  1. If you read comments in Star this week will Berwick bother running? Looks obvious that it is 'not sustainable' on crowd limits. Probably another half dozen doubts too eh? However, just like my own club Coventry there are always plenty clever dicks on forums who could step in and make a real go of speedway tracks all over the country, but maybe not with there own cash. What a real happy soul you are? Its the weekend and you have no speedway to moan about this week. PS With the right machinery I always thought Mr Blair would have made it. He looked good at Redcar in National League a year or two ago, but never did himself justice at the next level. If stories coming out of Midlands area are true you wont need to worry about Premier League racing in 2013 so you can watch Stoke and Liam Carr.
  2. Its in BSPA Site Fixs as provisional either Berwick home PCTFinal or Away Workington PL. Dont suppose given costs these days either club would mind if league fixture was never run!
  3. Genuine concerns all round as we read and hear. Suppose you could take it back to 6 man teams and cut costs with 39 point limit? You just wonder how many teams will be Premier League in 2013 and cant see it being 13?
  4. Heat 5 at Redcar I understand was a stonewall win for Berwick until Dyer fell last lap and Morris stopped. Poor from updates then! Think you will find rules dont allow any team changes after mid September?
  5. Who are Berwick and Glasgow using Sunday anyone? Thats assuming Berwick are at Glasgow as BSPA fixtures say it is ashfield Classic Sunday 30th September??
  6. Real worry down my way and that includes in Elite League is the long term future of Speedway in this country. Is there a chance of our top clubs going into a Europa League and then we have a one off British League of maybe 16 clubs? You hear horrendous stories of finances falling and crowds dropping and I think clubs such as Workington and Glasgow are just the tip of iceberg. It will be very interesting to see what happens at this years Speedway AGM (not sure when on) as to who will be back in 2013!
  7. Yes seems so! According to Bandits web. Ricky Wells (ex Devils of course) Guests at 1 for Berwick.Sure he scored a lot of points a week or two back riding for Plymouth? Has anyone heard if Ben Barker is fit?
  8. Yes Think it is a must win meeting for Berwick given Plymouths win last night which puts them 3 points behind and they are home to Berwick next Friday.
  9. Whats wrong with that for goodness sake! Most tracks do it and its good to know how other meetings are going as long as the GP updates are left. Words fail me at times as some folk on these forums were at the end of a queue when the 'matter' was handed out!
  10. It appears that Svemo and BSPA have a signed agreement for Premier League which allows facilities for rider in Allsvenkan and Elite League play offs in Sweden. It may not be in rule book but it is there am informed. Please accept it is correct and move on.If not mistaken same happened at Sheffield last Thursday and that result has not changed.
  11. The rules it seems allow facilities for Swedish riders in League end season play offs not normal league matches though?
  12. Yes Micky has looked good for Berwick. Cant see how Updates (which look totally wrong) can give him 2 points in Heat 8 when it seems he crashed out? Surely Bellego was second??
  13. Well, my Glasgow mate tells me Nick Morris is riding for Berwick on Sunday so every chance he will be in on Saturday as well?
  14. To be fair there would be no certainty either Alden or Aspegren's teams would make play offs when they signed?
  15. Strange looking Berwick team for Thursday- taken from their website. Ashworth, Barrett, Aspegren and Alden all missing and Rider Replacement, Eklof, Aarnio and Vissing in!
  16. If Albin comes and races let us hope he proves as good as Covatti has been at Birmingham, but cant see Barnfield being an option at all.
  17. Yes Edinburgh deserved their win but Berwick would not have beaten Plymouth either on Saturday. Monarchs are a decent middle of table team who should be meat and 2 veg to Berwick at home.
  18. To be honest I normally enjoy my trips to Berwick as I often get football and speedway. Saturday night past was not one of those enjoyable trips. I was at Sheffield and saw a great Berwick performace, but v Edinburgh it was chronic, Alden and Dyer apart.No disrespect to Edinburgh who deserved to win but in all honesty they are no Somerset or Ipswich, they are an average run of the mill Premier League team who should have been blasted off the track! On that performance Berwick probably would have struggled to beat a National League team! One or two of them on Saturday need to take a good hard look at themselves.
  19. Also forSwedish League play offs you get facility it seems
  20. Whichever way is correct everyone gets RR? As for thread on here about Alden I dont think he has any choice as if I am not mistaken Swedish League play offs take preference over PL and a facility is available. Imagine if he rode for Berwick he would pick up ban in home country?
  21. At least the Irish presenter lad said he was a Speedway fan and mentioned Berwick Bandits and Glasgow Tigers and Speedway got two or three other mentions.
  22. That rule I understand does not affect a Guest for absent number 1?
  23. Agree about fans of my club Coventry but can I say Berwick fans are a Man Utd to Man City from last football season, beaten on goal difference only. When you have no more speedway (and it could always happen) then you can moan
  24. Colin Poole of Berwick was there. Sure he has a web if you do a google search?
  25. Correct Penchev yet some of them still find something to gripe about!
