I agree it was an excellent comeback from Edinburgh and in the end they deserved their win.

Craig Cook @the_cookstar · 10h Stick that in yer pipe and smoke it! This drive home back from the hole is much better with 3 points in the bag bye bye bandits Do you mean this little beauty, IMO Cook is the top rider in the PL, and once again this season he has lead the Monarchs superbly, but there`s a way to win and a way to lose. Sadly Cook doesn't come over very well with tweets like this, its clear he doesn't like Berwick or its track, might be an idea to keep things like that to yourself Craig.

Dudek can appeal after six months that he year ban be shortened, coincidently that might happen just before the start of the Polish season, I hope any appeal be rejected and the rider serves his full year ban.

I agree, Berwick have had a decent season, we have deserved our place in the play-offs and even managed to win some away meetings. I like the idea of a big hitting No1 and always have done, however if your going down that route you need a top set of reserves. Berwick this season went for strength in depth and it worked. I hope they go down the same route next year, but we will need new riders if the team is to improve.

ASAP.

Unless there is a strange set of results between Edinburgh and Workington, Berwick`s play-off ambitions are over for this year. Fair play to Edinburgh, only providing 6 race winners and your still winning the meeting takes a bit of doing but that's what happened last night, no coincidence that their fortunes changed once Cook got going, but their real star was Snedden. Three crucial falls while in scoring positions for Edberg, Vissing and Bellego cost Berwick dear, Doolan again was Berwick`s top rider but leading by 10pts at the end of HT10 and going on to lose needs looking at, not the first time that Berwick have lost the second half of the meeting. But the promotion can look back on an improving season in 2014, hopefully we will improve still further for 2015.

In that same meeting Franc scored seven from four including two race wins, I`m sure the promotion will have done their homework to get the best possible guest, as in the reserve position our guest will have to score good points which I`m sure Wethers would've done.

Who on there brother, Ward yes, but Mr Rising hasn't done anything to receive the kind of childish remarks some have posted on here.

Simots scored 9+2 for Plymouth at Berwick in May, that was from seven rides. I agree Franc in a reserve position would've been a good choice, hopefully Simota will do the job tonight.

Cloudy start but there are signs of things brightening up which is the forecast, obviously now we are in the play-offs a 3pt home win is a must. Hopefully Snedden will be over his illness and back in the Monarchs team, if he isn't the Edinburgh promotion will need a better guest than Max Clegg, who they used last night, if they are to get anything from Shielfield tonight.

Thirty nine points round Armadale is something of an achievement for Berwick, though sadly there were no points to be had. Creditable scores from Doolan, Edberg and Wethers, while our No1, a former Edinburgh rider didn't bother the scorers to much, though to be fair to Vissing he does have a big meeting in Poland on Sunday to concentrate on, certainly way more important than representing our club at Sheffield in the PLRC. How he got to be considered good enough to do Ht15 beggars belief.

Cant we get this thread back to slagging off the drunk Ward, that at least is something we can all agree on.

Reasonable is my middle name. It would be nice if other people within speedway posted on here, after all its not all bad.

I`ve always thought that Philip Rising posted on here as a speedway fan, albeit a speedway fan with connections, but a speedway fan non the less. Sad others aren't able to see that.

With no Snedden, Berwick must surely fancy their chances of dominating this meeting in the reserve positions at least.

Its mostly been a week of low cloud, mist and drizzly rain for Berwick, happily the forecast between now and Saturday is an improving one with any drizzle moving away by early Saturday morning. After that Saturday will be a dry day with some brightness.

Prague in May seems good for me.

I hope Berwick would do as much as possible to help their riders gain any advantage going, our track should be as your riders want it every week. Bugger this level playing field nonsense, this is play-off speedway where winning is everything.

Get your excuses in early I like it. Of course the track team at Armadale would never lower themselves to such naughtiness.

Reports on Speedway365 suggest that Howarth will be out for two weeks but hopes to be back to play some part in the play-offs for both Coventry and Workington but giving the extent of his injury that might be a tad optimistic.

I don't think for one minute that Dudek was deliberately trying to cheat, and is guilty of nothing more than being careless or not getting the correct advice when taking his supplement drink. However as I`ve posted before Dudek, as a professional sportsman, is solely responsible for what goes inside his body. Therefore I think todays ban is the correct decision.

Groin, he has returned to Denmark and has been operated on. In some pain, he has been told to rest for two weeks.

Giving the two groups, I`d love to know how the selections went for Edinburgh and Somerset. IMO Edinburgh will get through without to much bother, where as I wouldn't like to pick a winner from the Ipswich, Somerset and Scunthorpe group.

Then if Ward is going down the wonky testing kit route, surely it would be a non-starter, as the others would show faulty results to.
