Tonight's meeting has been re-arranged for this coming Wednesday at 7-30pm.

Sad really as I believe this thread could've been very entertaining over tonight and tomorrow.

To be fair to the club, right up till 4-30pm IMO the meeting would've been very much on, the drizzle turned to rain which then turned to heavy rain. I`m sure at 6pm when the meeting was called off there would've been little alternative. Probably not much of a consolation to those who have to come any kind of difference but there you go. As I look out now the rain has all but stopped.

Called off just before 6pm, of course the silver lining to this particular cloud is that come the re-arrangement Berwick should be back to full strength with Bellego back in the team.

Forecast now showing rain till around 7pm, then becoming drier. I`ve been confident of seeing speedway all day, for the last couple of hours we have had steady now heaving rain, I leave now in hope rather than confidence.

Rain heavier than before, still misty, weather has closed right in over the last hour or so.

We have a heavy mist and drizzle in Berwick just now, it seems there has been rain all around Berwick today which has all missed Berwick, until now.

Drizzle has started again.

The weathers Gods have certainly smiled on Berwick today, the forecast heavy showers so far haven't turned up. Its been dull, misty and grey all day and but for a sprinkling of rain around lunchtime its been dry, so looks like we will get a meeting tonight. PS I wouldn't mind a pound every time we here the word smug from the centre green this evening.

The drizzle has now all but stopped, bit misty, at the minute IMO there isn't any reason why we shouldn't get a meeting tonight, lets hope it stays that way.

Fairly steady light drizzle now, looks well set in, hopefully this will go over soon.

Dry in Berwick overnight and dry right now, though it is very cloudy. Thundery showers are forecast from mid-morning to mid-afternoon, then its an improving picture, so right now its all down to how many or how heavy the showers are that will determine if we get racing tonight.

Don't worry I use my own calculations, its far more accurate. Nonsense, the title of this thread is "end of Monarchs unbeaten run", we have nothing to fear.

How many points we get from R/R determine whether we win this meeting or not, Wethers, Jensen, Carr and Kus are the eligible riders. I`m thinking Kus could be a busy boy IMO.

Best wishes to Schramm on a long and happy retirement.

Footy is a loose term for what is normally served up on the pitch.

With the weather being so lovely in Berwick today its difficult to believe the forecast for tomorrow isn't so clever, but not so clever it is. Saturday will be a warm and humid day with the threat of heavy thundery rain showers, mostly in the morning and the middle part of the day. From mid-afternoon onwards the forecast is an improving one, hopefully the damage will not have been done by then. Fingers crossed we miss most of the rain and are treated to a decent meeting.

Sounds are great idea, but it would take some setting up but if we could get it going it would be a huge positive from this forum.

Quite possibly, so all Peterborough have to do then is re-declare using another 3pt average rider.

Should these changes, including Schlein, fit, then I don't see any reason why Peterborough should be able to re-declare.

One would like to believe that Berwick would make "every effort to put on the best possible show" for each and every meeting staged at Shielfield.

Anywhere that will have him.

Aspegren is racing in Sweden, Aarnio is still racing around Europe.

Did you book on line or by phone.

I was told about the possibility of pickpockets while in Prague, happily everything was fine and to be honest I felt no more threatened there than walking around any big city, you just need to be careful, for example is probably isn't the best idea to be walking around late at night with hundreds of pounds worth of camera sticking out your bag, especially around the touristy bits like Charles Bridge or Wenslases Square.
