Crowds getting smaller and Wages and expenses getting bigger don't suggest a thriving business.like you say though 4or 5 people expressing negative views won't make any difference overall because you reckon the majority of fans don't even look on here,after all it is a forum where fans can express their views,Good to hear that everything is rosy in the BigEddie world.

I commented to your good self that the crowd attending Ricky's. Meeting last Sat used to be a normal attendance at Berwick a few years ago,given that ,I am pleased to know that the sport is still thriving in the area giving the crowd levels I have witnessed this season.Once again you are comparing to other sports in the area which is irrelevant to the subject being discussed.It is only last winter that the plugged was going to be pulled if suitable Sponsership could not be found.Speedway in UK is not thriving at any track IMO

Unfortunately you are in the minority ,many have just deserted for the reasons being mentioned .how you can use a Rugby or Football Pitch as an example is beyond me I am afraid.

Some people will like the post for the other content but will be disappointed in some respects I fear. -
7riders committed to the Bandits and a decent prepared track every week is all we need.The rest will take care of itself.

Jamrog certainly knew how to entertain and was very stylish definitely worth a punt if he wants to come to Berwick.Hansen looked ok but if he is going to be riding all over the continent is it worth it.IMO we should be looking for a decent Aussie who rides in Britain for 6 months to make money.,and not these Scandinavian mercenaries who look on GB to top up their continental earnings and don't care anything about the Club.Alternately a young Czech or Slovak who doesn't have a lot of Continental Teams or commitments

Edinburgh V Workington 27/9/13 Plpo
Fromafar replied to Monarchlad's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
your right the two you mention let the team down Rusty was woeful considering he rode there he was like a novice. Lawson wasn't much better. -

Kyle Howarth is very impressive this season and is one of the most improved young riders in GB .IMO.Although Morris had a decent meeting and done most of the passing on the night. -
Somerset V Rye House Ko Cup Final 27/9
Fromafar replied to coomie's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I agree Oldtimer is right missing riders throughout the season just p*ss a lot of fans off.The argument that your still seeing 4 riders doing 4 laps is not working its time the Promoters got this situation under control. -
Results are not going the right way so suddenly its ill thought out,why is defeat at Somerset inevitable look what happened tonight .Moarchs fans are now saying Workington are favourites for their section and they have not even been to Ipswich YET.Have Redcar and Workington not just proved that Play offs can be exciting.Ps I still believe whoever wins the League should be Champs,but have to admit it prolongs the season for more Teams.

Could be wrong but don't think Albin belongs to us.Did he actually sign for Berwick
