Explained by George in last weeks "wrap-a-round" that with Newcastle Utd's last Championship match being played on that day, and "with so many of our staff both front of house and on the track having other priorities that day along with so many medical staff members then we decided to cancel that date all together rather than risking not being able to fulfill our statutory staffing requirements."
I think it was always going to be difficult for Liam Carr at No.2. It will be interesting to see if they were to make any changes.
On tonight's meeting, I thought it was a little strange of Gary H putting Berge out on a tactical in heat 7. He hadn't done anything in his previous outing and he was up against Stevie W.

Just to add the times for Sunday's practice is 1pm and the P&P (which will, again, include the Northern Speedway Launch with riders/officials from Berwick, Redcar and Workington) on Monday now gets underway at 11am (rather than 12 noon as originally planned).

That would be 2012 (unless it was with the Cubs you saw him ride in 2008). He replaced Michal Rajkowski (it was a double change as Kev Doolan also came in, replacing Justin Sedgmen) in the August of that year.
