Wood strengthens the Monarchs. Can't see the Tigers repeating their Cup victory. Need to try and keep it tight and hope for the bonus point.

Berwick v Edinburgh Sat 26 April
SharpenRake replied to Endeavour's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Obviously Edinburgh have done very well in signing Sweden's best pair to ride for them, who would have thought it? Perhaps Sweden have gone for up and coming riders rather than picking Jacob Thorssell or Oliver Berntzon or Kim Nilsson 🤔 -
Spot on as usual Paulco

See you still don't go and continue to post mince.

500 chairs???!!! If you are going to criticise at least get your facts right.

It's nice to read fans from other teams reminiscing about the good old days. Just to bring everyone up-to-date with Glasgow 2025, the team won the 1st leg of the Scottish Cup at Edinburgh on Friday, our nominated pair finished third in the Championship Pairs at Workington on Saturday and Chris and Kyle finished 1st and 2nd in the CRC at Scunthorpe today. Not a bad start for the class of 2025.

Edinburgh v Glasgow April 4th

Sadly we won't see Polis but on the other hand it makes Edinburgh stronger on the night and likely to win and allows headlines like 'Despite no Oscar performance, the Monarchs come up victorious thanks to Victor' -
Are you planning a monthly attack on the Speedway Star? For the record I think they do a very good job.
-
Glasgow supporters held a meet the riders event last week and started the season with another brilliant donation towards the cost of the new FIM air fence. Great work by all concerned.
-
Yep, the temporary signing of a no.7 speedway rider will be front page news. Don't understand your emoji 🙃
-
Presumably you'll be using a 'Fran and Anna' tribute act (for anyone south of the border - google them) to announce Edinburgh's final rider?
-
Neither do I ! Read my post again and just to emphasise. PTW wrote Cairns will be replacing 'me' . In other words PTW must think he is the Poole no.7 and he knows Cairns will replace him.
-
So now we know who the no.7 is
-
I have to say that Paul Starke did disappoint me. However I seem to recall that when he tried big blasts coming out of the 2nd bend he was inadvertently blocked by his team mate, lost momentum and thereafter couldn't make much of an impact in the race. His machinery/chains also let him down. When he did gate he was fine and with Poole being a gate and go track he should do OK against the less experienced reserves in opposition teams.

Berwick have had decent teams over the last couple of years. They unfortunately have suffered badly with injuries.
