Berwick V Newcastle - Live On Sky - May 21st
Fromafar replied to luluthetiger's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
you are just sh** stirring on last nights meeting that was a decent meeting IMO.Berwick track always resembles a ploughed field on the outside line which none of the riders go near for whatever reason it is prepared like this . -

I here they sell rose tinted glasses at the track shop ,maybe they make the difference. -
Good post explaining the situation,but regarding the size of crowd I think the problem is in recent years there have been too many times meetings have been called off by the riders not wanting to" give it a go"(fair enough) but fans who travel distances take this into account and give it a miss.I years gone bye riders would start a meeting on a wet track but nowadays they are reluctant to ride in these situations.

You have your opinion and I respect what you say but IMO the sport has been allowed to develope this way and that too me have been its downfall.You get to the end of the season and guests are helping teams that may hamper their own teams chances whats the point in that? I am afraid I just cant take the sport seriously anymore . I like to see a good meeting irrepective of the result but even they are getting few and far between these days.I think you are lucky at Scunthorpe as you seem to have a decent track and see better meetings than most.I certainly enjoyed my visit last year.

Considering giving this a miss till they can make up their mind as to how to prepare the track,for the fans or for the riders .I would have thought prepare a decent track and tell the riders to get on with it. -
Just need to replace the screaming banshee Pearson and it will be perfect.

Have to agree ,Alex may regret making that statement (if he did make it)Fans can only take out of it that he has lost his confidance or he was having" a go" at the state of the track without speaking too the right people before making the statement. He has created trouble of his own making IMO -

changing the track every week till you get it right is not the answer IMO.make it the same every week and tell the riders to adapt to it. -

The track should be prepared for the start of the season,you cant wait till half way through the season to get it right,there will be nobody left to watch it at this rate.
