Another absolutely woeful night on track for Berwick, I feel sorry for anyone daft enough to pay money to watch that team.

Not in their interests to tell the fans if there isnt going to be a full strength team, just keep quiet and then spring it on them come 7pm once they’ve taken their money, disgusting really but what importance to the fans hold to the promoters in this country eh. By the way alot of them talk you’d think they are doing the fans a favour running a team.

Another embarrassing afternoon in store for Cook if he decides to ride in this.

Think that result just emphasises whats wrong with Berwick. A lackadaisical effort when they really needed to turn up. That Berwick team has riders that have been going to Armadale for years so to go and perform like that is extremely poor. If this had been an Edinburgh side that performed like that I’m sure their promotion would have got torn into them, the Berwick lot probs took them down the pub for a laugh and carry on whilst writing the match preview for saturday night telling everyone how the Bandits are ready to thrill the fans with every turn of the wheel. Bring it on.

I didnt say they could afford Morris. I said we were told Morris had been replaced like for like.

Might try and bring Edberg back he’s a good club man likes a laugh and a giggle.

I’m sure hes a great lad and hes riding to his true potential and all that but how pathetic is Summers as a no1? Last 3 nights for example hasnt turned up at all. And they said Morris was replaced like for like lol.

This will no doubt have been covered already in the many pages of this thread, but why is Chris Holder riding for Torun but not Poole? I know the reasons given when Kildemand came in was that CH had personal issues to sort, but surely if hes riding for Torun he should be for Poole?

Better than just being a sheep and going because you’ve done it for years and you dont actually have an opinion of your own. They could put 7 teletubbies out on track for the Bandits on a saturday night and you’d say it was a quality meeting.

Suppose thats the difference isnt it, you go for a night out and to enjoy the party atmosphere, I enjoy watching good speedway thats competitive and taken seriously. Each to their own I suppose.

I think the fans should just be excited by what a top team the Bandits have assembled and really be hopeful of a push for the title this coming season. With passing galore and a real carnival atmosphere I’m sure theres never been a better time to get to Shielfield and support the club. For anyone thats had enough already, Poland starts very shortly

This is the worst PL team since Mildenhall in 2008 in my opinion. Will there be a reduction in the admission price for the Newcastle fans that reflects what a poor team they have? I understand they clearly have to cut their cloth but when you look at that side I cant help but wonder why they are bothering and why they didnt just drop into the conference for a season and try and bring on some talent before stepping up again when able.

Kings Lynn must be aiming to come bottom it would appear. Lambert clearly doesnt want to be there, then you sign proctor who isnt even very good in the weakest PL we have seen for years. Feel for the fans.

Sounds like Workington are trying to make a fist of things with Berwick for the wooden spoon. What a woeful signing Klindt is on that average and Campton never gets any better.

To be honest I think the fans are just as much to blame as the promotion because they are the ones that condone this lack of ambition by paying to watch it week in week out and thats what pays for the shambles that is put before them. People are moaning but will still be there come March/April to watch the assault on bottom of the table commence.

Why dont they try and get Jade the blade Mudgeway and Dawid Stachyra back as well? Both absolutely rubbish but no doubt great blokes. In Stachyras case he cant even speak English but the Berwick fans arent concerned about that, if youre in the team regardless of ability youre a great bloke seemingly, judged by the Facebook response to Doolans re-signing. Sigh.

You should be on the promotion, another team you've came up with that would be bottom again.

Steady, that isnt towing the line, Crescent girl will be on soon to give you wrong.

Doolan and Howe later this evening, another inspiring season beckons. Glad I dont go anymore, feel sorry for those who still do.

Realistically the only person I see left now who could be a number 1 is Bellego but I know there is potentially some issue with him not being allowed to ride Championship. Other than that they are going to have to have a strength in depth approach but also try and get those guys who can improve. The 2 guys who are in any Berwick team Doolan and Howe, can anyone honestly sit there and say they will improve their starting average? Not sure on average but I would take Ryan Douglas over those 2. Its going to be interesting, at least we got Mr Barrie to post a rosie picture for us no matter what happens ayy

Absolutely, cant stand the cretin. If he never rode over here again it would be too soon for me.

Cant see many no 1's left now Morris and Lawson have gone to Lakeside. Unless they get body builder/hairdresser/personal trainer Lewis Bridger back and he can lead the lads from the back.

What planet do some of these morons come from. Sedgmen is rubbish what makes him think hes deserving of a 5k signing on fee.

In theory you are correct. I think now though given the professionalism of the sport in this country, which half decent foreigner would come here and be committed to it? Or would they just come and go through the motions on sub standard bikes? IE Berge? Sadly, I think Berwick will be picking from the whats left pile and be in for another season of struggle. I'm sure Crescent Girl will be on to tell the fans they should just be pleased with that though.

At least Berwick have Summers to look forward to at no1 with the ever improving Kev to back him up
