  1. I get the impression he has been dropped for the new rider and won't ride for Tigers again this season.
  2. trouble was it wasn't Lindons money they were spending by the sound of things and events that followed.
  3. He will have to win the Lottery to improve his finances,his speedway earnings are certainly not going to get any better than what he has earned in the last 2 seasons.At 27 just yet maybe leaving it too late.Cant see Continental clubs rushing for his signature.Good Luck to him though.
  4. Bandits website seem to think Worrell will ride for Ipswich despite being reserve for WTC.
  5. I would disagree,he was aWorld Class Rider and to chance coming to Berwick at that stage of his career was a brave move and he never let us down also appeared in the World Final as a Bandit help us win aTrophy EL level.Class act.Whether he ever got the money he was promised well only he can answer that.You never know how long he would have been a Bandit if Lindon hadn't done a runner .
  6. Another good advert for PL speedway,some tremendous racing on a well prepared track.First time I have seen Brady Kurtz he is a talent .Good news for Andre,he was riding superbly before his misfortune wish him a speedy return.
  7. I know that,but your final position determines who gets pick of opponents,it could make difference if we don't complete all our fixtures,read the post before making a silly reply.
  8. While Bandits are in a very strong position regarding top 6 ,when is the cut off dates for the Play offs and will we manage to get the postponed fixtures run before that date otherwise we could finish in a false position regarding who picks who in these play offs.
  9. have to agree the main problem in speedway these days is that technology has taken over.
  10. you have to remember Monarch fans see everything as a theory or a slight against them.Other people are not allowed to ask questions or have thoughts.
  11. Yer getting too excited Edinburgh have more than us this season and haven't been humped at home yet.
  12. it's hard to figure the Wolbert situation everybody knows he is a decent rider at PL level,I'm wondering if he just has junk machinery that is kept in Glasgow for him and his best bikes are elsewhere.There are are few others that I think keep there best bikes for the continent,or maybe the foreign clubs are the owners of their bikes.
  13. The sport is being run on a shoestring,and all the new health and safety regs are causing havoc nowadays promotions just can't afford to pay a load of cash for standby arrangements which in all probability will never be needed.It is meant to be a professional sport but unfortunately it's dying on its arse,and these situations don't help
  14. it is a strange one,you would have thought that anyone out with injury would have be pass a doctors examination before returning ,however if he passes and returns he has too take 3 rides as per the rules therefore the team concerned would only have 1rider in the rides that need to be covered.There seems to be confusion about this situation but it is Speedway so it's not straightforward as they are made up the rules as they go along.
  15. Well done to the Bandits any away deserves credit.Glasgow don't have their problems to seek,Wolbert is taking the p*ss,he is a better rider than he is showing this season.Fans deserve better as they are loyal to the core.Hope their fortunes pick up.
  16. agree,but they are just going that bit faster the last few year makes it difficult to swoop like a few seasons ago,the leader is going 60-70 mph down the straight these days which makes passing only for the brave, these days or if the rider in front makes a mistake .its been said MANY TIMES the track needs re shaped and the racing lines would be fantastic unfortunately it is out of control of the speedway promotion and will never happen.IMO a good race doesn't need a pass , but a lot of riders just stick to what they have after a couple of laps.
  17. what's the latest on Claus is he riding this week-end?
  18. Agree there is nothing wrong with the track it's just the attitude of the visiting riders.The Monarchs are a good team though.I have seen a lot of good racing at Armadale irrespective of the score line
