Berwick 2014?


Recommended Posts

speaking to members of the promotion they all seem very positive about next season, as for the team kozza depending on long track commitments bellego, + 5 more

 

If you say so, but I cannot believe members of the promotion are talking in anything but the most-general of terms, as it is obvious speedway is in for a huge winter shake-up, and leagues and averages may not be as before.

 

No promotion can be making firm plans just yet.

 

Please keep him, hopefully we never have to endure him in a Berwick team again.

 

Typically unwanted post about a rider often-injured while wearing Berwick's colours and later dropped through no fault of his own to accomodate Ed Kennett. While many many not have Alex in their minds as a first pick next year, he would always be a welcome visitor for the Bandits' supporters I know, and if he did come back, might be given every encouragement by the majority.

Can i ask what Berwick fans don't like about Alex Edberg ?

He has joined Leicester & been a breath of fresh air while giving us some much needed strength at reserve .

 

It isn't "Berwick fans" lionking.

 

It is a couple of dissidents, who delight in stirring the rubbish. I think you have one or two of the same ilk at Leicester, no?

 

Berwick fans will give their backing to any rider in black-and-gold, and will agree with you that Alex Edberg was a cheerful and popular member of the team, albeit restricted by injury.

 

 

(Edit: Actually, I didn't write "rubbish" in this post. The BSF policepersons automatically changed the word I typed!)

Dont think the Berwick fans "dislike" Alex ,but lets be honest he did not perform on a number. of occasions and was injury prone.If it works out at Leicester then good luck to him.

Lol would it be to dangerous for you to use your own brain and form an opinion? Not just go with the majority?

Well their season didn't seem to improve with his departure.......Our gain!!!!!!!

 

As always on here you don't get a scientific sample of views.

I wouldnt re-sign Alex Edberg, nothing against the guy

 

Me neither,though as a club asset he`s bound to come under consideration for a team place next season,which is understandable.On his night he`s capable of big scores,but at the start of the season at Berwick he looked poor.Sadly for the rider,and whatever club he rides for,he seems prone to injuries.

I think some of comments on here about Alex are out of order.

The fact that he is back on a bike after the most horrendous crash I have seen in over 30 years of watching speedway, should mean he is - at the very least - shown respect.

 

He has talent, and with a bit more luck will develop as a rider.

You are, of course, correct. On a quick think, the only active riders I can think of who are Berwick assets would be Seb Alden, David Bellego (thanks, Tigers!), Nicki Barrett, Liam Carr, Alex Edberg, Pepe Franc and Gino Franchetti.

 

Not a long list.

 

Next year's assets will include Joey Ringwood, Joe Jacobs and Anders Thomsen. ;)

Well as our season crawls to yet another dismal end after what I think most of us thought would be a season where we challenged for something what can we say for next year.

Highlights are Bellego steady progress hope he stays and doubles up.

Kozza still remains as Mr Entertainment and never say die attitude deserves a return if he wants it.

Paul Starke good reserve for next season but will he be an option?

The rest well it's P45 time guys you have occasionally shown glimpses of why you were signed but all lack the consistency and passion expected to win matches.

As for the team manager end of term report D- for the reasons above.
