Don't believe everything you read, Screm. Especially your own posts.

Ha ha! My post on page 6 of this thread has a muckle big popular star on it. It is now official, what Big Eddie says is the gospel.

It is quite amusing now

The laddie is just showing himself up now, Sarah!

Nonsense, that was one of the best speedway meetings you'll see anywhere.

The most impressive thing is that we did this with r/r for the in-form Bellegeo. One's mind boggles at what the meeting would have been like with Va Va Voom riding. Bring on the Diamonds!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh. My faith in speedway has been promptly restored. That is one of the best meetings I have seen for a very long time. 18 passes. I noted them all. Kennett, as expected, was markedly at a different level to the rest of the riders. The way he shepherded Barrett round in heat 6 was effortless. His pass on Niemenen in heat 13 just superb. A greasy track in heat 1 robbed him of what would have been the easiest paid max in the history of the sport. Aspegren: decided to jump into life half way through the meeting and started to look like the classy rider that we saw last season. Much,much better, and he looked to be enjoying himself a lot more. Wethers: just superb, hope he is OK after pushing a bit too hard in heat 15. He was worth the admission fee on his own. Kozza: getting back to his very best, the way he reeled Karlsson in heat 4 was sensational. Starke: what can you say? He demolished the opposition number 1 who was on a tactical rider Barrett: again showing what a tremendous talent and prospect he is. Leicester came and gave a good account of themselves, and it is always a pleasure to see Kevin Doolan at Shielfield. They were just unfortunate that they came on an evening when the Bandits were red hot and razor sharp. If the Sky meeting is as good as this, I reckon they will ditch the Elite League in favour of the PL. Questions have been asked over the past few weeks and, my goodness, they were not half answered this evening.

Fair dos, back to speedway. I now only have 6.5 hours to wait until tapes-up"

More like a tableau vivant, Screm.

Deary me, it's only Friday morning, I've still got 31 hours to wait until tapes up. Wishing my life away!

Can't have been that simple to you though, Taffy.

Hee hee! Very good Another fantastic well-informed post. The Berwick threads are getting a lot better with some good input from people who obviously know about speedway. I don't know much and posts like the above help me understand and enjoy the sport a lot more. It's so much better than reading idiots posting tripe.

I can't see what more the Promotion can do to push the club forward. Changes way above what even the smartest of bottoms on here could suggest. The responsibility really is on us fans to reciprocate this huge effort and support, support, support. I'd hope to see Ricky and Alex back again, gutted for both of them, and hope Ricky recovers quickly. In the meantime, what a signing in Kennet! Paul Starke seems a very keen Brit, so he'll be getting the cheers from the 3rd bend to welcome him alongside Eddie. I'm still astounded 5 hours after reading the news! Welcome to the World Famous Shielfied Eddie and Paul! Very pleased

One of the most sensible posts I have ever read on here. Most excellent! I think the reason I think it was harsh is probably due to some of the criticism he was receiving. Just feels like kicking him when he's down. I would be that isn't the case though and that everything will be working out fine for him.

Wow! Once again, I didn't see that one coming. Gutted for Ricky, he has been brilliant for the club, hopefully we'll see him back again. It's also a bit hard on Alex, he's been unfairly singled out when really a missing number 1 is what has cost us. What a fantastic move by the promotion to address the team issues though. Once again, a spectacular effort. I really looking forward to Saturday now!

Reserves are going to be crucial now.

Better get the pinny on then Screm.

I agree, and even I have had a moan recently, but will be like you there every meeting I can. I've got a few guys coming along for the Sky meeting, hopefully that will draw a few new faces along.

It was a bit strong. Fair play to the person, they didn't hide behind some forum name either. I've not idea of what was behind it, and don't really want to know. There's a lot of frustration around Berwick at the moment, and we all need to pull together for the club. Even you and I Screm

It wasn't your usual forum moaning, it was very serious. I couldn't see any other business letting that one go. Very sad to see on a club's page.

What is juvenile? You mean the crap posted on here?

Yep, I didn't answer that one, it's because they are getting out of the gate first. I think Alex's point was it is quite difficult to come from behind at the moment. What a lot of people have missed are his other comments that he is always pushing to improve himself. Some people on here are going to get what they wished for, then realise it wasn't actually what they wanted after all...
