Totally agree, think its a massive shame whats happened to Alex, I was one of his biggest fans when he first came to Berwick, was agressive on track and could pass. If the injuries hes had have taken there toll then you cant blame the guy as they were horrendous. However if hes now scared, he needs to as you say bow out to avoid causing himself anymore harm or other riders. Thankyou Scott

Maybe the boys need an ex sporting pro like yourself to get in there and give a motivational speech Ed?

Why is he in the team then? Certainly cant be for his scoring capability.

Dont think theres any doubt something needs to happen with the track, it seems to go from as bald as the motorway to full of shale and dangerous, riders clearly not enjoying it, just see Cooks tweet and Edbergs facebook message. Its all well and good Scott (bigeddie) telling us its one of the best circuits in world speedway (lol) but its clearly not in the best place right now. I think the idea of Doc Bridgett having an input would be something to consider, makes a good job of Armadale and sure he does Wolves also.

Didnt go tonight but going by the updates only Bellego and perhaps Smith come out of tonight with any credit. Edberg needs to be replaced asap, seems a shadow of the rider he was pre injury. Feel sorry for Aspegren as I just dont think hes that suited to Berwicks track, obviously has talent, you dont pass Doyley at Somerset if your rubbish. Hopefully this result wont be overly detrimental on the crowds, I think the Monarchs are a very strong team.

Pity the bookies dont do betting on the PL, if they did I would have my life savings on Edinburgh, Berwick have no chance.

Just wait for all the arse lickers to come on though and tell us how hard the boys tried, then we'll almost certainly get the classic 'if you can do better have a go'. About time a winning mentality was installed somewhere within this club!

What a catastrophic collapse from Berwick. 15 points up after 7 heats and somehow manage to get beat. Absolutely pathetic from all concerned. Was the team manager just sitting with his feet up having a brew while this took place. Fair enough its the riders that go on track but I think the team manager needs to take some responsibility for this. Another season of mid table mediocracy looks on the cards for Berwick.

Cook 15 point max barring any mechanical hiccups.

Come on guys, Alex is a good lad, a great club man. It doesnt really matter whether hes any good or not because hes popular with the fans and his dad paid for the race suits. Pretty much irrelevent what he does on the track, I'm sure he'll be a permanent in the team this season. Go Alex. Your right hes been flying this season, just about won us the match at Glasgow with his invaluable contribution.

Your going to be in trouble saying that....

Bore off. Couldnt make it tonight so I wont pass comment on this evenings result. I'm sure the boys gave there all.

If you read the posts ( Assuming your able to read) you will notice I wasnt slagging the Berwick promotion.

Coming from the lump who thinks Shielfields one of the best tracks in world speedway.... Lol. All there is to say.

I support the club by paying my money to go and watch, this then entitles me to an opinion of which I am free to share on here if I so wish.

Obviously not able to spot sarcasm then......

Bore off. Same old tune from plumbs like you.

Shielfield classic, passing and re-passing, show the public why its one of the best tracks in world speedway

Wowza. When will clubs learn how useless he is.

Why the hell wasnt the pathetic Edberg replaced by Barret in ht 12? Poor management imo. Best wishes to Ricky on a speedy recovery. Poor result for Berwick not beating a there for the taking Glasgow.

Yes i know they will thats what I'm meaning, you cant use the fact its too fast as an excuse for poor racing because other big fast tracks produce great racing. The fundamental issue with Berwick imo is the track is far to narrow.

Peterborough? Kings Lynn? Most Polish tracks? Dont use the bigger track excuse as its garbage. The problem with Berwick is that its too narrow, dont think its a preperation problem as i believe its prepared well.

I agree with you, but negativity isnt allowed towards the club, everything is rosy at all times

No they dont, the track is perfect, faultless, one of the best in world speedway according to one member. You make your own judgements on that one.

Be careful what you say, the forum police dont like anything slightly negative to be said about the club.
