Perfectly put, the Supporters Clubs doesn't even get a mention on the clubs news letters, I will check last nights programme as I am sure up coming events will be advertised there.

Apart from one poster who seems to believe everything is fine and dandy it would appear that many regulars are thinking about whether or not to go to the speedway in future weeks, when you hear long serving fans saying they haven't renewed season tickets, or fans for the first time ever walking out before the end that must have the alarm bells ringing. To be honest on what we saw last night you cant blame them, ultra slick track, gate and go processional racing lightened only by one excellent ride by Craig Cook who somehow managed to be last away from the tapes yet was yards clear by the end of the race. I actually felt sorry for some of the riders, particularly Doolan and Barker who in a couple of the later heats rode their you know what's off and went nowhere. Thankfully its Scunthorpe next week, defeat against them is unthinkable. This will be the first time this season where Berwick have raced on the same night of a SGP, it will be interesting to see the crowd level as, with no disrespect to them, the Scorpions don't exactly travel in huge numbers so the promotion will be relying on the people of Berwick and surrounding areas to come out and not stay at home.

EuroSport 1 at 7pm.

I`m sure he will, Edberg's kit is all top notch stuff and immaculately turned out, he has a big roll to play in the Berwick team and has started the season reasonably well, lets hope that keeps going tonight.

Dry night overnight in Berwick and dry now, improving weather picture for the rest of the day with no rain. Berwick will be victorious tonight, R/R will bring in more points for the unfortunate Voldrih, though with Alex Edberg blowing up his best motor at Somerset last night lets hope his second engine is as good as his first.

The names of Paco Castagna and Ed Krcmar was suggested during the close season as possible signings, maybe Berwick could go back to one of them. Obviously with signing young riders comes the chance of missing meetings, but it seems this is the way speedway in GB is going, positive thing with signing a Krcmar or a Castagna is the club gets a new asset, and if Voldrih is fit enough to resume his Berwick career later in the season we could have two new assets.

In an age where todays commentators never seem to stop talking Ritchie Benaud seemed to say a thousand words by using only one, a true gent and cricketing legend. RIP Ritchie

Spring has certainly sprung in Berwick this week, and the weather`s set fair for tomorrow. There might be a bit of light rain around dawn but that will clear to leave a dry, sunny Saturday, wont be quite as warm as of late, because of a stronger wing, but all in all a good forecast for Saturday.

Perfect illustration from Newcastle of how a strength in depth team works, apart from Crang only 2pts covering the rest of the side. Worrying times ahead by the sounds of things for Redcar.

Nigella, that should get a few more through the gate.

Lawson might be the one to replace Voldrih, you heard it here first.

Mr Cook slates most things on Twitter, including this forum, but hay-ho each to their own. Berwick`s points from R/R will be the difference to see them win this match, must admit I`m more worried about Masters than Cook.

Message from Matic Voldrih via his Facebook page. Zdravo vsem. Kot že veste sem v ponedeljek grdo padel na tekmi v Krškem in utrpel zakompliciran zlom desne noge (golenice/mečenice). Operacija naj bi uspela, ampak moram ostati v bolnici zaradi nevarnosti okužbe z bakterijo. Upam, na čimprejšnje okrevanje. Pa hvala vsem za lepe želje! Hi everyone. As you know I had a motorbike accident on a race in monday in Krško and I have a complicated and open fracture of tibia and fibula. The operation was supposed to be successful but I have to stay in the hospotal because there is a danger to get my open wound infected. I really hope I will get better soon. Thanks to all for nice wishes!

Seems the best idea, though now the leagues in Sweden, Poland etc are starting up most riders who aren't racing over here will have contracts to race in one or both of those leagues. Berwick plucked Voldrih out of nowhere maybe they can do the same again. Adding up isn't this particular posters strong point, last week should she couldn't get the Glasgow team to add up to seven.

Having seen the Matic Voldrih crash its fair to say his injuries, although nasty, could've been worse, he has undergone surgery to repair the break, hopefully he makes a full ans swift recovery. Better news on Thomas Jorgensen who crashed at Glasgow, he is ok a ready for Saturday`s meeting with Edinburgh, albeit with a sore shoulder.

Wethers didn't meet the visa criteria to start the season, so would unlikely to get one now, but your right he would've done a job though on a 5-50 average it might've been a bit to high, it would depend on when the first set of averages come out for team building.

According to the BSPA site Tresarrieu`s average would be 5-44, with Farnc 5-67.

Aarnio isn't a bad shout, though under unfortunate circumstances going with R/R in the short term would probably strengthen Berwick, and give the club more time to look for an adequate replacement. Most riders who didn't start the season over here might have taken contracts to ride in leagues abroad, meaning inevitable fixture clashes.

Best wishes to Matic on a speedy recovery, bad news for club and rider.

Excellent news, though it seems some paying customers weren't to happy with the racing it served up, the referee who was there last Saturday might only come to Berwick once or twice a year, your trying to get the paying customers there every week. Not unless you want to fill Shielfield Park with referees every week of course.

And you needed to post on here to tell us that.

Was the six from Glasgow part of the Glasgow management/promotion. I take you are part of the VIP Club.

Absolutely, and thanks to to the club for advertising the Supporters Club bus via their news letters.....oh.

Delighted to say it looks like the Supporters bus that went up to Glasgow was virtually full, hope everyone enjoyed a good trip to the speedway.
