Berwick V Plymouth 20/6/15


Recommended Posts

Dont know about Berwick but in the main Plymouth market a Day Stall is £6.25 Tried to get it off the ground for this season but asked for help to do it, none forthcoming.

 

A5 Flyers sent by post to 150 camp sites, garages, motorbike shops in the Plymouth area together with an invite to join us free, only 1 takeup so far. Used post because it would have taken forever to deliver by hand

 

Polish shops delighted to take English language flyers as long as it has a rider piccy on it. Even after 10 years local taxis still dont know there is speedway in Plymouth let alone where it is!!!!

 

Decision making for local branches of national companies taken elsewhere, company owned garages are NOT ALLOWED by head office to display local advertising,

 

Macdonalds are normally franchises so can and will advertise in the programme but seem controlled by national policy on poster display in the shops

 

Plymouth currently has the use of a supporter supplied and maintained sign written tranny pickup with about 10,000 LEDs that visits various shows, the 5 metre rolls of LEDS are currently sold by Maplin at about £50 OR GET THEM DIRECT FROM CHINA FOR ABOUT £10 see www.DHGate.com but make each parcel less than about £25 to avoid HMRC charging VAT (and the courier companies then add about £12 for collecting HMRCs money on top) and watch out for HMRC doing a 1$ is £1 currency calculation

 

Hope Belle Vue will manage to get the new stadium opening into Corrie as a storyline, Rickie is probably a bit old to make a comeback in Eastenders.

How nice to see Fisher scoring so well... If he'd done that for us at Peterborough we may have had a different result..

 

Disappointing result but main thing is it wasn't a defeat... that will probably come next week...

 

Alex should be scoring more than 1 point on his home track..If there was issues it would be good to know what they were!

Decent opening score for our new boy considering it's his 1st meeting in England... and another good meeting for our Captain too which is pleasing!

And thank you to Richie Worrall on yet again another good guest performance for us..

Hope TJ is alright and ready for next week... we're gonna need him!

 

How badly we need a proper 1-7 though! These next few weeks are gonna show that... I do feel for our promotion with how the season has ended up!

To be fair i enjoyed the meeting . Some decent races . Unfortunately we cant really cope with claus and ben missing. But the big difference seemed to be when tj got hurt. Cant fault him for going out in next race but was obciously in discomfort. Quite liked coty was worried after his first race but then he rode fine. Given the chance he should do fine. For plymouth fisher kurtz and holder all rode well. To quote the old saying a draw was probably a fair result.

Great to see ricky back at track.

" Missing Vissing " is probably the way to sum up tonight's meeting , to be down one rider is tough but to be without two is dam near impossible , a big thanks to Richie for his efforts tonight can't be faulted The new guy looked ok after his first heat can only improve the more track time he gets , as for Alex don't know what his problem was but he was poor tonight I expect more at home meeting from him . The Devils where pretty solid throughout their team and will probably be disappointed not to win great to The Fish in great form always been one of my favourite riders .

We're missing Claus big time, need to sign a number 1.

Will we be out the pairs now with Ben injured?

Fisher was class tonight, good back up from Holder and Kurtz.

Richie Worrall rode well tonight.

Nice to see a proper parade with the riders having a blast round the track

Great to see a proper parade with the bikes out on track

hopefully the promotion continue with the bikes on parade as its well liked by the crowd

Sent email to club to thank them for this change of heart regarding meeting parade and would encourage others to do so too ! seems they have listened to what the paying public want and should be congratulated for doing so and not ignoring what the fans want

Well done Bandits 👏👏👏👏👏

Supporters got what they wanted, good to see promotion listening to supporters

Reading on the updates that Kevin Doolan signed as a Berwick asset tonight, but I've also been told Keiron Douglas signed tonight. Anybody clear this up?

Well, the only thing I can fault about that as a meeting is I would have liked the win, but that wouldn't have done Plymouth justice.

Worrall was a great guest for us, and Fisher was pretty ruthless, and impressive.

 

I thought Coty showed a fait bit of promise, quite an exciting style and got onto the pace pretty quickly for a first time out on the track.

 

The atmosphere seemed to be really good tonight. I guess decent weather always helps.

 

There was loads of very close racing, and a lot of heart in mouth stuff. For me, the sport is exhilarating when it is like that.

I wondered if Fisher had been a bit dirty on Doolan, but the answer was a clear no when Doolan went straight to shake his hand. That was some race!

 

Phew! Three weeks was a long time!

Fisher and Doolan knew what they were doing in that race. The Fish was exactly were Doolan wanted to be, and done a proper covering job for Kurtz.
