Winning is the aim of the game I'd be pretty disappointed if they didn't try anything to win in a grand final Not that my team will ever make it to a grand final to worry about things like this Cracking meeting shame the Rebels couldn't do it and end the Monarch monopoly it's a bitter pill to swallow watching them win but they do know how to put a team together.

As much as I'd like to see us progress from this group I can't see anyone other than the Monarchs getting through with two big home wins and a win at Worky they could even win at Shielfield if we continue our stuttering form in the middle heats. I don't think Jensen will be much of a miss although he was our best rider at Armadale on our last visit as he seems to have been very hot and cold recently either untouchable or can't get near anyone whether that's down to injuries or not I do not know but I think we have adequate cover for him.

Firstly great news about Matty and Aaron. Berwick is what it is and its not going to change and I personally would much rather watch a meeting like last night with plenty of ups and downs and that went down to the last race even though passing was limited than go to Armadale and watch the Monarchs beat everyone by 30. There is more passing at Armadale but I think it is due to away riders making mistakes as there are few riders other than the Monarchs who go well round there where as most of the riders in our league can go well round Berwick but if I was a Monarchs fan I wouldn't complain about them winning by 30 every week its just not that interesting from a neutrals point of view.

Once again one step forward two steps back with this promotion Liam has been poor this season which is understandable it's a big step up from Buxton and he has struggled but to replace him with Alex just does not make any sense a fresh face would have been nice granted theres not much out there but this is a step backward in my view.

Kevin and Matej are both underperforming the difference is Kevin will start scoring points I think when Claus goes to number one. Kevin has proved time and time again he is good enough at this level and this is just a poor start for him, Matej on the other hand has been like this for 3 seasons at Redcar and so far this season I don't see any improvement he hasn't scored more that 7 but has only failed to win a race at Edinburgh inconsistent at the very least. Been very impressed with the other boys especially Stormy and Claus. I think we will win on saturday I'll go 48-42.

Meeting was won and lost in the reserves with heat 12 being a perfect example Sedgmens never went well round Shielfield but did his job and Steve Worrall looked like a heat leader Kus was typical Matej Kus looks good when in the points but when it really mattered missed the start and looked disinterested and Jensen so far is the biggest disappointment he needs to start scoring fast if we are to do anything when it comes to the league Can't really fault the rest of the team Liam had an off night but that is to be expected as he's still learning League Cup is a write off now can't exactly see us going to Derwent Park and turning the Comets over.
