Who was the referee as the listed referee was standing in the back of the box and not in control of the buttons? When I go to the football I usually get a trained referee and not a trainee doing a professional game. Lee didn’t steam past when Adam fell ,he knocked him off on the way past, not many Berwick fans were complaining ,even on the 3rd bend.Good win for Bears but Berwick very unlucky losing Jye,think it probably made the difference.

Spot on decision sadly. Lee gave Adam nowhere to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I go to the football I usually get a trained referee and not a trainee doing a professional game. I was standing at the bar on the back straight when Roynon fell. Complin hadn't steamed past he hit Roynon who was maybe going slower into the bend. No malice but Complin took him off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would've made no difference, if Morris had won heat 14, a 4-2 heat advantage would still have left Berwick 4 points down after heat 14.

Bandit59 Posted May 15, 2022 Report Share Posted May 15, 2022 Well done to the Bears last night , taking advantage of Berwick's bad luck hope Jye won't be out long just when he was riding really well, certainly would have scored more than the 3 points his rides got.Two very good guests for us last night,Flinty senior hopefully will get some of the same for our travels next week.Very good effort from the Bandits,Riss and Wright always ride Berwick well and our old friend Kasper as well,wish the Bandits good luck on their travels next week.

screm Posted May 15, 2022 Report Share Posted May 15, 2022 Least enjoyable meeting of the season so due to the stop start nature, understandable with the Jye Etheridge crash in Ht1, but the incessant tractor, water breaks meant the meeting took well over two hours to run. Berwick had very little luck and after losing Etheridge their task was virtually impossible but they did make a decent fist of things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe someone could point out a weather forecast or two and necessary preparations made. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fortythirtyeight Posted May 15, 2022 Report Share Posted May 15, 2022 Not the greatest of spectacles as far as the racing goes and the Bears could be counted as a touch fortunate to race against a five man side but overall I think they deserved the win. The Bandits riders did seem a little disconcerted with the track which may have been drier than they expected meaning only three ‘ overtakes ‘ all meeting and two of them by the Bears ( Andersen and Jenkins ). The over worked Bandits battled hard right through till the end and Morris’s last race efforts denied the Bears the extra point. All the Bandits had the odd poor ride due to missing the gate but the main body scored well and kept it close throughout. Complin a little wild but entertaining although Roynon may not agree. Bickley hot and cold but old man Pijper impressed. Bears we’re reasonably solid , heat leaders , particularly Riss, did their job, Andersen rode as was expected at Berwick , Roynon did his role and the reserves were competitive . Berwick understandably had plenty of track breaks to give their riders breathing space but there was also medical treatment handed out to both Etheridge and Roynon and the riders bikes were being weighed before and during the meeting by officials so yes, it did takes its toll. Berwick is still a club to be admired the way it’s run, on a budget but professionally and with very friendly staff and supporters. Always an enjoyable club to visit . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe difference in prem is you can't do a reserve change for your RS unless injured Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
