  1. It's well known in the sport regarding Berwicks wages policy which is correct,the sad fact about the sport is that all the Promotions can't stick together pay a sensible points rate that they can all afford and be a viable Club. But that will never happen to much one-upmanship among Clubs run mainly by enthusiasts with money that soon diminishes once the wages bill lands on their lap.Set a pay rate if the riders don't want to play tell them where to go,it's better than being Champs at the end off the season and Bankrupt .The crowds I have seen around the country certainly are not paying for the running costs of the majority of Clubs.
  2. To many fixtures have failed to be re arranged because Teams don't want to ride because of missing riders (riding elsewhere).next season there has to be cut off dates KO Cup and League cup if not ridden then the Team who can't ride concedes tie.
  3. These Czech riders being mentioned in this topic are all exciting talents but given their Continental commitments can't see them coming to Berwick for a weekend fixture and more important IMO the money on offer.
  4. think the playoff should be either top 4 or. Maybe top 8 and knock out formula, eliminates dead rubbers.
  5. He is only one of many, will soon be forgotten if he is not around.Speedway doesn't need the publicity he brings to the sport.
  6. Fair play to Harris on the night,but he must have thought it was his Birthday when the rain made the track to his liking . Covetti could have caused severe embarrassment to BSI if Kildemand had not fallen and the race re-run
  7. It's ridiculous to give local riders wild cards in this situation.they should go back through the qualifiers and pick next in line what if the other "local" had got through, also they are spoilers when really they should not be there.
  8. He certainly does long track and grass track so unless he was giving it up it is a waste of time +too old IMO lets sign riders for the future.
  9. should the Title of this Post not be changed to the correct Starting Time.It is quite misleading.
  10. Heard a rumour that it was a rumour .
  11. Agree,needs revamped possibly to same as EL ,Top 4 Play off.It could be Berwick vWorkington in a couple of weeks time are meaningless after this week end.3 week gap which Berwick are having is not what you want at this time of year.
  12. If they have any sense they will go to Ipswich.£25 to watch a sub standard ELRC is a joke .
  13. There's a few dreamers on this topic.Reality will soon kick in though.
  14. I agree about shambles,but Doolan is a guest from aTeam in the group if that theory is correct
  15. Have to agree but chances of it happening are slim. Given the state of British Speedway .
  16. Peter Collins had an 8.4 average in his first full season in British League he was 18 though .
  17. But it does mean you might have to pay a loan fee for the rider if he is an asset of another club.
  18. When you read the scrapes he has been in he comes over as Cumbria's Darcy Ward.!!
