is what it is all about.
  4. Think the point being made is the population has not changed that much.I can remember the days when Shielfield crowd were regular 1000-1500.The last 10 years a 1000 for a normal match would be a big attendance .
  5. The population is still there it's the interest in the sport that's waning.( not just at Berwick).
  6. As has been normal for a number of years now the Promotions will not work together to reduce rider costs.Nobody really knows what big money is ! It is all lost in supposed sponsorship and fans donations to clubs to keep them afloat.
  7. You need to check the League Table really it was a very false position purely gained on the number of matches we had ridden compared to other clubs.I will be pleasantly surprised if we finish Top Six but if the club is in profit the seasons aim will have been achieved IMO .
  8. Will the public be allowed into Practice.If so when is it.
  9. think you are correct Edinburgh have done nothing wrong according to Green Sheet.My theory is Mitch had a 4 pt AV as an Aussie now he's aBrit he gets to start again on a 3. (Tongue in cheek).
  10. You don't understand the Speedway Rule Book,it's make it up as you go along with 101 interpretations of every rule.
  11. Like is said heads or tails what's your call.Its the only way to decide this matter.Watch out for the Edinburgh double headed coin though!
  12. There's not much discussion lately on this thread regarding whether Tai should ride for Team Gb !!Plenty posts though.
  13. We have been unfortunate with injury to our main riders,think we're are jinxed regarding No1's..We do not pay what the Promotion can't afford for replacements.
  14. never see a bad meeting at Scunny,, deserves better support based on entertainment value.
  15. The rider he was replacing has returned to action now though and his average might not fit then or why do they not use him ?He rode at no2 at the start of the season so if he was no8 who's rides did he take if you say he was a No8
  16. They dropped him last week! Only having a guess same as everyone else ,bored with lack of meetings.Dont run or use R/R that's what we are doing already.
  17. You need to go to matches hoping to be entertained(it looks as though this was a cracker) make up of teams is secondary nowadays.Everybody tries to pull a fast one if they can.Guests R/R and calling off matches is normal nowadays for your Clubs benefit .
  18. Huckenbeck would do job if it is him.
  19. Ithink the enquiry into Peters death established the George Hunters engined seized.
