I certainly hope it isn't, as I have a degree of affection for the Berwick fans, and I enjoy there company. I do not profess to know all the problems at Berwick, if there is any about running next season and in a way it difficult to know what else the Promotion could have done. The one thing that has come across reading between the lines this season is the unity between fans and Promotion seems to have taken a bit of a battering this season, which is sad for everyone connected at Berwick speedway and maybe it is something that the Promotion needs to may work upon to secure the future of the club. Lets hope that the club will be running with the present owners or new ones if not, and for the present the riders give a far better performance for the fans for the rest of the season.

Well well Berwick defeat from the jaws of victory, all the good work done in the first leg undone tonight in a massive way. Surely it has to be taxi for Mr Edberg, I would say that he has had his time at Berwick. I don't think you can put too much blame on the youngster Liam Carr, inexperienced and not long back from a very nasty injury. But the embarrassing thing is the amount of points the Rockets reserves generated for Maassen to score 8 paid 9, that score has nearly double his total British career points scored. Well at least my old mate Shadders will be having a cracking night.

Apologies for the late reply to your question. I was referring to Ipswich Promotion. But I agree with others that it is time to move.

And according to his Facebook page wrist as well.

Latest is that he off the crutches healing well and hopes to be back fighting fit for next season.

I think you have absolutely spot on. To try and deflect the blame on to Josh is a disgrace, and bang out of order.

Make a comparison of Kenneth Hansen and Steady and Sean Wilson.

Another Jenga pearler. Correct me if I am wrong did not Hansen drop from the number 1 position to reserve.

Yeah they had to go with RR for Josh Auty.

Get prepared to be called a armchair fan. To be fair this season the Newcastle track seems to have shown a lot of improvement.

I think the top 2 will be Edinburgh and Somerset. With Glasgow, Ipswich, Peterborough and Sheffield fighting it out for a Semi Final place.

Having looked at the footage again and again, I would say that Tungate is guilty of taking Josh off. I think the question is what was the intent. To me it looks as though he has flicked his back wheel to spray Josh with dirt from the track. Unfortunately the move appears to be got wrong and he has caught Josh and to his front wheel. Of course if the referee had have done his job properly either Josh or Tungate should have been excluded from the first running of the heat. What happened afterwards was down to the referee not taking the action initially.

To be fair over the last couple of months Simon Stead has taken him under his wing and the riding and points scored has improved vastly.

Bearing in mind that large amount of those meetings are at Sheffield. I will know what those comments will have been, as I stand with the two texters from Sheffield each week, one of which is my own son. In saying that I am not saying that Josh is perfect and he does make mistakes.

Fair enough.

You very well travelled. To see most meetings that Josh Bates has rode. Or perhaps you are being economical with the truth.

You have to wonder with both the Berwick reserves who on paper look one of the strongest in the league not performing. I have been surprised that Bandit fans have not commented on Richard Hall's performances at Sheffield this season. Three meetings rode. Two as Guest rider for other clubs riding the reserve position. One for Berwick. 7 rides 14 points (Guesting for Newcastle) 5 rides 1 point (riding for Berwick) 6 rides 6 points and 2 bonus points (Guesting for Glasgow)

No I think that the present top 6 will be the Play Off teams.

I have watched over and over and looking at the clip I don't anyone can say whether or not what Tungate did was intentional or not. Looking at the first video clip I would say the referee bottled it by bring all 4 back. It was not first bend bunching as they were on the beginning of straight. The clip with Morris and Lunna proves nothing as you cannot see a thing. But if you are going to use the clip of the re-run with Auty/ Tungate then I would say it proves nothing due to distance away from the incident.

Not quite sure what you mean by Morris was kicking out at Lunna as they coming to the line. Do you mean the start line or the finishing line. Either way is possible to nearly kick somone in the head whilst sat or riding a speedway bike?

Auty injures riders on a monthly basis. Care to provide that list of riders.

That's two riders, both rode for the club in one season 2013, and both have not return to the club. In the case of Maassen he rode so few meetings he did not qualify as an asset of the club.

Interesting you use Sheffield as a platform for your views. Look at Sheffield teams past and present and you will see that the teams has more than there fair share of British riders.

From where we were stood he looking slightly quicker than Josh Auty, and I think he looked better than I thought he would. But they all looked good or poor going around in practice it is difficult to pick out whether or not that the lad will be any good.
