Mr Blobby Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 So was there a bigger attendance last night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 So was there a bigger attendance last night? Certainly bigger than the crowd that saw the Sheffield meeting a couple of weeks ago,probably around the same as last week in our meeting with Workington.Whatever the attendance was Im sure the promotion wouldnt mind a few more turning up each week,and given Berwick won last night and the racing was better Id hope they do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good to hear that the racing was better when i was at the edinbrugh match i thought it was pretty rubbish but it's good to hear that things are improving. Hopefully you get more through the gates with weeks to come. Us northern clubs need to stick together during these difficult times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heedthebaw Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 Eddie Kennet is a Swindon rider, so this will take priority, Berwick is temprorary doubling down facility. Brilliant he is riding for Berwick as well mind. Taffy, why do you pass comment on something you so obviously no nothing about, read the rule book !

SCB Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 As an aside - are there any clashes with Swindon meetings and will the normal PL preference still apply? It has been mentioned that EL will get preference where the PL fixture is a change from the original fixture list. Does signing part way through the season count as a change and switch preference? Berwick fixtures take priority, PL always does (Why does PL take priority over NL and EL? Either riders double up or double down, why does PL get bets of both?) but I believe Berwick only have about half a dozen meetings during the time Ed has signed for and there are no Berwick/Swindon clashes.

Berwick fixtures take priority, Your right,but as I posted earlier,for the next few weeks there are no clashes.Should Kennetts stay with us become permanent till the end of the season then theres bound to be clashes where Berwicks fixture would take priority,of course I doubt if Swindon would go for that as Kennett is a big scorer for them,also,I think Kennett is doing the GP Quailiers this year so would miss Berwic home meetings to ride in those,though in those meetings Berwick would get a guest facility.

How long has Kennett signed for ,have you been told that information it's as clear as mud too me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screm Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 (edited) Wasnt it said he was only in for a month? Or have i made that up, may have been twitter where I read it. Its Swindon Speedway that have put out a statement saying they were helping Berwick out of their injury nightmare and the Kennett deal was only a short term arrangement. IN-FORM Eddie Kennett is set to get busier after Swindon agreed a short term deal with Berwick for him to double-up at Premier League level. The Bandits have suffered injury problems in the early stages of the season and have turned to Kennett and Dudley Heathens rider Paul Starke to bolster their side. Excalibur Communications Robins co-promoter Gary Patchett said: "We are very happy to allow Ed to double up to help Berwick through their injury crisis. "Extra meetings will be good for Ed and we don't foresee any fixture clashes." Edited May 12, 2013 by screm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's that and I read it as being for a month. Ill be honest I cannot remember where I saw it was only for a month and I'm doubting it now.

Berwick have been quick to point out that the door is not closed on Ricky Ashworth,so in a week or two,if Ashworth regains fitness he might just might come back into the team. You can be sure that a fit Ashworth will be an asset to any team,be it Berwick or somewhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crescent girl Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 Eddie didn't suggest there was any time limit on the deal when he spoke on the mike. With Ricky Ashworth's situation clouded by neurological doubts, there will be no question of any short-termism to the loan. If and when Ricky is declared 100% fit again, a choice will be made by all concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The above is taken from the Swindon Speedway site.They think this is a short term deal to aid Berwick through their injury concerns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandits4eva Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 Eddie himself said he will be very happy staying for as long as we need him! And crescent girl is right... Unless you're the specialist consultant in neurology treating Ricky, no-one can tell for sure how long this will keep him out for! Main thing, especially considering the knocks he's taken, is that he comes back 100% fit! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No arguement from me,Im delighted to see Kennett racing for Berwick,and hope he is here for the season at least.Im only stating what Kennetts employers at Swindon see as to the terms of his deal with Berwick. As for asking if Im neurology trained is just childish. lets face it, Eddie isn't going to say I'm only here for the money and the travelling is a pain in the arse is he Are you trained in neurololgy.
