Couple of Berwick riders riding in meetings today, Kevin Doolan has ridden in Jon Armstrong`s Testimonial meeting at Mildenhall. He finished the qualifying races with 12pts which put him into the semi final where he finished second, that put him in the Final, where he finished fourth. The meeting was won by Rory Schlein who was undefeated all afternoon. Nikolaj Busj Jacobsen rides in tonight's meeting at Brough Park in the Newcastle v Redcar clash where he guests for the injured Lewis Rose. And for those who missed it congratulations to Leon Flint on recording a paid five ride maximum for his club, Birmingham, in their meeting at Stoke last night.

Berwick vs Newcastle 31/03/18 1st Leg TTT
screm replied to Bandits4eva's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Very few people taking their places at Shielfield last night would have predicted what was about to happen, but take nothing away from Newcastle they thoroughly deserved their win and had Berwick not finally got into some kind of form in the later races Newcastle`s win might've been all the more convincing. Gating was vital last night and the away team were far better in virtually every race and with track conditions ultra slick passing was always going to be difficult. Hopefully for Berwick this performance was a one off, and it might be a blessing that it was in a non league match that saw such a poor night for normally reliable riders. I guess we will get some answers next week against a handy looking Lakeside team. Thank you and well done to Dick Barrie on a perfect tribute to the late Ivan Mauger and letting us remember Berwick supporter Martin Hastings. -

HELLO, meeting tonight. Weather has been lovely the last few days, and is fine again today, so hopefully we will get more of the same kind of entertainment as last week. Berwick are back to full strength with the return of Jye Etheridge while Newcastle are using good old R/R for the injured Lewis Rose while Glasgow`s Lewis Kerr comes into to guest for Stuart Robson who pick up a hand injury at Redcar last Thursday. -

More 15.55pm update. We are waiting for confirmation from the police regarding the re-opening of the roads around the Raceway. This is due around 4.30pm. We will update as soon as we hear. This was taken from the Lakeside twitter page, hopefully things will get the all clear very soon. -
Shocked and saddened to read this, seeing him at Berwick was all to brief and all to rare but he was a thoroughly decent guy. RIP Martin.

Legend, superstar Champion. RIP Ivan.

Peterborough v Redcar C Sunday 15th April
screm replied to bigcatdiary's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
There should be enough people in the Redcar side of the pits to stop this happening, very poor IMO. As for Barker, nothing surprises me with Ben, you just have to laugh at him. -

Berwick v Glasgow 14/4

Meetings between these two rarely disappoint and this was another cracker watched by a huge crowd with plenty of travelling support , from Ht1 that saw Doolan and Worrall passing and re-passing right up to Ht15 that saw a typically spectacular ride from Chris Harris there was value for money in every race. Big crowd, great racing, close score, value for money and a meeting done and dusted in good time, more of the same each week please, the speedway season has started. -
Berwick v Glasgow 14/4
screm replied to allthegearbutnaeidea's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Hopefully not the one from last nights meeting, a single point from your No1 is no good at any time and I`m sure he will be disappointed with his score, especially on a track he knew well. He is capable of much better, lets hope Aaron gets back to the big points tonight. -

Untidy crash, I`d be amazed if he hasnt broken a collarbone.

Looks like Workington will be in for a change with the news that Mason Campton has broken his wrist while having a practice at Leicester.

Not when the football team are at home, though I think it was mentioned earlier that the corners were both covered for this meeting. -

Two wise owls here, not like this fool who went to a meeting where all sense would tell you it wasn't going to be on, Stroke of good fortune in some ways as even with the few cars there was in the car park it was turning to mud, a normal sized car park would surely have seen cars stuck in the mud. -

And forecast to stay that way for some time yet, even if it does go ahead its hardly likely to be a classic in these conditions and poor weather will affect the crowd.
