  1. yes he knows the sport but .....even havvy chewing a highland toffee is easier to understand.
  2. he was never going to go back to Edinburgh in a million years once deek was named in their team.Aspegren and starke will ride where they want, if they get the offers...the days of clubs dictating are long gone.
  3. yes but as I said earlier, times are harder for most now, so it's a decision which they will take even easier to stay away.... For example,I've been going to speedway for 33 years, religiously every week and often away...but now I won't go to a meeting if its obvious it will be tripe... The recent test match I gave a miss because of the gulf between the sides and thought it would be rubbish, I didn't decide to go on Sunday until the last minute and only because I wasnt doing anything as it was obvious we would hammer you's..(not being cocky or taking the pee).. Even still I left after heat 13 as it was awful.... Which ive never done..So if the likes of me are changing tact,and loosing interest then newbies won't even get back through the turnstile.
  4. but the package isn't complete as the most important part ,the team isn't competitive and the racing pretty poor. The quality of riders for the sky match was premier league standard that you see most weeks.... The track was superb... And judging from some of those there most weeks inc a rider, it's hardly ever the same from one week to the next.Some people are orgasmic about just seeing 7 blokes in black and gold no matter what, but I don't think the majority are.... They want to see a winning team and good racing.... Even if its 3 Iranians, 2 Turks, a Peruvian and a paddy.
  5. dont think you were unlucky ed, altough your team rode much better than they have this season.People go to speedway to be entertained and also see there team winning, it's all well and good having excelled off the track, but it's the Berwick Bandits speedway team people support and go to see, surely that should be a priority?? I was a regular visitor to Berwick the past few years but to be honest the racing was mainly dire. How can they can get the track spot on for tv meeting and FIM meetings, yet hardly ever for Run of the mill premier league meetings?? It's seems to me that having a successful team on track with a track prepared consistently is secondary to pleasing the powers that be to gain plaudits. If they don't sort this for ordinary joe soap who goes weekly then the massive strides made off the track will be pointless as fans vote with their feet and wallet....I used to spend about 30 quid and double that if I brought the kids.. Without these fans there is no speedway... They are the most important aspect of any club. In this climate people want value for hard earned money, not many and even some die hards will just throw it at watching follow the leader on a cold Saturday night.... Berwicks promotion are to be commended over the past few years but its about Berwick speedway, not the fim, sky, pies, burgers, race suits.... Everything is overhyped constantly.... Being a Berwick fan must be like following nufc??!!
  6. Is it akin to closing time in the nightclub and asking the fat lass dancing by herself to come back to yours for a cake.
  7. yes, kozza should be paying tullys repair bills.... He's a very lucky man to walk away from that.Left after heat 13, was rubbish.
  8. These are the best posts since the..... Who will be the first team to beat Somerset ones last year...
  9. Not bothered if we get stuffed,this is Berwicks cup final so they will be up for it ..... as long as no injurys, it's Sunday that counts. 50-44
  10. 28 years 5 months and 7 days roughly couldnt tell you??
  11. we all know how massively wrong your speedway predictions can be though But I do agree with you Personally I'd like to see something like this but I doubt Richie will stay, Somerset or worky normally turn riders heads at this time of year ..and ESP with his average pushing on 9. Howe Oostergaard Henry Robbo Rosen Kerr Steve Assuming 42.5 points still
  12. This meeting is the last thing we need, with important league meetings and a cup final on the horizon.... Just hope we don't get any further injurys....and Berwick too of course.
  13. aye bet he's not on farting terms with the team manager, track man, mascot and starting Marshall like starry isn't
  14. Kenneth Hansen tweeted his average is too high.... So we may have looked at him
  15. dont think assessed riders can double up, though maybe wrong.Although Bechs guested for Poole.
  16. Be surprised if anyone in PL uses up over 10 points of there team building on cookie.... He's too good for PL anyway lol
  17. read in chronicle that can only sign riders up until 31st August aswell... So not much time.
