  1. Is that how it works? I had in my head that it was only taken to heat 10 (or wherever you got a result) so you would get £8 off admission?
  2. He was doing ok there in the abandoned meeting. Think if the match had went on Berwick would have got something from the meeting (more than in the replay) as the reserves looked pretty dominant. Was also not the usual Ricky. With regards to the possible double header you should ask your promoter (mr Blobby). I think it was in the Evening news about it going to be a double header but with some clubs wanting the cut off date put back it made sense to put the Berwick match back a couple of weeks (no one wants to run a double header unless there are no other options).
  3. Sheffield won the pairs at Sheffield last year. Spud must be close to being in the lineup this year.
  4. Good performance from Busk which is more than can be said about his captain in heat 15.
  5. Should be. He also missed Berwick (due to family illness?).
  6. Speak nicely to Berwick. You could maybe borrow the covers, a better team manager and a team that is not much worse than yours (able to get 3 points from Edinburgh without them scoring a point) going on the plus and minus scoring.
  7. That's the one. Thanks for the info as others thought it was Adrian and I was convinced it was Claus. Cheers to Allan.
  8. Can anyone remember if Claus Vissing scored back to back home paid maximums (think 2014)? Had a discussion and I thought he did it in a double header with Newcastle/ Someone else because I think David Bellego was only beat once in the two matches as well. Know Ricky Ashworth scored a max at Scunny and a max at home to Newcastle in his first two matches for us in 2012.
  9. Enjoyed watching the Berwick team improve during the season. Good to see the riders getting exposed to team speedway at an early age.
  10. No probem with Cook but do you have any idea why Workington's top rider isn't in the field? It must be on the current green sheet averages as at present Aaron is above Kevin Doolan. If he has chose to miss the meeting along with the fours then I don't think he should be allowed to ride in our league next season.
  11. I thought when Dennis was going through the list it wasn't official it was just how it stood at that particular time. Thanks for the info.
  12. Has the riders championship line-up been decided yet or will it be decided on the September averages? I see on the rolling averages up to last night Aaron is top by 0.04. If the September averages are used then it could be all to race for tonight between the top two to represent the Bandits at Sheffield.
  13. If you take Jake Allan's home average (+5%) you could fit any Berwick rider in and he is 5th in your averages. I think that's probably the reason Berwick has strong reserves as Scunny has a lot more top end strength and Berwick has a lot stronger reserves (Berwick has just over 2 points between 1-7 and Scunny has over 6.5 points).
  14. It said something about the last regular league meeting of the season on Facebook. Maybe the promotion are looking to see if we have a chance of making the playoffs before deciding if there are any more meetings?
  15. Not sure if he would. He didn't race enough meetings to alter his average and with Rye meetings being removed he would sign on his converted average as in theory he didn't race any meetings in the top flight. Most matches he raced in were as a temp signing for Stuart Robson or as a guest The others had averages and have signed on the last average they had (all except Kasprzak are lower than what they started the season on presumably to make it easier to sign the riders).
  16. Good to see a Berwick rider helping a team destroy a team who decided to drop a Berwick rider.
  17. £1293.31 on website. Well done to Berwick and Edinburgh fans.
  18. Probably. Sign a rider on a 3, his average goes up 1.23 before he rides a meeting and then bring in a 4 point rider (only in speedway).
  19. The Berwick number 1 would be a second string at Edinburgh. Heat 1 he was right on Victor's tail for most of the race, heard no. 3 bike faulty in heat 3 (about when Josh passed him), no5 up with Josh most of the race until going into the pits on last bend, heat 13 were racing each other instead of worrying about catching the Edinburgh riders. Ricky is a lot better rider than getting beat by a big margin (he could ride the same line as he did when he was in front). Did you think there was a lot of difference in the track at Berwick at the start of the season when it was rained off and the track at Edinburgh on Friday night before the start? Good luck for the rest of the season if Berwick don't make the playoffs.
  20. Possibly or people having a laugh with regards people being called real fans. How have you enjoyed the last 4 or 5 Berwick home matches? I think both and don't know to much regarding the Edinburgh trust except that it's separate from the speedway and they donate money to the Edinburgh promotion every month.
  21. Victor in heat 1 and Theo in heat 2 seemed to cope ok with gate 1 so it couldn't be horrific? I seen a good few Monarchs gate and go into bend 1 in leading positions and come out bend 2 behind the Bandits (that's where the Monarchs probably lost the meeting with it happening various times).
  22. Last week people were on about how good Rene was by riding and how bad Claus was by not. At least Claus didn't make Glasgow race with a conference league rider. That's at least twice Workington have been left short handed by them racing in Poland (the fours). Surely the SCB can make a stand regarding Dan. I remember a few years ago David Bellego was suspended by his federation when he was going to race for Berwick instead of France. They should be able to say the same to Poland (he races in Britain or we suspend his licence).
  23. I thought I saw in an Edinburgh report that Aaron was at 5 at Berwick. Wasn't paying a lot of attention so will need to recheck.
