Normski Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Sadly his season was ended by a nasty crash at Oxford, which also claimed Swede Micheal Blixt as another victim, infact I think it ended Blixt`s career. think blixt still involved in speedway, does he not manufacture carbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theonly reason he came to Berwick was the money seen it as an easy payday, it wasn't only Lindon at fault there was others involved who liked to spend his money on over inflated contracts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screm Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 Was that the season Berwick had 2 No1s Berwick had Tatum, Jimmy Nilsson and Richard Knight as a top three, the rest of the team was mostly made up from the previous years PL team, Blackburn, Grant, Robson, Little etc, though Berwick did bring in the likes of Michael Blixt to bolster the team. Theonly reason he came to Berwick was the money seen it as an easy payday, it wasn't only Lindon at fault there was others involved who liked to spend his money on over inflated contracts Fancy that a speedway rider signing a good contract to earn good money.

MD Posted July 31, 2014 Report Share Posted July 31, 2014 Whatever happened to Terry Lindon? Wasn't David Walsh also a part of the 1991 side? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSC67 Posted July 31, 2014 Report Share Posted July 31, 2014 Terry Lindens record since his Berwick days hasn't improved he was involved in an personal injury insurance scam which went to court , but somehow he convinced the jury of his innocence I'm sure there was another case that saw him in court this time it was a fake investment scam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screm Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Not still owed money is he After all out rain offs this season, Tatum is having a laugh if he thinks there is any spare money up here. Maybe we could pay any money owed in pies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobydoo Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Micheal Blixt, what an amazing rider! Sadly injury ended his riding days. When he was signed in 1991 for Peterboro no one knew who he was after two meetings he was a fans favouite, he was the only thing David Hawkins did do right that year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falkirkbandit Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 I'd hope Kelvin would get a decent reception at Berwick next week.....from the fans that were old enough to remember when he rode for us! If i wasn't being paid, i wouldn't go to my work either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSC67 Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 (edited) I'd hope Kelvin would get a decent reception at Berwick next week.....from the fans that were old enough to remember when he rode for us! If i wasn't being paid, i wouldn't go to my work either! No matter what peoples personal thoughts on Kelvin are it should always be remembered that he was a class act , some may argue maybe he wasn't one of the greatest of team players around , he gave his all , even when he was due a substantial sum of of money from the club . Anyone who traveled to Oxford for the gold cup final and saw his and Mikeal Blixt's horrific crash ( after the cup had been won incidentally ) couldn't doubt his commitment . Personally I wouldn't like to see him get any abuse from the Bandits fans that kind of behaviour does the club no favours at all .
