Berwick V Sheffield 9th Aug 2014 @ 7pm


Recommended Posts

Cracking meeting, we should be full of confidence for Tuesday after that performance.

Back to business as usual for Matty Wethers!

Matej Kus is in sensational form at the moment, he reminds me of Adrian Rymel when he was at his best.
I'd go as far as saying he is our best rider at the moment: and the other 6 are not too bad!

Sheffield Speedway 2014 - what a disaster

 

Foreign Office! I'm just bloomin glad we still have a team to support, things may have been a lot different if the consortium hadn't come forward. Don't forget, the team wasn't sorted until February when all other teams had already announced theirs.

A good win for the Bandits against a Sheffield side that, Simon Stead apart were poor but you can only race what's on track against you, it was good too see most of the the riders on form and scoring big points . I 'd like hope David will sort himself out before Tuesday night as the next two meetings at will be far tougher than tonights opposition and will go a long way to determining were we will finish in the league :t:

Chuffed for Matty Wethers tonight he's not been in the best of form of late, but seemed to have an edge tonight. Good to see him back to something like his best.

 

Matej also sharp out of the gate and looks fast when in front.

 

Steen also attacking the first and second bends better than of late.

 

Just a word for Sheffield. Every team goes through bad spells. Only a few years ago Sheffield were unbeatable at home and were a fixture in the end of season playoffs. Every team has downturns. Their time will come again.

 

Tuesday night is going to be tough, no doubt about it. Need every rider to be on top of their game. Can't wait.

You know the Bandits are doing things right on and off track when the threads start missing some of the usual suspects!

 

:party:

I take it you mean the guys who if you gave them forty grand and told them to look out of the window they'd complain about the view

Or they couldn't see the crazy golf

If you like your racing close, and your scores even closer, this wasn't the meeting for you. Sheffield don't have their problems to find just lately with so many injuries, and sadly for them the guests they chose last night were largely ineffectual, add to that a reserve a bit out of his depth and you end up on the wrong end of a big defeat, hopefully for them their injuries clear up soon and they can get back to having a full team, if they can get Covatti scoring they will pick up points. Also, this is a different Berwick team these days, it is a team riding with confidence and one that is going to take a bit of stopping at home.

Take nothing away from Berwick though, they were excellent, it was good to see Wethers back on form, and Edberg chipping in with some good points at reserve, clearly there will be stiffer challengers but you can only beat what's put in front of you and Berwick did just that. As ever Simon Stead was a joy to watch round Shielfield.

Professional nights work for Berwick and an expected comfortable win. Great score from Weathers, hoprfully he's turned the corner. The next two matches really are the most important ones so far this season, lets get 6 points from them and take ourselves 4 points behind Ediinburgh. On last nights form, we are probably stronger with R/R for Bellego next saturday against Somerset.

I agree next 2 home matches are must wins hopefully we can continue the form we are in and get the 6 points on offer it wont be easy but it is possible.Hope they stock up on chips n burgers for Tuesday night they were all gone before 8 last night and not with that big a crowd.

Didn't put this in my earlier post but I think it is worth mentioning, well done to all concerned for the slickness of the meeting last night, well presented, well run, also thankfully there were no fallers. At least this poster is very grateful, especially as I had a 4am start at work this morning.

I thought it was a pretty decent gate. I can't remember the last time I saw so many people on the back straight.

 

I am at least partly responsible for the lack of food. The reputation of Mr Anderson's burgers has spread far and wide (I should say apart from Berwick I never touch speedway catering) so I had two.

 

Berwick were impressive, Sheffield (Stead aside) anything but.
