Workington V Scunthorpe 10/08/14 19:30 Hrs (pl)
screm replied to topaz325's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
All perfectly fair, but in this instance the question remains, how could the Workington possibly control all the incoming bad weather to miss Workington. Fair enough the weather forecast has had this rain in it for a few days now but at the time of agreeing this date with Scunthorpe nobody could've known the weather for the day of the meeting. -
Who Will Make The Playoffs ?
screm replied to Super Blue's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
There is a very real possibility, that with all these rain offs a team could qualify for a play-off place by the cut off date, yet at the end of the season, when all the PL have been run finish outside the top six, maybe even win the PL. -

Could the author of post 19 be pointed in the direction of this piece. -

Edinburgh will head to Somerset with their tail between their legs after Tuesday`s bashing from the Bandits. -
Patryk Dudek Tests Positive For Banned Substance
screm replied to lastword's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
At the end of the day, each and every athlete is responsible for what goes inside their body, and by athlete I don't just mean track and field, so Dudek is responsible for taking whatever he has been alleged to have taken, innocently or not. -

The Workington promotion can control many things, but even they cant control the weather, the whole of the northern half of the Country is feeling the after affects of a hurricane that has come over the Atlantic, Glasgow is off, Newcastle is off, it is no surprise that Workington is off. Have you ever considered just how much each one of these rain offs is costing the promotion. -

I think that fine remains un-paid, and while it does there is no chance of a return. -
My Top 10 Riders On Current Form
screm replied to barrow boy's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
No Berwick riders at all, even more surprising, maybe our team is just that a team, rather just than seven riders randomly chosen just because their averages fitted together just under the limit. -

Berwick V Sheffield 9th Aug 2014 @ 7pm
screm replied to screm's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Didn't put this in my earlier post but I think it is worth mentioning, well done to all concerned for the slickness of the meeting last night, well presented, well run, also thankfully there were no fallers. At least this poster is very grateful, especially as I had a 4am start at work this morning. -
Berwick Vs Edinburgh 12/8 Live On Sky

That might apply for some on the Berwick side, only some mind. -
Patryk Dudek Tests Positive For Banned Substance

Seems Dudek is quite confident that he will be back racing sooner rather than later. -
2014 European Speedway Championships
screm replied to DutchGrasstrack's topic in International World of Speedway
Unless your Greg Hancock, every rider reaches a peak then starts going down hill, this is what's happening to Gollobb. Its always been my ambition to see Gollobb in a competitive meeting, sadly it doesn't look like that will happen. Great rider, but maybe it is better he gives up on his racing career and leave us with so many great memories. -
Berwick Vs Edinburgh 12/8 Live On Sky

Giving the current form of both teams I think Sky, and the watching millions are going to be in for a treat on Tuesday evening. -
Berwick V Sheffield 9th Aug 2014 @ 7pm
screm replied to screm's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
If you like your racing close, and your scores even closer, this wasn't the meeting for you. Sheffield don't have their problems to find just lately with so many injuries, and sadly for them the guests they chose last night were largely ineffectual, add to that a reserve a bit out of his depth and you end up on the wrong end of a big defeat, hopefully for them their injuries clear up soon and they can get back to having a full team, if they can get Covatti scoring they will pick up points. Also, this is a different Berwick team these days, it is a team riding with confidence and one that is going to take a bit of stopping at home. Take nothing away from Berwick though, they were excellent, it was good to see Wethers back on form, and Edberg chipping in with some good points at reserve, clearly there will be stiffer challengers but you can only beat what's put in front of you and Berwick did just that. As ever Simon Stead was a joy to watch round Shielfield. -

Berwick V Sheffield 9th Aug 2014 @ 7pm
screm replied to screm's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Oh boy am I going to be in trouble. We had heavy rain late afternoon, early evening yesterday, that cleared away overnight. Forecast for today is good, cloudy in the morning but dry, afternoon much better with some sunshine. This forecast is not "out dated", or am I a "pessimist". -
Berwick V Sheffield 9th Aug 2014 @ 7pm
screm replied to screm's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Josh Bates has been ruled out for tonight, with Chris Widman coming in to take his place. Sheffield have signed Nico Covatti for the rest of the season in place of Ty Proctor, sadly he wont be making his debut tonight at Berwick, he will do that in Sheffield`s next home meeting. -

The battles between Simon Stead and our riders should be reason enough to get along to this meeting, alas after that I don't see to much that would stop Berwick from hitting a high score tomorrow night. -
Maybe he fancies a go at reserve, Wethers form hasn't been good in the last few weeks, though the way the team is built and the way Kus is going we can just about carry a rider. Come the play-offs though, if Berwick qualify, we will need all the team firing.

For the area where Berwick gets it supporters from, they have always had reasonable crowds. Obviously the city tracks have more competition from more attractions but Berwick have a decent number of loyal supporters who turn up week in week out.

Berwick 1 Claus Vissing 2 David Bellego 3 Steen Jensen 4 Mathew Wethers 5 Kevin Doolan 6 Alex Edberg 7 Matej Kus Sheffield 1 Simon Stead 2 R/R 3 Ben Wilson 4 Mason Campton 5 Justin Sedgeman 6 Taylor Poole 7 Chris Widman I have taken the Sheffield team from last nights meeting with Workington, I will fill in the blanks as they are confirmed. The Tigers went with R/R for Andre Compton at No2. and had guests at No`s 4 & 5. Things may change still further as Josh Bates was withdrawn from last night meeting. The good news is that after three weeks of crappy weather we are going to be blessed with a fine day tomorrow.

Speedway On The 5th Of August
screm replied to DutchGrasstrack's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Sadly you have only seen EL racing, you haven't managed to get to any PL meetings, which as we all know is far better than the rabble they call the EL. Hope your enjoying your speedway though. Agree about the presenter at Wolves, he is excellent. -
Redcar V Berwick (pl) August 7
screm replied to crescent girl's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Quite agree, if you looked at the post I was answering all would've become clear, its the rule that allows guests willy and indeed nilly that's the problem not what Berwick, or any other club do with it. Another good away win for Berwick, away wins are becoming quite a habit this season, we now have three home meetings in a week, all toughies, but three home win will go along win to securing a play-off place.
