  1. Poor performances from their guests looks like it may have cost The Tigers a point here
  2. I'm looking forward to seeing Scotty Nicholls . Berwick should manage to win I'd say hopefully we can grab all the points and build on last nights result need to keep in front of the chasing pack
  3. Looks like Spud was trying the Thomas Gollob method of riding a speedway bike
  4. Good to se NP back on the top spot again. There was some decent racing in the later stages . As for wildcard picks I'd say as he's this years champ Doyle probably deserves one , I can't see Holder , Hancock or Nicki getting one though
  5. Yes , as do Tennis players , they have to inform the authorities of their movements and make themselves available for testin , missing a certain number of tests will result in a ban
  6. Was a really good meeting last night, first time I've been at Ashfield since the redevelopment and I have to say I was impressed Speee could do with a few more facilities like this .The photos show just how alarming the accident looked from my position on the back straight. I'm amazed he's managed to escape with just a minor injuries. In most other sports there'd be no chance of him competing tonight but this is speedway and the guys are a special breed .
  7. As long as the racing is good and the beer's cold I'll be happy win lose or draw
  8. It's at the referees discretion weather or not he penalises the remaining rider , if he decides his teammate was trying to gain an advantage by staying down
  9. I thought I read that next years date will be announced tomorrow and that those who bought tickets for this years GP will be given priority when buying tickets for next year
  10. I didn't realise the GP challenge was that night , Ricky Wells if he's available would be a good choice
  11. After last weeks loss at hom to Workington a win was important . This was much more comfortable win than I had expected to be honest, The Scorpions chances not helped by an awful performance from Nico Covatti , probably the worst showing from a guest as I've seen in a long time , poor return at reserve didn't help too l hope its nothing too serious for Danny Phillips looked like a fairly heafty impact . Josh Auty gave 100% as usual and is always good to watch at Berwick, looks like Stevie Worrall going to need a few more meetings until he gets back to 100% fitness . Everyone in The Bandits line up picked up at least a paid win and only 2 last places helped the cause good to see Aaron looking fast . The Tigers next up at Shielfield which I'm sure will be a much harder proposition especially with their new line up .
  12. That's not always true , plenty riders have had problems getting paid riding in Sweden and Poland
  13. As I've said elsewhere not only does it hopefully hook the youngsters it's also an incentive for the parents if the kids get in free helps to cover the other costs of going to a meeting
  14. Biggest problem is though how do you attract them once they turn 16 and have to pay . You need to get their mates hooked as well I'd say , if their pals are going they'll want to go too
  15. Kids go free at Berwick every week have done for ages
  16. Are we talking about the same Ritchie Worrall that the Glasgow fans have been criticising al season ?
  17. All those making snide remarks abut Glasgow " Splashing the Cash " are hypocrites , not one of them would turn down that sort of investment in their clubs . The Glasgow owners should be admired and applauded for what they've done ., without them It's most likely there would be no speedway in Glasgow now . Good luck to them I say for giving it a go , I for one would be quite happy to see them make success of things and for Glasgow to win the title , ( if it's not going to be Berwick that is ) , the petty jealousy is boring and sad IMHO.
  18. I'm sure Richard Knight stayed in the castle when he rode for Berwick
  19. With the benefit of the replay I'd say the ref probably got the correct decision
  20. Letting kids in free is a great incentive for parents to take them along it probably helps to cover the fuel costs, if they had to pay for them would they still take them ? Another thing I've often wondered once they reach 16 do they come to the meetings with their parents or do head out with their mates , it's the 16 -24 yr olds we need to attract
