  1. The annoying thing is that they’d got Lawson, Wells and Mountain I’m in the first place instead of Proctor, Bridger and Kinsley it would have been a half decent team. And the Wolves result wouldn’t have happened and Cook wouldn’t have been released. Opportunity missed.
  2. Not sure what went on but it’s been insinuated that he’ll never ride for the Aces again under the current promotion.
  3. They don’t any more but the weather warnings are still there and it’s likely that if you get a downpour it will be absolutely torrential. To be honest I’m not surprised that some clubs are calling off when tue weather isn’t perfect, don’t think too many can afford to run in front of an even more reduced crowd too often.
  4. Where was it ever said that it was mutual out of interest? Personally I thought it was pretty clear that something happened or was said in the pits during the Wolves meeting to go along with Cook’s performance which meant they felt they had to get rid.
  5. You need to get yourself over to the covid thread and start interacting with Blupanther and Wolfsbane, I have some popcorn I need to use up
  6. Thoroughly enjoyed that, Peterborough really is a fantastic speedway track when it’s well prepared. Fast, full throttle speedway is the best kind IMO.
  7. Ah but that isn’t what you said even if it’s what you meant! Anyway I don't disagree, you need to be winning at home far more often than not. The things that stand out in the scorechart are the slow start from Summers and the Garcia R/R, your reserves are very good so fingers crossed the top five starts to click as there is a lot to like about Berwick as a neutral.
  8. True, but to say that you can’t win home matches is inaccurate. Looking at other sides you will win several more as well.
  9. What is the purpose of the no three league idea and why can’t it be scrapped? Surely young riders racing as much as they can van only be a good thing and fixture clashes could be worked round.
  10. Rob has always been one of the best in the business if not the best. Much of Lynn’s success in the last twenty years is largely down to him IMO.
  11. Pussycats dark horses for the title I reckon
  12. But something like 36 of the 42 Premiership riders also ride in the Championship, that’s an awful lot of extra riders to find, even without those who may pack up without two speedway incomes.
  13. Flint seems to be going places, would have liked Lynn to have got him as our number seven.
  14. 1987? Knight, Regeling, Davies, Campbell, Poole, Kyllingstad, Morton?
  15. Some of it has been self inflicted with the team building though.
  16. So the authorities are just allowing riders to race in Poland when they have a meeting in the UK and are handing out facilities willy nilly to that end? Disappointing.
  17. Surely if a Premiership club wanted him he’d be daft not to take that opportunity at the expense of his Bullets spot? Yes he’s loyal to Berwick but surely he and they want him to progress as well as he can and I can’t imagine he is learning too much from NDL racing? Hope he gets as many rides in Poland as possible too.
  18. Like Cook this is a real shame as he is far more talented than his average suggests. But once again if his head isn’t in the right place then best to step down. A Championship spot might be a better move. As someone has said, get a solid option in Proctor’s place and the team looks a lot better than a couple of weeks ago.
