Berwick did have a No 1 in place at the start. His name is Sebastian Alden, but he has been required to start on an assessed average, which has not yet changed, unlike the other riders in the squad. To suggest Thomas Jorgensen should be released is idiocy.

Source?

Your post on the Berwick 2016 thread six minutes ago, numbnuts!

Or not. Henning Bager at #4.

Not if he's on a flight home to USA for a quick family-time visit!

You win.

But will Belle Vue be on?

Weather forecast for tomorrow looking bright enough. temperature could even be a few degrees better than the past few matches. Looking forward to seeing PLRC champ Ostergaard in black and gold, and to the first NJL contest of the season.

OK, I should say this information came directly from Redcar's team manager for tomorrow.

Er, despite the opening post by the (usually) ultra-knowledgeable Mr B, Redcar will have a full squad on parade. Jonas B Andersen is riding.

Scunny riding order confirmed as: 1 Josh Auty © 8.00 2 Carl Wilkinson 5.33 3 Alex Davies 6.26 4 Ryan Douglas 6.68 5 Zdenek Holub 7.00 6 Ashley Morris ® 4.53 7 Josh Bailey ® 3.00 NJL squads will be: Border Raiders 1 Kevin Whelan 2 Kieran Douglas 3 Corban Pavitt 4 Luke Harrison Dukes 1 Chris Hay 2 Joe Lawlor 3 Jordan Palin 4 Sam McGurk Referee (if that's the word) will be Barbara Horley

I rest my case.

Riders at PL clubs, changing only each month, will have a better, truer rolling average now than EL participants.

Discuss?

1) A week today. Cut off was 20th. 2) No 3) Depends on his having raced in a professional league or not. 5.00 if he hasn't.

Glasgow will be without Worrall. Lawson and Summers ineligible to take r/r for him.

Where's all this expectation of rain coming from? BBC and the usually-ultra-reliable XC Weather both say no significant precipitation after 6am....... Won't be too warm, tho....

Of course I should have. Many thanks for highlighting the slip. Information now on the correct thread.

Jorgensen sidelined for Saturday, replaced by Stuart Robson. Mellgren returns, situation with Wethers not yet known. Tigers at full strength. (from this afternoon's e-newsletter)

I'll have to correct you, I'm afraid. Engines running in pits from 6.30 -- bikes on track from 7pm. No engines after 9.30pm. There are several amendments, mostly slight relaxations concerning "special" events -- such as when Sky Sports visit -- but current restrictions are as above.

To explain: Strict planning conditions mean no bikes on track until 7pm. Traditionally, Berwick hold parade at 6.50, riders appear for Heat 1 at 7pm.

Newcastle coming with a full contingent? Don't make me chuckle.... GP Challenge qualifier at King's Lynn will have a couple of the Geezers involved for sure.

Perhaps Andre Compton having an average a full point and more higher than Anders Mellgren might blunt the enthusiasm of those seeking such a switch?

From this morning's e-newsletter: ANDERS OUT We regret to report that our popular Swede Anders Mellgren has been declared unfit to race for up to a month. As we are aware, Anders has been battling a knee injury, sustained in a fall at a training track in Cumbria the day before our opening match of the season at Redcar.. He has attempted to ride through a barrier of considerable pain since then, but a further knock this week has made the difficulty of trying to race impossible. He has returned to Sweden for medical treatment and assessment of the ligament damage.. The club has received a medical report and certificate from the clinic in Sweden, which has been lodged, duly translated, with the BSPA office at Rugby. While we await further medical reports, your Olympic Marquees Bandits will operate the rider-replacement facility in both League Cup matches this weekend. Anders's four programmed races may be taken by Theo Pijper, Matty Wethers and Liam Carr.
