  1. If you stay at home and watch theGP you will be pi##ed and not be able to drive your car for a week!! Its the standard answer from you I'm afraid ,we will see how much of the new regulars are there at the end of the season,because is that is the standard of entertainment they will be the new fan base.
  2. Trouble is they are having trouble attracting this new blood that you crave.Wonder why? He also past Jorgensen in the race that he pasted Doolan so make that 3
  3. Deserved win for Monarchs,Cook was superb made Berwick top men look like juniors,but when see see him winning by the length of the straight in the fastest times of the season that are still nearly 2 seconds outside the track record you the have to think that track was rubbish .Apart from 1race where Cook passed both Bandits in consecutive laps passing was non existant .I never heard so many diehard supporters saying they have just about had enough of follow my leader.If it's the riders that want the track prepared as slick as it has been this season they will soon have nobody to pay their wages.Results are secondary to me if I see an entertaining meeting bur even I am have second thoughts about travel 125ml round trip to watch that rubbish on display tonight.Once again though that was a masterclass from Cook and was the highlight of the night for me.(and I don't even like the guy).Doolan couldn't even pass Sedgeman or Branford in Ht 8,will he blame the track though ,probably not.Whats the refs report for this week, cold and chilly.
  4. Many years ago I was speaking to the late Peter Vandenberg and he told me at that time in New Zealand you had to demonstrate that skill before your were issued with a licence .Perhaps it should be introduced here to help younger riders learn more skills.
  5. Gating Thats what British Speedway is all about these days I'm afraid.
  6. According to the match programme we raced Glasgow in the Tyne/ Tweed Trophy last season.!!
  7. if you look on Berwick 2015 thread post there is a post showing the crash from racers and royals.It is certainly different to your description
  8. Cook doesn't do himself any favours with his Facebook ,Twitter comments .I Personaly am not on these sites yet I seem to always be hearing about his comments through this forum.
  9. If Riss takes to Shielfield it will be mighty close,Slick track and Cook will clean up if he gates.
  10. Cook is very overrated ,easily upset then takes the hump.He is as good as he is going to be.
  11. I believe Pepe has a wildcard to Longtrack champs so that would rule him out IMO
  12. don't think he is even in the country at the moment Is he?
  13. Pour yourself another drink if that's the best you can come up with.!!
  14. Name current rider 5+ average who is going to improve it over this season that is avialable.
  15. Another try at an assessed 5pt man would be the best bet ImoWish Matic a good recovery,sounds quite a nasty break.Unlucky start to his Berwick career.
  16. I have a brother who was at university you know.He disagrees with you.
  17. Didn't come over in that manner to the casual observer IMO
  18. you quote hits the nail on the head IMO .we have promoters paying over the odds just to outdo each other .the fans rally round each year at these clubs so they just do the same again the next season then plead poverty again.Edinburgh Promotion being one of the main culprits IMO .Their fans are fantastic in their fund raising efforts though.
