bigeddiechek Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 So, Sparkafag puts up a really good post, but it is clearly above the usual suspects' level of intellect.Quite interesting stats, Sparky. Although people are saying Kus got a lot of his points from reserve, he actually regularly beat some of the top number 1 riders from the league.I was unsure of him at the start of last season, but I am of no doubt now that he is a classy rider.Looking forward to having him as guest on Saturday, and it makes complete sense to me at least...I'm not surprised Redcar put a high price on him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinh88 Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Jan Graveson generally beats top riders from reserve, utter garbage in the main side.. Kus isn't a replacement for Barker (well Barker a few years back) He is probably the best of what was on offer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crescent girl Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 E-Newsletter has a couple of interesting items tonight: POSTERS: As was announced on Saturday, a supply of bold, bright posters advertising Berwick Speedway are available -- free, of course -- from our Track Shop on race-nights. These, as can be seen, advertise all our matches in April. New posters will be released at the end of the month. We would be delighted if you could take one or more of these posters-- there are small A4 ones and larger A3 jobs -- away with you this Saturday, and put them up somewhere the public can see them and learn about our Saturday-night fun'n'games! In schools, on factory notice-boards, shop-windows, house windows -- anywhere and everywhere, spreading the good word about YOUR Dixon Building Bandits. REF'S REPORT: Did you know that after every meeting, the referee in charge of proceedings is required to file a report to the Speedway Control Bureau, detailing the night's events and marking the condition of the track on a sliding scale? Having just received a copy of Graham Flint's report of last Saturday's match, we thought we might share the first night's ratings. Track Preparation: Excellent. Track Surface: Excellent. Foam barrier (bends): Excellent. Regular safety-fence (straights): Excellent. Such overall praise is rare, and when we saw a report such as this, we just had to share it with you. Full marks and congratulations to George Hepburn and his talented track-team! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCookie Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 There's desperate and then there is "Regular safety-fence (straights): Excellent.". Jesus christ, it's worse than Newcastle United being balance sheet champions 2015. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fromafar Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Replacing Ben Barker's points with an equal scorer is probably impossible. I believe Matej Kus scored more points at Berwick than any other rider last season, so why shouldn't he be as good a guest as you're going to find? Who else would be better, at Berwick, on Saturday? R/R maybe.! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkafag Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 I don’t know if they post on here or not but the Berwick fan Q&A in this week’s Speedway Star was really good. It was actually quite refreshing reading and remembering that the cynicism often shown on here isn’t actually reflected among the wider Berwick support. IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparkafag Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 (edited) Yes he does, and he can be very critical of the club at times, and has been so on here. And if it is deserved so he should. Based on the Q&A in the star it is done in equal measure, really refreshing. It is balanced, informative and responsible articles like that which make you remember that social reporting, while it has it’s bonuses will always have its absolute pitfalls in that it also affords a platform to the absolute dregs of society to voice their thoughts and opinions, which, while an opinion, often holds absolutely no credibility what so ever.

bigeddiechek Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 ... it affords a platform to the absolute dregs of society to voice their thoughts and opinions, which while an opinion often holds absolutely no credibility what so ever. IMO Such a true statement. It really does drag out the most unfortunate chaps. I found out a couple of people in the town were speedway goers yesterday, I had no idea! They absolutely love it, not a mention of track, or averages, or whatever the current moan is on here. We just had a really great blether about what we love about the sport. It truly is a case of a very few rotten apples. Time to hoy them oot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO You've done it again, Sparky. A clear, sensible and informed post, shining like a beacon of light through the murk of bile and prejudice created by a number of your fellow-Bandit posters. You'll really have to stop being so sensible. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
