  1. Total farce all this doubling -up and down,they need to listen to the fans!!
  2. Not so sure of no back-up could have a dark horse in Mark Riss at reserve.If Masters and Wells win afew heats it could be tight IMO
  3. Can see us having a few dodgy home results if things do not pick up,we certainly don't look like play off candidates if early season form is anything to go by.
  4. Who's kidding who regarding Stadium can Pratt be so gullible to state in SS that he expected to be in by end of July.B#llrubbish.
  5. Assume so,doesn't waste words in his sentences when taking details!!!!!!
  6. Probably,but your paid to entertain the public all meeting not just when you feel like it.Winning his first 3 races makes it seem he was just taking the p#ss out of the fans who pay his wages at the end of the day.
  7. One of the most efficient operator on the phone that I have dealt with.Great guy.
  8. That was the only point I was making ,the riders don't won't to ride if it continues to rain nowadays,I have been a regular at Berwick in the last 50 years and it is only Really Since the bikes got to powerful and they needed slick tracks the meetings have not been run in wet conditions I sure there are plenty older fans like myself who seen speedway on wet tracks,Berwick was one of the tracks that held up well in wet conditions compared to a lot of other I have visited.Nowadays if rain is falling we have the big chat at the pit gate before the ref cancels the meeting.IMO that is the downside of track covers.No way am I criticising the Promotions efforts but the riders rule the day not the ref.
  9. Sheffield is a good track but is obviously too slick on many occasions
  10. Its all due to slick track and one racing line at most tracks.Belle Vue is a purpose built track for modern day speedway plenty room to race more than one racing line and produces great racing and is the exception to the rule.Most Polish tracks are in the same mould as Belle Vue and produce reasonable speedway.
  11. While it is commendable what Berwick do regarding covering the track the point is if it raining when the meeting is about to start it is just about certain these days that the riders will do everything they can NOT to ride IMO .This has been proven many times in recent seasons,there is no meetings run in wet conditions nowadays.
  12. Bjerre will love all the room he has round at track like BV he is very fast when in the mood a snip at that average.Plus the league is lower level than a couple of years ago.
  13. I suspect many fane will be just giving speedway a miss if there is rain on the day of a meeting giving the riders attitude nowadays.
  14. Excellent season review and information on tracks and squads etc
  15. Looks like Seb Alden is fit again,names in a couple of Teams in Sweden.
  16. Is this going to be the fastest built stadium in history,Pratt says he hopes to be racing in it in late July.
  17. You have been very unlucky on your visits.Have been a few times and never seen a bad meeting.
