Busload of us Bandits fans went on a southern tour in 1987. Tuesday Milton Keynes v Berwick, Wednesday Wimbledon v Berwick, Thursday Arena Essex v Berwick, Friday Peterborough v Berwick, Saturday Canterbury v Berwick, Sunday Rye House v Berwick. Tragic thing is we are the only ones currently running.

Your right i remenber Granty Sr worked in a garage, Steve McDermott worked at Massey Ferguson the majority of them had normal jobs. Riders had to use up holidays for away meetings. I can remember going on a southern tour and Berwick had about 4 meetings in a week.

The clubs say they can't do 2H 2A yet we {Berwick} have 3 blank Saturdays in May

Berwick

Yet no meetings on the 24th or 31st

Does the car park not belong to council ? The shows are there this weekend but thankfully no meeting

People still go on about the Under 21 meeting and how good the racing was, hard to imagine that was in 2013. The track prep that night was different with the tractors doing figure of 8's to bring the dirt back, plus track staff had rakes them days to also help bring the dirt back from the fence.

Averages normally change around 23rd of each month becoming effective on 1st of each month. When next averages come out Kildermand will i think still be on assessed average of 8.50 as he will only have had 5 out of the 6 meetings required to get a proper average. Cookie and Kemps averages could possibly go up as well.

Bandits will be looking for a decent lead as they take on the Redcar Bears at Shielfield tonight. For the Bandits, Jack Smith will make his home debut in place of Bastian Borke while the Tigers call up Leon Flint as a guest for GP Wildcard Eril Riss, with Freddy Hodder & Jody Scott stepping in for the injured Ace Pijper & Tom Spencer. BERWICK: Craig Cook, Danyon Hume, Sam Hagon, Drew Kemp, Peter Kildemand, Dayle Wood, Jack Smith. REDCAR: Charles Wright, Jake Mulford, Jason Edwards, Leon Flint, Danny King, Freddy Hodder, Jody Scott.

If you read his interview in the Speedway Star Craig explains why he didn't ride for Leicester

Following last nights spill and a hospital visit back in Manchester, an xray on my hand has confirmed nothing is broken which is brilliant! A few days rest and some sun ready for my two Redcar Bears Speedway fixtures on Friday and Saturday! On his fb page

He did last season

To be fair he was spoilt at Brough Park lol

noticed jamie was doing all the track work on Saturday

If they go R/R King can take 1 of his rides as his new average has dropped

Going to go 52-38 to Berwick. Jye will probably be a busy lad tonight. Looking forward to see how Polis rides Berwick.

Hagon released by Leicester, Gilkes in as replacement

According to his fb page he is fit to ride

something to do wit hhis shoulder apparently

i asked him if he would be fit for Glasgow meetings, he said he was having a practice this week and hpefully would be

8.50

Think Ablitt in a Speedway Star interview a few months ago said, he had spoken to Berwick but the travelling was the problem
