The White Knight Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Lewi Kerr has been discharged by the hospital. Amazing progress he must really be "The Kerminator" Our thoughts go to Lewi and his family as care in hospital is down to medical staff whom have seen it all before, his family now have the task of making Lewi's recovery their number 1 priority and it may not be easy! I will bet his family will have a problem keeping him well as he will be eager to get back his mojo and will want to visit Brough and Kings Lynn etc and also want to get on a bike again. Take it easy Lewi and get well soon. We Newcastle fans salute you for doing so well Good luck mate! A bit early to think about that don't you think.

dantodan Posted August 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 A bit early to think about that don't you think. Yes White Knight. I was just trying to say Lewi may want to do that, get on a bike before he is ready / fit enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samsplint Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 Keep an eye on local road reports if you are going down to this meeting as there have been long delays on the A1 the last few days south of Morpeth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Angus Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 Learned this morning that Rob Branford is no longer available to replace Richard Hall for Berwick. Arthur Sissis instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantodan Posted August 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 (edited) Arthur Sissis is a far better guest for Berwick. He can score points at Brough Park. No news yet of the guest(s) for the Diamonds. I am looking forward to seeing the Bandits at Brough it seems like ages since their last visit. Bring some support Berwick as we all need a few extra quid through the turnstiles. I hope Tero the Hero is improved injury-wise as he usually gets amongst the points Edited August 15, 2015 by dantodan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allthegearbutnaeidea Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 Both Sissis and Mathias suffered injuries last night, Arthur's being a suspected broken collarbone, unsure on Mathias' injury but he withdrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dantodan Posted August 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 (edited) Well whose riding tonight? Neither teams websites give us any clues but..... The Diamonds are without Lewi Kerr, Lewis Rose and Christian Henry and are likely to be served rumour has it, by Carl Wilkinson guesting for Lewi, Tero Aarnio (signed in) for Lewis Rose but Tero is carrying an injury too, and R/R for Christian With all due respect to Carl we could have had a higher scoring guest now couldn't we? Or am I the only person on here that didn't know a better guest wasn't available Well, I like Carl and he often has good races here but he also has his problems, falls and going out wide in the rough stuff around the boards, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't Ask Ludde!!. I like to watch Carl but he is so unreliable. Have a good match Wilko! Tero, if fit, is a great little rider he can gate, blast around the boards and when he has to or hug the white line. I like him being in the team as he, like Wilko, is unpredictable but Tero the Hero rarely doesn't score. He could be a match winner. R/R for Christian is a bit suspect as most of his rides will be covered by our reserves plus I believe Anton Rosen... Now Anton is a decent rider who appears to be struggling with a lack of confidence. He often backs out of challenging the guy in front which appears to be a confidence issue. So come on Anton you can do it! As far as Berwick are concerned. They signed Mathias Thornblom to ride at number 1. He may have been injured yesterday? The Bandits had brought in Arthur Sissis as a guest but he picked up an injury yesterday. So the Newcastle disciples head for Brough unclear as to which riders will be on show tonight but we pay our money as we are the grass support of Newcastle Speedway. Lets hope the two teams rev up and go, let us be entertained we pay our admission with that hope in mind Edited August 16, 2015 by dantodan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus all the half decent/decent guests might be up at Glasgow? Edited August 16, 2015 by Steve Park Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HadrianDog Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 Leaving the forum now to buy my ticket as usual, but the mystery situation re. guests does not exactly encourage people to do likewise I would bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dantodan Posted August 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 (edited) Yeah! well as much as I don't like being taken for granted, my daughter and I, as usual will be there, on our step near the 4th bend, hoping to see a great match for our money, yes most of us pay. Whoever at Brough is responsible for keeping the press informed has let the fans down for the Berwick match. I presume the guy or lady responsible gets in for free while we don't. well in future earn your free ticket and inform those of us who pay every week of the riders we will be paying to see. We are the reason why speedway is still continuing in Newcastle. The paying public should get a whole lot more from the people Newcastle Speedway seem to think are worthy of free admission. Well if you cannot even say who is riding on the day of a home match then you are not worth your free admission cost to our sport and you should chuck it in! Having said all this, as a proper speedway fan, I, as always, am looking forward to supporting Newcastle against all teams, Berwick tonight despite not knowing which riders will be on show. I would like to offer the person at fault the chance to explain themself via the forum so please answer this post, if you can be bothered Edited August 16, 2015 by dantodan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 Risager comes in to guest for the injured Thornblom and Branford comes in for the injured Sissis who was to have been riding as a replacement for the unavailable Hall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
