Berwick v Edinburgh 11/08/2018 Championship @7pm
screm replied to screm's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Agree regarding gate and go, especially with a track the size and shape of Shielfield but I thought there was more actual racing last night than in recent weeks where some of the races looked not much more than demonstration races. Last night the track did look more grippy than of late and gave the riders a chance to race. Good win for Berwick, far stronger in reserve positions. For Edinburgh Wells not being quite up to his normal high standard round Berwick and Riss having two poor opening rides went along way to their down fall especially Ht6 where the Monarchs tactical move back fired on them. Quite what Edinburgh see in Max Clegg is beyond me, it seems his racing career is stuck in reverse at the minute at Championship level anyway. I`d love to know what Scott Courtney said about the new STARRS in interview during the Ben Fund collection but the PS system, in the main stand at least is awful,. Maybe the club could put an interview either on the official site or on their Youtube channel. -

Proof if proof were needed that posting on an empty head is alive and well in Redcar. -

Berwick were good that night no doubt about that but were help by a poor Glasgow side on the night, I cant see Edinburgh so poor. -
Great idea, if he`s not to bust maybe we can get the World Champ to do the draw.

Boxall given 2 year ban refusing drug test
screm replied to dazzafl's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Boxall`s career has been on a steady decline for a season or two now, surely there is no team left desperate enough to sign him now, especially now. -

It would seem that the Workington promotion are about to be rewarded with another low crowd for this fixture, through no fault of their own. You wonder just how long they can go on like that. -

Sums it up perfectly though I don`t think that is a good thing. -

As thing stand Berwick run their last home meeting of the season next Saturday the 18th, maybe Ipswich could run this on a Saturday night.

And likely to turn off supporters who might just be willing to donate, one day lessons will be learned, but that day wont be today.
-
Either way the important thing is to get money in, whether that be a sense of duty or a tax break, after all on the face of it Berwick Speedway is a relatively small business so any money is of great benefit. I wish the club the best in getting the donations needed though speedway in general is failing, whether donations from customers can save it for the long term remains to be seen.

While I take your point about clubs being propped up by multi billion pound tv money, the reason for this investment is the basic product ie Premier League, is the most exciting and marketable football league there is which I think is the point that has been made already that if you get your basic product right, is this cases speedway on a Saturday night, then investment should with a bit of luck follow either by sponsorship and/or people coming through the gate.

You are suggesting that those who don't donate aren't proper supporters.
-
Riders have poor nights on purpose, manipulating their average to keep their job safe and earn reasonable money in doing so.
-
Don`t worry you`ll get your win, and probably quite a comfortable one at that.

You don`t honestly believe that do you.

No breaks, but his ankle is swollen which means he has to rest this week.

The second day for any rain offs are in the rules so on the face of things all is above board, but the meeting wasn't rained off so IMO there is no reason why Vissing couldn't make it to Newcastle tonight, but like has already been posted Vissing has form and did the same thing to Berwick last season, thankfully Berwick had the good sense to get rid of him very soon after.
