  1. Heard a whisper that Adam Roynon has been practicing at Rye House this week
  2. Hope Silver doesn't realise there's drag racing on ESPN at the same time, otherwise he'll call this one off too!!
  3. I'd have said a Poland/Aussie/Denmark/GB final before the start, so you're probably right
  4. I was waiting for the interval as I was tweeting updates, but the interval never came. By the time heat 12 arrived I was desperate, but by then they'd sold out of chips!! As for the meeting, pretty much as I expected and remembered from a previous visit. One line around the inside, move off the line, or try to go wide around the bends and you were buggered. How else could a gating tart like Chris Mills score a bucket load of points? That track could do with some banking, then it may provide some entertainment. Just pleased to get away with everyone in one piece.
  5. Rye House told Newcastle not to come next week before asking Berwick if they were available. Well, they're not, so we have no meeting at all next Saturday. You couldn't make it up!!
  6. I was planning on grabbing a Scotch pie & cheeseburger before dashing off to the back straight, as far away from Dick Barrie as possible as I'm sure he had a surprise or two in store for me. He already had one prepared in the meeting programme which he gave me a copy of!!
  7. I'm sure they wouldn't of announced it before consulting the Glasgow promotion
  8. I've been told the re staging in next Saturday 2nd August
  9. Been told it's definitely Rye at Berwick on 2nd August Feel for you Gaz. It's very short notice. Can't understand why they're in such a hurry to re stage
  10. Black & Gold was warm and welcoming. I can never understand those that queued in the rain. It's not as if there'd be a shortage of seats inside
  11. It's Sunday in Glasgow. What d'ya reckon?Come to Newcastle with me!!
  12. A lot of the anti Edinburgh stuff is down to pure jealousy. I remember reading anti Rye House posts on the forum when we had a decent side in the mid 2000's. As for Cook, he does himself no favours whatsoever. I have to question the guys ambition. Haven't seen enough of him to form an opinion of his talent, but if he really wants to be a future GP star he won't achieve that unless he packs up racing in the PL and takes the Polish/Swedish route, pitting himself against the worlds best on a weekly basis.
  13. You're pretty much describing a typical Elite League meeting, apart from the world class rider bit. I watched it at the Grove pub in Berwick after the Rockets meeting was rained off. Just shows that even a fast, well prepared track can produce so so racing. How the hell did Italy qualify? Apart from Covati, they were of NL standard
  14. Poor souls? Daft sods. I received a couple of photos of the track at 6pm. There was no way that was going ahead. I was straight into the Black & Gold in the dry.
  15. Just had a couple of photos through from the track. Looks soaked
  16. Change of plan. Having a roast lunch in Berwick, so no Metro Centre. I'll be having that curry & Chips for me dinner
  17. Glorious this morning, clouding over now, forecast for heavy rain from around 7pm
