39-51, looking forward to it

Little shout out to Leon, Jye and Scott Nicholls regarding how great they were with my 5 year old relation post meeting. His first time at speedway and he was absolutely thrilled tjhaat they took the time to engage with him and take photos, particularly Scott who invited him onto his bike. Great stuff

Not that my story matters but this'll be the first meeting I've not attended by choice in well over a decade. £32 bar. Jeezy peeps man. I get the use it or lose it arguement some may use but cmon...

Aye, that will be the reason. I can understand why they do it, but many canny justify paying entry for it.

Sare clemmies

Why would anyone feel the need to have a "Straight Pride"? really sad "what about me" garbage ..

Perhaps its a celebration of that legally being the case in this country and to pressure other countries into the same thing?

Hopefully Berwick aren’t discouraged from doing this in future after last night, as they really aught to make streaming the new normal (geo blocked of course). Many lessons to be learnt. I think the producer may have over thought it, the amount of camera changes were quite distracting. Less is more? Never gonna be a BT standard production so I wouldn’t even try from that aspect.

Thankfully moving to the English pyramid was never up for consideration. aye the town is in dire need of it too, hopefully the plans come to fruition unlike the previous regimes new stadium aspirations.

A lot of Northern non league clubs pay more than Berwick, despite crowds not being to dissimilar, would still be hard attracting players. Only plus side would be banking on better Scottish players wanting to travel down to Berwick to hopefully “be seen” in an English league. I believe any grants would be for the stadium and surrounding community facilities at Shielfield rather than to BRFC itself, hence the proposed Berwick Sports Foundation which would take over the lease of Shielfield with BRFC SC (SC) distancing themselves from it to gain eligibility for funding.

Yep, I know, i'm one of them.

The Bandits will have a seat at the table on the board for the proposed "Berwick Sports Foundation" which I believe will operate Shielfield Park rather than current leaseholders BRFC SC in order to be eligible for government funding, if all goes to plan.

Seconded.

Aye, hit the ground pretty hard on his left shoulder. Couldn't do anything about it. Track pretty crap onBoxing Day so I'm told at Kurri Kurri, bad again today. Hardly surprising with the ridiculous heat. Hopefully the former happens, very important AGM. If JB gets ousted i'd be shocked if that stops the track changes, regardless of Chairmanship at BRFC, they need the Speedway to thrive now more than ever.

Great that this is finally happening, shame that its taken Berwick Rangers to fall apart at the seems to agree to it. Can only be a good thing, lets hope racing improves enough to encourage the return of lapsed fans.
