I did comment on Kings Lynn so Premiership related. Morris has done pretty much zero as far as I can see to help with anything.

Aside from striding about shouting at track graders with his Britney Spears style headset on, I agree.

Thought you told us for years you get your speedway fix at Redcar and Workington and don't go to Berwick.

How can it have been your first meeting?

Read what I said - It was my first meeting I'd seen at Northside.  I've been to God knows how many meetings since I saw my first speedway meeting at Barrow in 1973.

You have said lots of times on Berwick threads you go to Redcar and Workington to get your speedway fix.

I was just saying that it couldn't have been your first meeting at Workington when you get your speedway fix at Redcar and Workington.

I saw many meetings at Workington at Derwent Park, but it was my first meeting at Northside. How difficult is it to understand that???

Workington stopped racing at Derwent Park many years ago.

For the last few years since Newcastle have unfortunately closed, you have said you get your speedway fix at Redcar and Workington.

You said that about going to Redcar and Workington, not me (we have heard it plenty of times on Berwick threads).

Seems to me you were therefore making it up about going to Workington to make Berwick look bad.

I think what I said was that I hoped to get to Workington at some point in the future. I certainly did NOT say I get my fix at Workington. But feel free to put up the post where I say I go to Workington. I doubt very much you will find it though 'cos I never said it.

 

Tell you what, I'll save you the bother

My actual quote 

That's total rubbish.  Very few of my just over 5,000 posts have been "moaning" about Berwick or "Mr. Barrie".

My "observations" are not all negative about Berwick. Re-read my previous post where I praise previous and the current promotions.

The only thing you are correct about is I go to Redcar by choice.  That's my personal choice.  And when I get the chance, I will head across to the West Coast to go to a Workington meeting.

That's not what I'm on about. It would possibly be last season or the off season that I would be looking for.

Without looking back in the threads (might do at some point) that seems to be you replying to other Berwick fans (not me) for being critical of all things Berwick.

With you getting called out in the first 2 or 3 meetings (by various Berwick posters), you haven't posted as much on Berwick threads.

Don't bother with Steve.

He told me years ago that there are 5 Sundays in a 28 day period when I questioned why Newcastle had a facility when Berwick were at Newcastle.

Let's nip this in the bud shall we?  

Firstly, I am NOT critical of "all things" Berwick.  The only issue I have is the lack of what I would call entertainment of the track/"racing". I certainly don't have a problem with the promotion, in fact I think they do a fantastic job in keeping Berwick going (this includes previous promotions, not just the current ones).  

Again, if you can find me saying that "I get my fix at Workington" (or something to that effect) then by all means post it/quote me, but as I say, you will not find me saying that. Saturday was my first visit to Northside to see speedway.  I visited many years ago with Bob Tasker (GRT Media) when it was still a training track and Worky were still at Derwent Park and GRT recorded the meetings there (at DP), as we did that day. We went to Northside as Bob wanted to see what the set-up was like there. But we didn't see any speedway at Northside. 

I'll wait for the Quote from me.... but it will a be long wait, as I have NEVER said "I go to Workington".
