Surely they could have saved a few quid on the fireworks for their Air fence?

[PersonalResponsibility]

Couldn't they have stuck the fireworks display into the fence fund? It's like a warzone 😂

The fact that the meeting was poor entertainment with a drag race to the first bend made for finger in the fast forward button.

OK I known I'm drunk...but is that a Pirates fan genuinely complaining that someone else's track is gate and go?!?!?!?

Just got back in from the meeting, I would like to congratulate Berwick riders and fans your a credit to your club and thoroughly deserved winners, tonight was the biggest crowd I have seen in all my time of going to Plymouth speedway so I’m sure after the money I saw being pumped into collection buckets and what was made on the gate tonight they should have raised quite a pretty sum towards the costs, i hope the person who was taken poorly in the stand will be ok.hopefully we will be at tapes next season but if not what a ride it has been, congratulations to Poole for winning the double, and also congratulations again to. Berwick.

Congrats to the Bandits riders, management and fans.  Great to see a club winning something after so many years. Saddened to see PK finish this way, one of my favourite riders especially as a Comet. Shame he will also miss the Premiership Playoff final. 

[Bandit59]

Well worth the wait for the Bandits, pleased for everyone involved at the club from the management and all the volunteers who help out weekly and the fans(well done to all who travelled down), also all us forum fannies, hope Mr Dickson is feeling better now.Gutted for PK to have to finish his season like that, also best wishes to Scotty, hope the Glads make it back next season.

[Bagpuss]

Well done Bandits.

Terrific meeting last night with a cracking atmosphere.  Well done Berwick on winning the cup and Plymouth for putting on such a great show.  Well worth the trip down.

Wouldn’t take any notice of this idiot mate, attention seeker when he should really keep quiet.

Just giving a bit back, as Pirate fans we have to put up with a lot of abuse and criticism of our track, some justified but not all, even when there is a meeting with plenty of passing which does happen we still dont get much praise.

Go and crawl back under your rock. This meeting was about Berwick and Plymouth - and two genuine sets of the supporters - and not Poole, who don't even both to announce the riders in white and yellow for each race because it's all about them

Cracking meeting last night at Plymouth - really enjoyable. Was stood with the Bar Bandits, while the Berwick fans were brilliant - haven't seen celebrations with as much emotion for a long time

I know who were the teams involved, I did not watch it myself I was responding to a post about Poole. It is not my fault my team was mentioned. I am glad you enjoyed the meeting.

[TheWellBehavedWorrall]

Congratulations to the Bandits. Delighted for the riders, management, fans and the town of Berwick as a whole. A lovely part of the country with great people.

Best wishes and regards to PK, Nicholls, Stewart Dickson and the fan who took unwell.

Stop crying you silly old Fanny 💦💦

Would moving the start gate back reduce the carnage in the 1st corner?  Too many pile ups when riders go in there fully committed like last night.

Nope, but bringing the white line in three metres all the way around would.

Only way to pass is to practically put yourself in the fence like Barker does but he is as crazy as a rainbow trout in a car wash.

You have to shut your eyes everytime the tapes go up and hope they make round the 1st Bend.😂
