For your £160 you should get 12 PL meetings 2 League Cup meetings 1 KOC meeting So if you go to everyone of those meetings,and pay at the gate,it would cost you £180.The real saving comes of course if Berwick qualify for the later stages of the two Cup competitions,and Im sure there will be Challenge meetings which will be included on your season ticket. Only answering your post,you`d already edited it,so I took as it read.Our club has 3 owners now,I thought of you. The three owners have stressed that much work has still to be done in raising the financial backing the club requires in order to come to the tapes for the start of the Premier League season in 2013. Quoted off our offical site.

Off you go then.

Id be surprised to see Franc racing over here full stop. Very harsh IMO.
-
Disappointed that Alden wont be with us next year,and given his name is being circulated for transfer it looks like he wont ride for Berwick again.Good rider and he will be missed,but riders come and riders go,theres still enough riders out there to make Berwick a compeditive team for 2013.
-
I was always cinfident we would run next season,though this is still good news to hear,Im also sure there will be news of a new team sponsor in the next week or three. Thats also a cracking deal on season tickets,heres one soldier who will be taking out a 2013 season ticket.I know £160 is alot to find for some fans but for those who can afford it Id suggest you do so,your saving money and a decent sized cash injection into the club at the start of the season has to be good.

Well that my deal with Redcar speedway off if the change to the points scoring stays . I'm now a big point money earning rider so therefore this change will hit me hard ...... Yet again the cost cutting his the rider ! . Maybe others in the sport should do there jobs a bit better and maybe things would be different . Riders wages have not gone up for quite some time but parts for the bikes do ..... The selected parts we have to buy are over priced !!! And not an open market place !! So demand stupor prices ! . Fuel cost rise , our fuel payments have been the same for 6/7 years !!! Now we lose point money . Ooooo but the elite keep there bonus points ??? Think that's grounds for discrimination !!! Don't you think ? . Well done agm members Wilkinsons post Facebook

I suppose anythings possible.

Carl Wilkinsons deal with Redcar is off.
-
After his exploits last season Im hoping enough lessons were learned that will see Jason King nowhere near any Berwick team for next season.

Bellego was based in Berwick-upon-Tweed all year,and enjoyed himself thoroughly,what he,Glasgow,or Berwick thought I wouldnt know but one thing is clear,he is now a Berwick rider.Should,and its a very un-likely should,Berwick not run for 2013,Bellego could be a very attractive signing for someone.
-
Your right but then again you will probably hear the same from virtually every other promoter pre-season.Though Silver isnt normally to far away.
-
Untill all the other teams are filled its difficult to say just how good this Rye House team is,Allen at one will be a decent scorer and Im sure theres improvement is most of the others.I listened to Silver on the radio last week and he was very positive about next years Rye House team.
-
Your right but surely if Glasgow were so sure about Bellego they wouldve included him in last years team.

North And South Premier League
screm replied to Eric Parsons's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Crowds are dwindling with 15 heats,are you really suggesting people should pay the same money for 13 heats. -
Best information Ive got is this,Bellego rode for Glasgow in five home PL meeting,against Newport x2,Sheffield,Somerset,Scunthorpe,he rode in 3 away meetings in the PL,at Newport,Somerset and Scunthorpe,he rode in 4 KOC meeting home and away against Newport and then Newcastle.All in all thats 7 home meetings and 5 away meetings,if the asset rule was 6 home and 6 away then clearly he did not do enough away meetings,though whether that rule was still around is up for debate. Whatever the rights and wrongs the BSPA have ruled,and Bellego is a Berwick rider,time to move on.
-
If it came down to a choice of Campton over Bellego,even as far as costs go,then Glasgow did indeed drop a clanger,as you say had Glasgow declared Bellego in their 1-7 last season there would never have been this debate. Course you could always loan him from Berwick for 2013.
-
Yes it appears I was wrong,and Bigeddiechek has a brick with his name on it.
-
As far as I know its PL or nothing,as their statement of intending to run in the PL at the recent AGM indicates,as Ive posted Im sure we will run next year.
-
As I posted if Bellegos done enough meetings for Glasgow then he`s a Glasgow asset,I cant see why theres such a delay.As you say the BSPA did indeed say they would make a firm decision at their piss up err sorry AGM last weekend,but I guess their still making up their minds......Im sure it wont be much longer.
-
Did Bellego ever do enough offical meetings for Glasgow in the 2011 season,if he did then he should be a Glasgow asset,but now that Glasgow Speedway has changed hands I wonder if Bellego was part of the club that the new owners bought a few weeks ago. If Bellego did not do enough meetings to become an asset then he will be a Berwick asset,and he has certainly done enough meetings to qualify as such.
-
Just everthing else then. I get the point of the tactical ride,and seen it work both for and against Berwick,but still dont like it and its a rule Id have thought had run its course by now.Yes that particular race can be exciting especially if the tactical riders is beaten,bit IMO it distorts the final score to much.
-
So we mightve found a true Champion team,jobs a goodun. Tactical rides seems unfair to me,but Id guess Im in the minority,I also think they are here to stay.

Redcar V Berwick 6th Sept
screm replied to Catch Me If You Can's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
No bother anytime. -
Agree with you on the double tactical ride,it makes a mockery of the sport,and favours top heavy teams.Id do away with tactical rides and tactical substitutes,staying only with reserve replacements.I also go back to bringing in the bonus point,no change in the current scoring system,but just with the bonus point added. Speedway needs rebranded,and modernized,its an extreme sport so market as such. Now that the annual conference is out of the way,you`d think the BSPA would want to know fairly swiftly what Berwicks plans are.Im guessing the promotion have given some sort of positive noises at the AGM,and Im hoping we will hear something positive very soon.Im still confident we will run.
