Will many Bears fans be coming north to support the side (and congratulate Charlie) at Berwick on Saturday night?

Bandits management team would like to announce that the popular Friends & Family Pass & Kids Go Free admissions will continue for the rest of the season! £35 gains admission for 2 adults and gets you 2 programmes. This incentive has worked well and it is designed to encourage more fantastic Bandits fans to bring a friend or family member along for a night of Live Speedway. This falls in line with 2014/15 admission and programme prices and we hope you will help us spread the word. Kids will also enter for free for the remainder off the season but we must emphasise that all under 16’s must be accompanied by a paying adult. Motorsport is dangerous and a parent or guardian must be responsible for any youngsters in attendance at all times.

Tac sub?

Kevin Doolan's latest blog on the club website doesn't speak too highly of Rory Schlein!

Cookie will get one of the rides, I suspect.....

Website seems to be up to date.

This fixture, already looking competitive, has now been spiced by Charles Wright lifting the British Championship. Berwick's usual line-up is Summers, Etheridge, Doolan, Gappmaier, Busk Jakobsen, Garcia & Flint. Redcar will be bringing Riss, Andersen, Palm Toft, Stewart, Wright, Woolley & Greaves -- racing order unconfirmed. Both sides at full strength -- Redcar with their new British champ, plus a new No 1, Erik Riss, who is a double World (long-track) Champion. Bandits remain unbeaten at home in Championship action for over a year, but the recently-revised Bears could be their stiffest test so far this season. If Charles Wright brings the same form he displayed at Belle Vue, Shielfield spectators are in for a treat. Plus, with another tasty wee treat of the NJL mini-match following the main event, Saturday's spectators will be able to enjoy 21 meaningful races for their money. Tell the town -- the new British Champion is coming to Berwick on Saturday night!

Nick Morris is Somerset's No 1

Not at all, she's an Ayrshire girl with a Govan constiuency. Will clearly be in the red-and-white brigade!

Not far away. Probably depends on how Willie, Jye, Connor and Coty match up. A point might just happen.

Try Aaron Summers for Worrall

I don't think Mr Dickson came up the Clyde on a banana boat! Pavlova won't have been added to Leicester's 1-7 yet, and Josh Bates will be in the programmes over the weekend (with r/r in operation).

Because he could win it? (as he did)?

Barker will stay.....

The point about not announcing the result of an afternoon meeting is noted, and, should the unusual circumstance recur, it won't happen. Although it was a bit like talking about a soccer match, which people might want to watch on Match of the Day. Where do you draw a line?

That is a really, really damaging post. Mods, please?

Led by the Roo-boy?

As the same letter estimated Belle Vue's 1970s attendances at 40,000, the writer might not be totally accurate in his estimations. That said, Glasgow have markedly improved their attendances under the Facenna regime.

Well, you're an old shopkeeper......

Listed with the caveat 'if fit' - Aaron has been stood down as Glasgow's guest at Brough on Sunday (replaced by Sam Masters)..

As a gesture to fans who might be drawn to the SON stuff on Saturday afternoon TV, first race on Saturday will be at 7.30 - - leaving any reasonably local folk good time to arrive after the final races in Russia........

Interesting line up for Wednesday at Leicester -- Ricky Wells at #2!

You'd think they might do better, with averages of 6.42 and 5.91 respectively! Club asset Coty Garcia is currently on 5.20 -- having (as Screm has gently pointed out above) increased his starting average. Bandits are above the 40 points, any changes would require to be like-for-like. After Saturday's win, these words were spoken in the Black & Gold: "Dany's maximum will hopefully shut the moaners up for a wee while, but all that'll mean is they'll start turning on Coty instead". Didn't take too long, eh?

You were very welcome, and we hope you enjoyed the trip. As Screm has said, air-horns are not allowed under planning regulations, and if their absence consolidates that permission, then that's that. Aren't they a bit passe nowadays, anyway? Stewart Dickson's post-match analysis was very fair, and made no excuses. All in all, apart from the dreadful Heat 10 crash, a really good night out, I thought.
