I`m quite happy to see changes if its for the better but can you honestly see changes at Berwick, especially the two riders you name. Don`t forget Aaron Summers is our No1 and has been since the start of the season so surely you could ask why hasen`t any of the other riders stepped up to challenge Aaron for his race jacket, maybe the weakness lies there but in all honesty I can`t see any changes happening for the rest of the season.

Fairly predictable elimination from the KOC so congratulations to Edinburgh. The meeting itself was largely uneventful with virtually no passing, amazing that Berwick won this meeting with only five race winners all night. Best wishes for a speedy recovery to former promoter John Anderson who has been in the wars recently.

Seems strange that a company doing all they can to get customers through the would ban one for posting an opinion on a forum. Yes Jenga posts nonsense but deserving of a ban, I think not. Maybe the Workington promotion would do well to leave this forum alone if they aren`t happy with what is being posted.

Best of luck to Leon Flint now he has moved into the main team, though I`m sure he will take it all in his stride.

For Berwick to turn this round tonight is going to take everything to go their way, Edinburgh engine failures, referees decisions and more importantly all the Berwick riders need to have their best meeting and hope Edinburgh dont. Can it happen yes, will it happen, probably not, Berwick will win the meeting IMO but not by enough.

Is that likely, either all seven getting absolutely torn into, or turning the shambles around. Don`t worry you will get over it. Going to be another quick season.

Thankfully for you certain posters don`t visit these threads, otherwise you`d be on the naughty step.

Giving the forecast of rain that has lead to these slick conditions which in turn has lead to virtually no passing. Those who stayed away might just have made the right decision.

Noooooooo Robert what a start.

Very decent field so you would think there would be some kind of crowd, poor crowd here and for the SON recently.

In affect Newcastle have released Rose when they signed Matej Kus as a replacement.

Looks like Dan Bewley is at it again this time in the European Under-21 meeting in Plzen Czech Republic where he has qualified for the Final with a 15pt maximum.

No injury, just decided he needed time away, whether he would be ready to return I wouldn't know but I guess there is only one way to find out.

Its difficult to see what is easy and obvious when your head is buried in the sand.

Yet more impressive scoring from Leon Flint, this time its 16pts in his sides 50-40 win at Belle Vue, I think I`m right in saying that in the next week or so Leon moves from reserve to be the No1 which is quite an achievement when you look at the riders in the Birmingham team who ride regularly in higher leagues.

I`ve watched Leon`s progression from the smaller cc`s right up to the 500`s and even I have been amazed at what he has been doing this season. Thing is with Leon he takes all of this in his stride and keeps his feet firmly on the floor. Hopefully the likes of him and young Kemp will progress over the next few years.

I agree with you Dean, riders these days have the throttle either shut or on full gas and when they are on a track that is iffy once they hit any grip they are a passenger. That`s not to excuse the track conditions at Stoke last Saturday.

Correct, I think Under-21 riders are considered as juniors and all Polish teams must have two of those at reserve. Not everything is perfect in Poland however there is something to be said for what they do with their younger riders.

And how many Robert Lambert`s are there out there. Many tracks now run junior teams, and all of those deserve full credit for playing their part in trying to get young British riders on the road to hopefully a glittering career.

Seems all was not well in the Somerset camp, which has lead to these changes.

It was planned for Ulrich to travel home yesterday, I hope it happened and he is back very soon.

Berwick, Newcastle.

I`d like to see more encouragement to sign young British riders, for example from 16-18 they should be on a protected 2pt average, from 18-21 a 4pt protected average.

Of more importance IMO is the need for two paramedics, that seems to speed up any delays as one paramedic stays with the injured rider to supervise transfer to the county ambulance while the other stays on the centre green which normally lets the meeting continue.

Unfortunately for Birmingham they couldn't pull off a miracle and go out of the NL KOC, yet another double figure score from Leon Flint. http://speedwayupdates.proboards.com/thread/17934/birmingham-nlkoc-l2-17-2018
