Hopefully Bandits can pick up a win tonight against the Monarchs, main thing is we see a good safe meeting. After the meeting the Berwick Bandits Supporters Club will be making a presentation to Theo Pijper to help towards some recent bike repairs. Presentation will take place in the Black and Gold.
Monarchs Supporters Trust does a good job but they have 7 payment levels starting from £10 per month up to £100 per month. I know from involvement with Bandits 2012 Group how difficult it was just to get people to pay £10 per month.
Bandits will be looking for a home win to keep any playoff place alive. Glasgow without the services of Craig Cook call on Rory Schlein as a more than capable guest. Glasgow top 4 all capable of scoring points around Shielfield but Bandits probably stronger at reserve. Bandits to sneak it 46-44.
Meeting was on Saturday past despite England playing Sweden. If England were to play on Saturday it is a 3pm kickoff. Scunthorpe have announced that they are at Peterborough Friday, Berwick Saturday but meeting at Newcastle is postponed on Sunday.
Kevin Number 1 with a 6-85 average he would be a reserve at Scunthorpe on that average. We were basically a 3 man team last night with 4 of our riders scoring 12 between them. Heat 15 I like a lot of fans were expecting Dany & Jye to be in it.
As well as league points at stake there is also the Border Trophy up for grabs. Berwick have a little bit of a team shuffle with Kevin Doolan taking over the Number 1 spot from Spud. For the Comets who drew here in the Championship Shield match Rasmus Jensen drops down to reserve. On paper Comets look a more than useful team but Berwick have got into the habit of winning home meetings. Bandits to shade it 48-42.
