We used to have a good name in Czech, but in recent years the Czech riders with the exception of Matej Kus have not been treated respectfully at Berwick, the nail in the coffin was Hynek Sticheur. However every Czech I know, think the fans at Berwick are fantastic, it shows when we visit CZ -

If he did , they are still second hand engines, does not matter who owned them Cannot see Czechs signing for Berwick, Berwick does not have a good name over there at the moment. Would need a good PR team to go over and convince them otherwise, and a large wallet. Got to agree, the club has talked it's ability to change up, and have delivered with the infrastructure so far. We have had such a bad track for the last 6 to 8 years, and is now massively improved, and am sure it's development is on going. If the management has skills to improve on the team side, they need to put it together and act now, they have "talked the talk", now lets see them "walk the walk" Sadly, I thought the team didn't have structure from the beginning, but was hoping to be proved wrong, nearly every rider had an "IF" against them. -

Interesting you have dropped The Gapp, probably been the most consistant, doing his job and getting better -

TJ is water under the bridge, what happened has happened. I suppose the question is where do we go from here, easy to say drop riders, what do you replace them with. Looking at what is available would end up with a team much the same as we have now. The talent is already signed, and in general only journeymen left, fine to use if you have injuries. -

From the horses mouth, that is what he told me, I have no reason to dispute what he said. Not from TJ though Sarah, as said I was talking sponsorship with him -

We have only one league match against the team that is probably going to win the league, so too early. However when decisions need to be made, make them, we have had 8 years of dithering when decisions needed to be made, that must not continue. -

Place the weak links on notice, give them the chance to sort themselves out, then consider the changes needed -

Sort of have to agree with you, Berwick's team was one I could not get my head together over, far too many if's about it. I was hoping my doubts would be proven wrong and all the if's went the positive way. it appears at the moment that they have gone the negative way. However it is early yet, and we have come up against 3 teams that will be in the top 4 so might look worse than it is, it certainly not a league winning team or a team in the qualifiers, based on their ability so far. -

Realistic, Berwick should do well at Sheffield, but rarely do
