Doyle takes a dive again

Doesn't seem to make him any quicker

Why was he allowed to leave the pits without one ? Surely that's something that the machine examiner should be looking for

What about his other heats , were he looked about as slow as the wee red tractor?

Final heat 5-1 slightly distorts the score line IMHO . Berwick looked second best most of the night , another long break until the next Bandits home meeting , it's hard to build up any kind of momentum for the riders and the fans with do many gaps in the season

Every team should be allowed one senior rider such as Lee to help pass on advice to the younger riders , but the league should be about development

I hope that people aren't having FA Cup Final or SGP parties , wouldn't want them to impact on tonight's attendance

This meeting won't make any highlights reel

I think he definitely writes columns to attract bites and always has done

Over the years in his many , programme columns, magazine columns and now blogs Dick has written a fair amount of drivell under his various guises, but this one must be close to the top of the list for absolute balderdash

Some fantastic action at this years North West 200 . All available on BBCiPlayer

Good job it's free ,if a couple are traveling from further afield to the meeting then by the time they pay for fuel etc it's going to cost the best end of £100 for a night out , it's becoming a very expensive hobby

The old national league worked fine without guests

Stick a 2 pointer at reserve and use R/R

I guess that's why the date was originally a blank Saturday, if they knew he wasn't going to be available

Fairly normal for a Saturday in Berwick

How's the weather ?

I don't think many people would have predicted that result, away wins at Armadale are about as rare as hen's teeth for Berwick hopefully that will give them a a boost of confidence for tonight's fixture ( weather permitting) .

The result wasn't exactly unexpected but the overall performance was awful, on a lighter note at least my curry was good when I got home

Tough start for The Bandits. Let's hope that the weather gods behave themselves and we can finally get the season started at Sheffield

Tough one to start the season with , The Bandits may win this but it's al going to depend on the first leg and what sort of deficit they have to pull back. I can't make this one due to a prior commitment, hope it's a decent meeting with no injuries and it's not too cold .

Rebranding of Bt Sport

There's going to be a lot of tough choices for people , Speedway is getting to be expensive and money is tight at the moment. I've had a season ticket for a few seasons now but I'm unsure weather I'm going to renew this coming year .

It would be nice to finish the season off with a win , in what will probably be my last visit to Shielfield this season

I felt they'd do ok at home , and that's what keeps most of the punters happy
