Yes the fair ground will be there on Saturday pulls down on Sunday 08/09/2019

Thats the first time you have ever come up with a good idea Dick, there's hope yet for you.

Bring a tent, camp outside Black & Gold

sunny with a breeze

Tour Of Britain Sunday and Monday, you will be very lucky to get a vavancy . Bl**dy cyclists will be everywhere

No gloating Sean mind, if they turn us over

Not yet ! Will be when Johnsson and Trump get together, wonder if Trump has placed an offer to buy Scotland

The curfew states no engines to be started before 6.30, don't think it actually mentions the racing

Berwick has a curfew, racing between 6.30 and 9.30, most weeks there is a struggle to get one meeting within the curfew, let alone 2 meetings.

Wasn't it New Holland that did not pay the sponsorship

They all have a place in promoting a business, but by no means are they individually the only way. If I have a new product, I use Facebook in the knowledge it is only going to my friends on Facebook in the hope they will also share with their friends. It has had a modicum of success, word of mouth when you are a local business is the most successful, especially if you provide a service.

Most youngsters I know use Instagram and snapchat, Facebook has become an oldies format, but by using Facebook you are only preaching to those who have befriended you on Facebook. How does Facebook reach the out to the public at large in this scenario

Just been talking to my music tutor about the use of Facebook as a promotional tool, he described as throwing a pebble into an ocean, where it quickly sank to the bottom with all the other pebbles. It has a place, but in the grand scale of promoting a very small place.

I am not saying that folk should not volunteer, but, if the club is dependent on volunteers, it is not totally viable in the 1st place. Would it be fair then that volunteers should have much more input into how it's operated, as it is those volunteers that secure the life of the sport and are propping something that would otherwise be unviable.

That old chestnut is always thrown back, it's a bit like saying Berwick track is the wrong the shape, or, if you complain about track prep, why don't you volunteer if you know better. It is supposed to be a professional set up, for that you DO NOT NEED volunteers, it becomes a bonus if you get them, but it should run without them

We already have the dry ones, wet displacement tyre need to be developed, probably adapting motorcross/ enduro tyres

Never quite understand why in the UK speedway is off because of rain. Two sets of tyres for wet or dry conditions, and just get on with it

Tosh, they are running a business, the main jobs should be done by the owners and paid staff.. No business should be run on volunteers, however, turn it into a Trust with no ownership, with theTrust running it, then there is scope for volunteers

If you mean by a shower Thunderstorms at 15.00...1700....and 1900 Then showers it is

I believe in PR and promoting the product. BUT The article is in my opinion of course, is 'OVER EGGING THE PUDDING'

Thank you, much appreciated Taffy

Anyone got the scores, as was not on updates. Thanks

Must be filling the strawberries this morning.
