Can we take it you will be putting yourself forward to do the Berwick meeting tomorrow night.

Always happy to help.

Easier to get to maybe,but if speedway GP struggles to half fill the stadium they use now,it will be the same for the Olympic Stadium.

Thet can announce updates from Workington,Rye House,Leicester,Stoke,or anywherelse for that matter,but please think of those who are forgoing the GP to support speedway at Berwick.....it really isnt to much to ask is it.

Do what I do,record the GP and get along to Shielfield,must admit the GPs are getting more appealing,then of course you run the risk of our centre green presenter dropping the odd hint as to how the GP is going.

Thought Newcastle might have done a bit better at Sheffield last night,I mean just about everybody wins there these days. Bit of a must win meeting for play-off chasing Newcastle,they are well capable of winning of course,but Im hoping that the Berwick team will want to show they are not as bad as they were at Redcar,and of course we have Alden and Apegren back in the team.

Embarrassing performance from Berwick,looking at the PL table think god for Plymouth.

Go on then Im up for that,you start.

But our recent meetings have been gate and go,whether thats by luck or design. Thank the Lord Im not alone.

Yes your right,but its a more general point,not just Berwick,this kind of thind affects teams over here more and more,Im told its the modern way,just the modern though,not necessarily the right way.

Be careful for what you wish for. It is,but in this case its not of Berwicks making,you sign riders that have European committments its likely this kind of thing will happen at some stage.To be fair though our team for Redcar is as strong and maybe stronger than it wouldve been had our normal 1-7 been there.

Not sure how many times you`ve been in recent weeks but Shielfield has been very much gate and go,with the very odd decent race,shame as when its prepared to allow passing it can give us fans fantastic entertaining meetings. Newcastle scored 39pts in the Tyne/Tweed Trophy,and 43pts in the LC,so there has been improvement.IMO though out visitors this saturday will have to improve further if they are to win,they are capable of that though,as their away wins this season have proved.As has been said much will depend on choice of guest,I hope they wont go with r/r at no1,and Im sure we will find out in an hour or two who our guest is. Dont think it will be Matej Kus.

Id put Adam Roynon down as the best rider,right up to his injury the other night,cant come up with a worse rider than Sitera,IMO he shouldve been doing far better than he has.

Giving the amount of review posts on this meeting,can we take it that it wasnt excatly a classic.

Covatti at least has some racing experience in Italy,that at least is some kind of gage as to his capabilities,Albin is a gamble,and a big one IMO.I hope it comes off for Berwick,but it might be an alternative that instead of investing in Albin they consider buying Dyer from Dudley,he at least has racing experience over here.

Berwick were poor,but I think your being a bit harsh on Edinburgh.They have every chance of making a play-off place and fully deserved their win.As you say apart from Alden and to a lesser extent Dyer,the rest had poor nights and a two man team doesnt win meetings.

A KOC match at Berwick earlier in the season springs to mind.

Maybe,just maybe Mr Louis does indeed know what he`s doing.

Doesnt make any difference to you,your paying £20.

Fair enough,compared to other PL clubs they are about average,it bound to be difficult to set a price low enough to attract people through the gate,but not low enough where the promotion are losing money hand over fist. Also from reading last nights programme it looks as though we may be looking for a new team sponsor for next season.

They are,dont think there is to much wrong in the admission prices as they were,£14-50 seems pretty fair to me,though theres no doubt people are taking advantage of the drop in prices.

It is,over the last couple of home meetings and hopefully next week against Newcastle,less certainly does mean more.

Apart from a few 2nd halves and our GP Qualifier,Albin has no experience overseas,infact he has very little experience in racing speedway full-stop.

Maybe not significantly bigger certainly a healthy crowd,the seats that are on the pits side of the tunnell are never that well populated most meetings,but last night there was quite a few fans there,infact the main grandstand was well populated throughout. Look to me that the lower priced certainly brought a few extra out,hopefully that will happen for Glasgow in their low price meeting today.

Prices for next weeks meeting with Newcastle will be held to where they were last night,hopefully the promotion will be rewarded to another decent crowd.
