  1. Fine by me.its just the title of the thread is Who is the winner, not where is it held!
  2. Why all the bickering,it ludicrous to think about changing venue because a club has had its AirFence vandalised (no disrespect to Plymouth). A donation from the BSPA would solve everything if that was the case.
  3. Be very surprised if Cresent Girl criticises Dick for obvious reason.
  4. Admit it was strange one,but it was also clear that something untoward happened,history now though.A draw was a fair result though.
  5. Strange summing that there was nothing wrong ,when you say clearly Berwick riders saw something that other didn't and obviously the person with the camera caused a bit of confusion!!! on track 2 riders stopped after 10 mtrs ,that's what was wrong.
  6. Injury free I fancy Newcastle will be major contenders for title.
  7. Decent meeting track rode well,Bandits deserved something out meeting.Though the ref got it wrong in ht 11.when 2 riders pull up within 10metres looking at each other it obvious something was not right.
  8. Dont see any accusations or allegations How did it go on Sat regarding the training track at Duns is that a separate venture to Berwick Speedway.?
  9. Think for the sport to continue in Berwick ther would have to be a certain amount of goodwill regarding to who wants take buy them out ( if anybody).Difficult times IMO .
  10. This not having full Teams nonsense has to cut out.Fixture lists adhered to free dates before cut -off should be used.Blank race days just harms the sport.Some teams hardly had a fixture in July that's a joke .
  11. An accountant in Speedway,figures will not mean a lot .
  12. While the track staff deserve credit, natural watering of the track by the weather always seems to produce a better track on the day if the rain stops in time.Proves that turning up on the day and watering is not always best track prep.
  13. although we're having a little fun about Kelvin,I must admit I enjoyed his commentary with Chris the other night before shouty Pearson took over again.
  14. How to you reckon that,If the riders have to slow a little it will be an opertunity for some others to take a chance.As it is just now they are ALL going flat out into the bend.
  15. While your right about the width of the track,and it will never be altered I still think if they severely reduced the banking in the 3rd4th bend it would slow the riders down and give better racing.Ask any rider and they will tell you they just keep the throttle pinned going into the bend as it is.Take the banking away and they would have to slow it down a bit.Think that is the least of the worries just now though.The racing has been poor I the last couple of season with the track being slick.IMO.
  16. Looks like they have track to match Hyde Rd again.
  17. The bottom line is the Promotion holds all the Aces,just depends how they play them.
  18. Keeping the franchise on the Burger Van might be a nice little earner for them though.!!
  19. Think it is difficult to work out what a speedway club is worth.Rider assets are very speculative on their value,do they get their Bond repayed or is it included in the selling price.Speedway is going through very difficult times nowadays,nobody is going to outlay silly money to take a club over IMO .
  20. That does not sound like a rumour to me,and probably the real situation within the club.
  21. Sore Loser and bullsh#t look at the heat results all the decent riders won from 2 outside gates it was pretty even over the meetingThe top 5 were either 1st or 2nd in all their riders from the outside 2 gates.
