I attended most of the Provincial League matches at Edinburgh from 1960-64,some great matches,Monarchs favourites were Dick Campbell,Wayne Briggs,George Hunter,the Templetons,Jimmy Cox and many more. Ian Hoskins was the ultimate showman and there was always added attractions.Great visiting riders were Tony Lewis Guy Allott Jack Scott Trevor Redmond Jack Kitchen Charlie Monk Ivan Mauger and Clive Featherby who was the" villain "in these days.great memories.

The. Border Trophy is at stake!

I take it that the assault on the mechanic is subject to a police enquiry?

That's the bottom line.

To go along with the "Border Trophy"hype.maybe they should now reconsider how to run the Play offs now that the dead rubber syndrome has arisen.

I would not think they pay any where near the costs that have been mentioned regarding turnstile people,transportation and Bank Charges to justify £3 difference on admission but it seems to work for them ,certainly crowds are not as big as they would have you imagine IMO .

I knew that they offer discount online to all matches.If that's what you were told fair enough does seem a bit steep regarding charges.

What are your thoughts on different price on the day of match.

IMO a strength in depth Team are weakened byR/R if the other Teams Heat leaders are up to scratch and with Bach in the Team after missing the previous match at Berwick he could made difference,remember it was Kus at reserve taking extra rides that saved Berwick on a couple of occasions when called on .Apart from Vissing our Heat Leaders are Inconsistent at Home IMO .Jacobs and Lambert could give Edberg trouble and Wethers is not in best shape with injury recently .Should be a good match though.

£19 if I remember correctly.(could be wrong though. Personally I don't think paying more on the day is a good thing in a sport that is struggling for support.Not everybody has internet access.

If Bach has a good meeting Berwick will need a good meeting from our reserves to get a result with R/r for Kus Imo

Not seen anything regarding that if you go to official website and look at buy tickets .

Only if you buy online before Friday otherwise it's £27 ,which is annoying to casual fans ,obviously they are well supported not to need these type of fans.

He has been rumoured the last few seasons but has never materialised.Probably to expensive.Im not a fan of him I'm afraid.

Still young and is talented hard to judge how good he will be.I hope he stays ,but I also have that gut feeling.

your theory is sound, but only if he wants to continue in British Speedway.Most of the Continental Tracks are big and racy and that is probably where he really wants to be IMO.

Unfortunately he will be tied-up with the GP 's on a Sat.

Only if we sign riders that can improve their average and keep him at reserve.

An "out and out" No1 is a rider that can win important races Home and Away like heats 13 & 15. Berwick did not have that rider in a lot of meetings especially away from home. Based on green sheet av.from start of season. Vissing. -0.20 Doolan. -0.40 Bellego. -0.30 Jensen. +0.64 Kus. +1.33 Wethers. -1.29 Edberg. 0.00. Did well to finish 4th IMO. .

Horton is just a wide-boy wouldn't trust him to run a raffle,why do they keep giving him clubs to run ,guaranteed failure.Peterborough is one of the finest racing tracks in the country.

Impressed with Nike in junior meeting

Mr Rising needs to keep Bert Harkins of the "sherbets" before he does his column in the the Star,this week he states Peter Waite was helping exBandit Martin Smolinski in the pits,did Smolinski ever ride for Berwick ,IMO No.

Straight Knock-out is the obvious answer,be interesting to see if anything changes next season .(doubt it though).

Simon Stead 9.96 is hardly shabby.

Find it hard to believe where Edinburgh get there forecasts,never seen any that didn't suggest the wet weather was coming back in this evening(if it ever stopped in most of the Lothians).probably gambled with it being Newcastle and fairly local opposition.How many times this season have they said Definately On only to call off late on.
