  1. Make it 10 seasons, Edinburgh produce top results and riders we produce great burgers....
  2. You need seven contributing riders right off your carrying the two reserves. Dollan isn't going to pull up any trees, which will put a lot more pressure on Wethers, Vissing and Bellego who I think collectively will average about the same or slightly more than there starting CMA's Seb Alden at no1? When will Berwick fans learn? Yes he will win you races by half a straight against Plymouth or a Sheffield team being fronted by Ricky Wells. But anyone with half a braincell knows. Inconsistancy has followed Seb Alden all throughout his career he has a 7.5 average for a reason.
  3. Some good points raised.... Speedway is targeted at the average punter who attends a meeting. What I've found at the track I attend mostly, while there are some very intelligent people who are in the know. A lot of fans just go for a night out or go because there friends. Some "fans" that go to Berwick haven't got a clue about the Sport or the bigger picture. As long as they see a home win and 15 heats failing that there is uproar
  4. Bikes weres lightning once he ironed out the creases.... Talented boy injuries curtailed 2010 for the bandits
  5. If you were on the dole, and the opportunity of working came about you would take it? Rempala was dropped by Tarnow about 6 weeks before we signed him because he was failing to score in meetings. Rest assured Catch Me if you Can had Mr Rempala been contributing to his team's overall score we would have never seen him at Berwick
  6. and you reckon he is gonna leave Poland his homeland to race for the Mighty World Champs The Berwickshire Bandits The only way a Pole will ride over here is either because (a) they have been dropped for being cackle or are so bad they cant even get a team place in the first place. I.e Michal Rajkowski or Sebastian Truminski Sure he would entertain at home matches, we had Lee Complin for 3 seasons. 7 riders who can score there averages would be a great start
  7. lol he or she seems to like Ulrich Ostergaard, He's a feasible signing for the Diamonds
  8. Simon Stead is going to come to Newcastle because?
  9. Very good side I'd say. Suprised Aspegren's average is that high to be honest with you. He's signed for Rye House...
  10. Er gating is rather essential at Berwick and Speedway in general I'd say allen is more of a risk from than Howe going on there respective cmas
  11. Howe would be a good move, no doubt in my mind
  12. How would Berwick fans feel about Ben Barker leading the Bandits into 2014? The best visitor at Shiefield in 2013 for me, other than that thought Barker had a poor season maybe a move up north with the roar of the Bandits support could be a match made in heaven? Then again a Berwick fan once famously told me we weere hell bent on signing Gregorz Walasek... a funny bunch....
  13. Poland and Sweden run squad systems, so if your mince like Barret and Aspergren were you get dropped
  14. It's not a given Bellego will actually race many meetings.
  15. More meetings for Bellego, he's signed for a good club with a track I would consider along with Opole and Bydgoszcz as one of the best tracks in the world. Wethers did a good job all round, he's one of these blokes that I don't imagine will be short of offers and if he goes to a track he scores well on I think Matty would be an asset for that team. Berwick would need replace him with a solid 3rd Heat Leader, a few possibilities have been mentioned above. Berwick seem to have good options for the middle order this year. Maybe the way forward is to go with a very strong Top 5 and little at reserve.
  16. some appetising suggestions, I'm sure Mr English will have everything under control at the Newcastle Stadium
  17. Put both of there good points together and you have a fine blend, without going bust, winner
  18. Peter Waite though he had faults new how to spot a rider and in doing this bringing them over to the club, he got consistant performances from them. Maybe with better financial packages from sponsors etc, he would have had more he got a good 10 years service from Makovsky and Rymel in two of his last 3 years as a Bandit under PW averaged 9 points ish. Pietraszko as well, I'm convinced had he stuck with Speedway he would have gone on to bigger things. Realistically there isn't a PW among the promotion, who knows the foreign market. While Waite excelled at Scouting talent bringing in forgotten journeyman making them tick. Our talents seem to be putting on big meetings (which the club did very well). These riders are out there though a look in the Speedway Star or a browse of Speedway Results International section could very well open unseen gems. In ideal world we would have a No1 and two reserves capable of interchanging with the main body. I do think you need to look at the club's history of performance in recent seasons too give of an idea of how we will perform in 2014. The resources we have available in terms of riders is not ideal. Bellego is a talent, Wethers is solid Carr/Starke at reserve is not going to scare anyone and we have no big hitters to carry us through in the later races. Then again we could really pull it out of the bag with a big signing (or something) and have a great season. Peter Waite was also a great motivator getting the best from his riders. Has Ian Rae done this? Ian said in the programme its important the boys are having a "good time". Yes, I am sure they enjoyed the season as much as they club's supporters did. Mr Anderson's tenure putting to one sides all the stadium work, has brought mid table finishes close home wins and usually going missing on away tracks. Nothing at present is suggesting 2014 will be any different.
  19. I'd take Kozza over Claus... step backwards
