Bates misses the meeting tonight due a shoulder injury which seems to be an ongoing thing.

Venue and meeting details to follow is the best we can do at the minute, it would be great to see the event return to Berwick again. A home track winner would go down very well.

Seems that Leon has been drawn to race in European Championship meeting at Divisov on the 26th.

Congratulations to Kyle Bickley on coming through his qualifier last night at Redcar for the British Under-21 Final.

How much trust you put in Wikipedia is up to you but here is the Wikipedia page for Berwick Rangers, it gives a capacity of 4099. If Berwick Speedway has to run with 25% capacity you have a crowd limit of just over a thousand, 50% of just over two thousand and so on. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berwick_Rangers_F.C.

Congratulations to everyone who has contributed, Newcastle have hit their target.

Hearing that Kent have postponed their next two meetings.

Giving the poster, I`m afraid yes.

Sad situation that Newcastle currently find themselves as the problems aren't down to Rob Grant in any way. Hopefully they find a way to see out the season and re-group over the winter. Hopefully.

If there`s a new rider they can have as much practice as they want on Saturday night.

Blackburn.

Meeting is live on EuroSport.

So current Covid restrictions are to stay in place for another, probably to the surprise of nobody. I wonder how many teams from the Championship or Premiership will be looking to put their season on hold until the middle of July.

I wouldn't be against that in our league, it would make team managers manage.

Amen to that, it makes no sense at all, but that shouldn't mean we are surprised.

Leon Flint scores 5+2 for Glasgow in their 47-43 defeat at Redcar. Now onto Peterborough and after that Kent.

You are correct but I`m not sure it takes to much sense, if you have a rising star program at least protect their average so it keeps the riders in the team.

Injury news regarding Josh Auty seems more positive than it could've been, after scans that have back all clear he will now sit out the next nine days due to a concussion.

Seems a no brainer for me. There must be a rider out there somewhere that can come into the team.

The difference being of course is that he flew into Germany so I am guessing their restrictions allow that. Just now our restrictions don't but as I`ve posted the Garcia situation needs sorting.

You get the feeling if the restrictions aren't lifted Poole could be the next club to put a hold on their season. https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/sport/19369198.ford-confirms-pirates-made-hefty-loss-first-home-meeting/?fbclid=IwAR3yTGIKGaKwZqlBI0bWlhbC8aoNVMeSwWp7LPh0dvvrUGoCdd5uUzP4Sk8

I see that, he was using bikes Nico Covatti who was also at the meeting it seems. The Garcia situation needs sorting as it seems he wont be anywhere near Berwick anytime soon.
