You must be pleased Messer Harkness and Campbell are not frequent viewers of this site. Liable comes with strict penalties in the new Scottish regime.

Nothing libellous about that. They should be pleased I'm putting another £16 towards their huge wage bill.

I can't stand liver & onions, but I ain't got the Meat Marketing board after me

The Dark Lord maybe not , but the other Chuckle Brother has been known to dabble in the forum .

There is no reason at all why we should constantly go with the mind set that we are beat before we begin. Hopefully John has batted this into their heads and we forget about the KO Cup meeting. I shall yet again try my luck and go to Armadale in hope that I see my team pull off a decent performance. Miracles could happen one of these days :lol:

I keep going year after year hoping to see a miricle

Apparently Bert Harkins guesting for Berwick.

 

Remember, you heard it here first!

 

As with Tourettes, we don't like rumour on Berwick threads, and again you should know better. I expect your rumour will be confirmed via newsletter later tonight.

 

If Harkins is guesting, are you saying there has been another call off, at this rate the meeting is falling into the hands of Edinburgh.

It's all just rumour...

Having witnessed some of Berwicks previous performances at "The San Siro" of Scottish Speedway , Bert Harkins would probably still be able to out perform some of the current team :lol:

With the full strength Bandits turning up,I hope people have purchased the advanced online tickets other wise people might be turned away with large crowd expected for this top of the table clash,what with Monarchs good crowds and Berwicks fans bringing a mate it could be a sell out.

I'm being dragged up kicking and screaming. Never enjoyed my visits to Armadump, even worse when going as a neutral. Can't stand the place

You cannot be serious A NEUTRAL surely you will be wearing your black and gold tinted glasses

One thing is for sure, we're going there as underdogs.

 

I'm making no predictions this time, though!

Let's put it this way. I wouldn't be disappointed to see the Moanarchs lose, but that's just cos I can't stand em!

Confirmed on Official Edinburgh website that Aaron Fox will return :)

 

Would expect it might still take him some time to be 100% fit after being the innocent party of that terrible crash at Berwick.

 

Weather forecast is good for tomorrow evening also.

Weather was glorious (for Armadale) last time I was there, surely I'm not gonna be treated to two meetings there in a row when it hasn't rained?

According to the Met Office it's 40% chance of showers from 2pm-10pm

I have found this forecaster is usually more reliable than Michael Fish's former employer :wink: :-

Could be Bandits' best chance of glory tonight.

 

Aaron has only just been cleared to ride and who knows what effect that horrendous crash might have on him.

 

I also read that as of yesterday Deek was very doubtful to ride because of an allergic reaction to a wasp sting.

He has today confirmed he will ride, but our reserve strength could be a bit suspect tonight.

 

Need the other 5 to be on song.

Latest from the Edinburgh Official site.

 

Berwick Bandits will arrive at Armadale tonight determined to improve on recent form round the Scotwaste Arena and pick up at least one league point.

The charge for the top spot in the league race and thus the first choice of play off opponent is very much a three horse race with Scotwaste Monarchs, the Bandits and Somerset desperate for very league point available. Form team Ipswich could join the leading group if the pull off a shock win at Somerset tonight. However, it is the Bandits who fancy their chances of top spot with some winnable away matches to come.

Scotwaste Monarchs have had an illness worry all week over team captain Derek Sneddon. He was stung on the cheek by a wasp at the beginning of the week and suffered a severe allergic reaction that saw his face blow up like a balloon. Despite treatment at his local hospital Derek was very doubtful about his ability to ride yesterday morning. However, the swelling has now subsided a little and at Friday lunchtime Derek said, "My face is still far from pretty but a lot better than last night. I'm good to go." Good news indeed for the team.

Scotwaste Monarchs resident mountaineer, Geoff Craythorne, will be at the stadium gates tonight to answer any questions about the Ben Nevis climb, now rescheduled for 20th September, and will be taking names of anyone who wishes to join one of the riders climbing teams
