  1. Track prep is key to decent racing at Berwick IMO.Touchy subject though, even between the riders never Mind the fans.
  2. Don’t think there were many fans thinking that Cook would not be at Belle Vue this season.
  3. Cook needs another visit to his head shrink,he seems to think people owe him a living on his terms these days.Thats not how it works in Speedway.IMO.
  4. What he wants, he gets at Glasgow,it’s the only club he wanted to ride for
  5. Regarding Tv advertising how many times during the season will Cook feature in a Tv fixture,more likely to be about points money or up front payments IMO.Every rider has his Sponsership on their suits ,the colour contrast surely has to be suitable to highlight the Sponsership does it really matter if it’s company colours as long as you can read the Logo.
  6. Your right,it just a money grab for greedy riders,Cook probably needs the money to finance his GP losses last season which we all heard about with the sob stories.
  7. We will have whip round and see if we can afford to send you a season highlights DVD in Oct.
  8. Read previous post Ihave explained it.
  9. Not a surprise,that’s typical with speedway rules.
  10. Might be a bit of a tight squeeze to get between the bikes nowadays Norman
  11. Clegg needs to surprise himself at the bigger tracks Imo.
  12. The starting Marshall signals to the Ref that the riders are line up,then proceeds to walk away ,their will be a slightly longer delay until he clears the back wheels before ref releases the tapes.Its called the Sarjeant rule The difference being the ref will put the green light on before the ref walks away whereas before the light was put on after the ref walked away hence a longer delay.
  13. Wallinger talks a good game, very much doubt he will bring it to the track.
  14. Very sad news,his books were excellent and his knowledge of the sport 1st class.R.I.P John.
  15. Just read that Dennis McCleary is stepping down as Co promoter and cutting back on his work with Bandits and Football,wish him all the best,his contribution to the Speedway over the years was immense and will be greatly missed.A gentleman IMO.
  16. Looks like you will have to pay admission to find out
  17. Luke Ruddick signed for Berwick last year,don’t know if he is on loan to Edinburgh or they have bought him though.
  18. I think the attendances have increased at Glasgow but not to the level the Promotion were the expecting.They certainly have gave it their best shot regarding improving facilities and trying to make it attractive for kids who are the future supporters.
  19. It’s only in Speedway where your punished for giving your all for your Team all season.It cannot be taken seriously as aProfessional Sport these days,like people say 4 guys 4 laps if your entertained fair enough but we are not attracting many new fans .Will see how this season pans out .#hit or Bust for a few Clubs season IMO.
