Maybe it's Berwick in Championship, Oxford in Premiership courtesy of Jamie Courtney Or maybe the other way round also courtesy of Jamie Courtney

Think it's all getting a bit silly on here now.Time to award the 2021 Pointless Trophy to one of these teams by toss of a coin,shut down this thread and look forward to sunny days next summer following a popular and successful Annual Gathering of Muppets.

Possibly even a master baker

Duns.Heavy drizzle about 15 miles from Berwick

Would be great to have a last heat decider and the same atmosphere as 2019 meeting but just can't see it with the way both teams have each been riding this season.Still,you never know

Possibly all won't be well with the world next weekend then.If you don't get at least 60 points in each of the cup matches you are in trouble

Keep checking the official webrubbishe

Sounds like we have to improve a bit to have any chance against Leicester in the Cup final

Might need to find some old turf and narrow the bends to where they used to be.At least we just got beat in the old days not embarrassed.

Might find the Bandits are too at Armadale - half a lap behind the Monarchs

Not blaming Birmingham at all and well done to them.It's just the rules of speedway which need looked at.Maybe if there was a chance to have a year off racing it would be an opportunity to sort the sport out for the future - or possibly not.

First match of the season. 6 man Berwick team 39 Championship Select 51 And this is supposed to be a professionally run sport!!!!

As it looks like quite a few teams will be having double headers with championship and national league matches would it not make sense to run the national league matches to the old 13 heat formula with either 6 or 7 rider teams.Might just help to get full meeting over in alloted time if curfews are an issue.

Better tell the riders to bring spikes for the tyres.Mid October in Berwick perfect conditions and temperature for ice speedway

Does this mean that the eligibility of riders from eu countries to ride in this country after Brexit has all been sorted or is it still a question of waiting and hoping?

Hopefully one of the Courtneys then the track changes will be just fine

Might be FFS Banditos after some away matches

Bye for Leicester.Bye bye for Berwick

Day after first set of new averages next season

i would imagine the team has been built to a budget to try and keep the club financially viable.If the post on the Glasgow thread is true that they lost £100k again this season then good luck to them and others in a completely different world to Berwick and other teams with less wealthy backers.I would doubt if Berwick would survive with losses a fraction of that.The team had to lose points somewhere from this season to get down to the 41 point limit and it probably avoided wholesale changes with Kevin stepping down.I agree it doesn't look the strongest team but neither did this year's and they did ok.Cook also hates the Berwick track but does ok on it and although totally different quality riders you can't write off Bickley because he said he didn't like the track.I'm not defending the promotion as being faultless but in the real world you cut your cloth to fit the situation.In any case if if any rider is underperforming in a meeting he can always take a "comfort break" and Mr.Doolan can put on his kevlars and helmet if he's in the pits.Nobody would know.

We're guaranteed to finish in the top twelve with that team then

Make more sense if Berwick signed Covatti and Coty.They could be buddies there too

Promotion only thinking of fans wellbeing.Last 2 years finished best of the rest and didn't have to stand in the freezing cold October nights in watching playoffs.Bring on seventh place and we'll only have to watch on freezing cold summer nights
