  1. Been asked to post this by Greg Blair Hello everyone, Greg Blair here I’ve not got an account on this forum as I don’t usually come on this page but it’s been brought to my attention I’ve been getting some heat on it, just want to clear this up. I didn’t go up to the box to show the ref any footage, I’m often up in the box changing batteries or getting coffee and sometimes just making sure everything is running well, Steve the announcer is a good friend of mine and I went up when I heard the ref was away to view the footage in the commentary box just to ask him what was going on so I could relay any info I had. All in all I had no influence on what the ref did, I’ve seen decisions reversed before so it wasn’t anything new! Of course I’m going to get comments about my performances at Berwick or on BSN and it even made me laugh that this person said I wasn’t a very good rider. Hey I had a go and I loved racing bikes (not being very good at it) I love what I do in speedway, I’m happy to entertain and get a laugh but honestly if you want to have a go I welcome you to try it. Things happen in the moment, I’m passionate about my sport and Berwick speedway which I hold very close to my heart, I won’t say sorry for my passion! The only time I’ll ever say sorry is if I offend someone and in this case I haven’t so I’m blowing everyone who dislikes me kisses and the ones who do support me you’re getting bigger kisses! Enjoy your speedway folks x PS if you want to come and chat to me in person you can usually find me in the black and gold ... that's if you’re comfortable having a dig at me without hiding behind the username
  2. doesn't matter when I posted it, this forum is becoming as alien to the truth as a Trump press conference.
  3. Really didn't look very hard did you? https://www.bellevue-speedway.com/blog/latest-news-2/aces-look-in-good-shape-401 https://oxfordspeedway.club/2025/05/preview-high-noon-for-spires-in-manchester/
  4. So Berwick building and operating - as they have done since 2021 - a purpose-built training track and after-meeting training sessions at Shielfield is, in your opinion, nothing?
  5. Seems fairly straightforward to be honest. When the season passes went on sale there was, and still is, a variable number of meetings in the season dependent on progress in knockout competitions and whether or not they reach the play-offs. Alternatives: not to have season passes or to specify that they are valid for the number of league fixtures (28) known in November/December last year. Standard in just about every other sport I can think of. Commits the club to providing you with 28 fixtures. It seems equally obvious that as the Ipswich match was a failed fixture it doesn't count towards the 28 but the restaging will. Season pass holders certainly win in this situation but then again if they miss a couple of fixtures for whatever reason they don't get any money back from what they paid for their season pass.
  6. Would imagine the scheduled fixtures cover the rerun - probably best to ask the club direct rather than rely on the BSF's conspiracy theorists for answers though. Almost certainly what qualifies as non scheduled fixtures are play-offs, KO Cup for the Cheetahs, Championship Pairs
  7. No, no Plymouth are very much against that sort of sharp practice. Vociferously arguing against Berwick being allowed to use IIR for Lewis Kerr last Saturday and threatening to report the Bandits to the SCB (don't know if they went ahead or not). So it must be a completely unconnected injury otherwise they wouldn't have invoked IIR
  8. This is a rearranged fixture, originally called off in April, so this would have been a clear night in Britain
  9. If Scunthorpe win against Plymouth it will be on the 27th, if Plymouth win it could be either.
  10. thought he rode on a british passport last year?
  11. So you could provide all 15 heats winners and still lose heavily? Seems weird
  12. Technicality I know but didn't he refuse to take a drug test rather than fail one. Result is the same and leads to a ban.
  13. Berwick's training track DOES have an airfence
