Meeting off.

Looks like Bridgers kit is quick enough, his problems look to be getting out of the starts, something I find surprising giving his experience in the old EL.

Lasse Bjerre guests in place of Paul Starke.

Bridger has a very lucrative sponsorship with Revolution Racing who provide all his racing kit, I`d be surprised if he would want to jeopardise that by swapping to GM engines as he would probably have to start funding his own racing.

As long as he is just cutting the grass I`m happy with that. Agree, I still like the look of the Berwick team, if they ride to their potential, sadly some aren`t.

It will be a home win but I'm hoping after an encouraging performance last night Berwick will at least make thing uncomfortable for the Tigers.

Berwick`s original choice at No7 was Luke Chessell, sadly he chose not to take his position in the team. By then virtually all the other clubs had signed their No7`s leaving Berwick a limited choice. That said Ryan Blacklock has let nobody down with his efforts and hopefully he will be back soon.

Seems Mr Barrie is still trying to convince us that he needs telling what goes on on social media, when we all know that horse bolted many moons ago.

I posted yesterday I hoped for good racing, close score and value for money, we certainly had that last night. I find it amazing to hear therefore there may some not going back as if thats the level of speedway we will see each week I will be back week in week out, and the meeting was run at a good pace, so well done to all. With 5Hts to go it was looking likely that Berwick would pull off a shock win, sadly for them Glasgow pulled off an amazing comeback lead by their top three who by that stage were all winning races. Summers certainly put to bed the argument that he cant win races at Berwick and his overtake of Vissing in Ht11 got any comeback off to a flying start. So credit to Glasgow on their win. Losing the meeting from a winning position will be a sore one for the Berwick management but when your No1 doesn't win a race all night and your carrying a rider, the rest of the team have a job on to win a meeting. Bridger does seem quick enough but isn't making starts and you cant give the Glasgow heat leaders a head start. Carr is struggling, maybe last night he was still suffering from his crash at Edinburgh which affected his score, but as has already been mentioned we cant carry passengers, so there may be a decision looming should his scoring continue. Same could be said for Bridger as in tight meetings your looking for your top three, and No1 especially, to win races and his inclusion in Ht15 was baffling as there was nothing to suggest he was likely to go out and win a race that would've given Berwick a draw at least.

Berwick seem produce their best for when their up against it, as they are tonight, I just hope for good racing, close score and value for money.

Big night for Gappmaier with a potential seven rides.

Agreed, looks like both Berge and Carr will be there tonight and you can bet this is one meeting where young Berge will be wanting to do well in.

Bright and breezy start to this Saturday. Hopefully tonight we see Berwickproduce the kind of that I believe this team is capable of, do that and I see a home win, continue with current for and it may get untidy leaving more questions for the Berwick promotion. I wouldn't expect any team manager to be happy after the performance last said, hopefully the things he has to say to his riders before tonight will have the desired results.

Carr scored zero, so did fail to trouble the scorers, if the terminology I used is slightly to harsh then I accept that. Please don't think I am putting Berwick's failure to win meetings so far this season all down to Liam, far from it, we have a No1 who is failing to win races on a regular bases, a No5 who's drop in form of late is alarming and at least one other rider under performing. Hopefully for Liam his new equipment will do the trick and we will see the kind of scoring we saw towards the end of last season.

Reported as sore today so should be good to go for Monday.

So Berwick get the annual humping at Armadale, no surprise there, the Carr to No4 experiment failed miserably with him failing to trouble the scorers, there must now be question marks over his place in the team. All credit to any Berwick fan for making the trip up tonight.

Josh Bates missed last Thursday`s meeting as his partner went into Labour, happily she gave birth to a boy, so surely Bates will take his place in the Sheffield team this Sunday.

To be fair to Berwick, its not like we have any chance of getting something out of this meeting so the choice of guest rider at No7 is not going to make much of a difference. Good luck to Lawler, I hope he enjoys his night riding for us.

Thank you. Why, one of his riders gets a chance of free practice at a track where Glasgow will be targeting an away win.

While there are many fixtures going on today, so the chances of getting an alternative riders are lower, could Berwick not use Kyle Bickley, Jack Smith or Danny Ayres. No disrespect to young Lawler but he is really ready to come into this level of racing and be compeditive.

Glasgow will provide tough opposition, but this is a must must win for Berwick, failure to do so will make team changes inevitable surely.

Like most other posters I forecast a big home win, from a Berwick point of view I just hope there is some positives, Carr returns to some kind of form, Bridger wins races, just something ..........anything.

Like the look of this team, maybe though you`d still have the problem with Gappmaier at two that you do with Carr. Seems Berge isn't quite as happy at Berwick as he thought he might be so for him to leave the team would make sense for club and rider and Carr is weak at two, though I think the big problems for him are machine related, nevertheless he isn't, and doesn't look like scoring the points he should be so I agree about dropping him. Bellego being a club asset must be under consideration, though he has a full diary now so to add Berwick`s fixtures could prove a problem especially where there are clashes as I`m guessing the clubs he has now would take precedent over Berwick`s fixtures.

You mean do they have the necessary to drop the weak links, or will there be a sacrificial lamb who pays for anothers inefficiencies.
