Worrying little story in this morning's Daily Record . Berwick Rangers are wanting to move from Shielfield Park into a 4 million pound new stadium , their reason is that the current ground is becoming too expensive to maintain . Obviously any such move , should it actually transpire , is a bit in the future . But could the Bandits take on the running of Shielfield Park exclusively ?

Replied too mate

The cash and the tactical awareness . We can never hope to match them in those departments

The young Australian , Max Fricke , seems popular among the Monarchs faithful . He comes in on a 5 , the remaining 3.3 will surely be used on Helfer .

Worryingly Mark Lemon is still available

Looks like we are the new Stoke

Vissing , absolutely . Would like Ricky Wells too , but he'll probably be back at Sheffield . But if we could get Vissing i'd be delighted . Would have Vissing , which would possibly leave Charles Wright and a three pointer . Would like Paul Starke as the three pointer , but it would probably be McBain

We were never going to get Barrett , not enough women go to Ashfield to attract Dyer and i never wanted Wethers anyway , so not too upset that those three have gone . I can see us hanging back and waiting to see what's on offer after the New Year and who's desperate enough to drop their demands for fear of getting left on the shelf .

You've got a good 'un there . Been a bit of a slow burner since coming over here to ride for us in 2008 . He has also doubled up with Belle Vue , though his progress would have been greater had it not been for injuries . Definitely a capable PL heat leader and he also goes well round the OTA . Great signing for the Rebels

Probably not

certainly up there with some of the worst

Brilliant signing for the Monarchs . The sort of exciting signing i was hoping my team would come up with , but hey hoh .

I think we can nip this in the bud before it kicks off another Tigers/Monarchs slanging match . Nobody knows who objected , lets face it Friday nights under floodlights was always going to be extremely unlikely next season in any case . We have to apply again at next winter's conference , we'll see what happens then .

Travis McGowan incredibly had visa problems last year , don't see how a year away from British speedway would see that situation changed .

I wouldn't disagree with that . We gave O'Malley weeks longer than he deserved last season and it was only when James came out and won heat 2 , while guesting for Rye House , that it became clear that the lad was worthy of a chance . With decent equipment underneath him i think the lad could cope with PL racing .

It is , i bet his away average is somewhere between 4 and 5 . But i must admit i'm a bit underwhelmed . Grieves yes , but Screen on his average i'm not so sure about . Some of his away showings last season weren't wonderful . I wanted Bager back , so i'm happy to have him sign . But i was hoping for a surprise signing to get us all excited , but sadly no .

Dont know too much about it , but apparently Joe has put something on Twitter about having to find new employment after a shock phone call yesterday . Of course it might not be speedway related , but i would not be surprised if it were .

Sad thing is , these days there aren't too many sellable assets . If we cant seem to be able to sell Nick Morris , what chance has Berwick got getting anything for Bellego if the chose to sell him in the future . Also if a rider states he doesn't want to ride for his parent club , like Grajczonek and Campton , then there isn't a lot the said parent club can do about it .

The mistake was being too soft and allowing the thing to drag on throughout the season . We should have never have gave in , Bellego rode the required number of meetings to be classed as a Tigers asset . When the BSPA said they were going to defer the thing till the end of the season we should have dug our heels in .

Yes , i agree . What's done is done . We'll just have to learn from this and not make the same mistake in the future .

That's very disappointing

Somehow i think that wont happen anyway . The Friday night thing isn't practical i don't think

I mean that the immediate future of Glasgow is safe

No idea , are you the spelling police ?

Well you dont have to worry about that now
