Agree, we need weekly speedway or at least fortnightly, having 3 -4 week gaps, folk will find something else to do with their time and money 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortening the Championship season from April to August would push the same number of meetings into a shorter timescale and give the impression of a busier calendar, and more regular fixtures for fans. Once you get to September the weather is a lottery. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

szkocjasid Posted 17 hours ago Report Share Posted 17 hours ago According to the unofficial averages, Kildemand will get a new average of 7.71 next Saturday. That will leave Berwick 2.15 under the points limit. Will they look to strengthen up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team has the potential when it’s all firing on the same night but 33/40 from three riders was concerning last night. Had one of the top 3 had an off night or bike issues it would have been a complete hammering. If nothing else the lower end of the team needs to be picking up a few more points away from home. We are missing wood but 3 points between 3 riders lost the meeting last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would he come back on his old average or would he be reassessed? If he is reassessed could Hagon or Hume make way for him, Stuart isn't afraid to be ruthless with changes and if I remember correctly he was close with Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Wood is fit again, can go to Edinburgh to replace Parker? I know it's not Berwick's prerogative to worry about Edinburgh strengthening up, but they'd have the knowledge a rider they are dropping (who has done nothing wrong) won't be without a team place for long, as I'm sure no club likes to leave a rider on the sidelines.
