Berwick Bandits Vs Newcastle Diamonds Pl 7.5.16 7.00pm


Recommended Posts

The early season optimism has completely gone.

 

An awful meeting, no racing and a defeat just to top it off.

 

Jorgensen needs to pull his finger out he's been poor all season and if he doesn't start turning up its time to get rid of him.

 

Bager looked worse than Mellgren at least Mellgren could gate, Bager just missed the start and hugged the white line.

 

It's time for Courtney to walk if he thinks Henning Bager is the answer.

As long as it's in the best interests of the sport,that's the most important thing

Even though you knew that collapse would inevitably occur, that was so hard to watch. People tonight saying the good feeling is ebbing away. They're right.. 10 up and we lose by 8 at home.. Should not be taken lightly. People will not tolerate that much longer.

I'm going tomorrow as I'm a mug but expect a walloping!

I'm pleased to see all the diamonds fans on here thanking Glasgow and their riders - barker, Richie and Victor (hopefully a nice loan fee) and not to forget henning who also helped, in a different sort of way :shock:

Great win for the Diamonds but t don't think this was due to guests. Richie always does a good job for us and Ben rode well after a slow start. Big thanks to both but Robert and Kus fly around Berwick, reasonable assumption to think we would have won anyway, possibly without a TR. Big mention to Stevie who is in top, top form and to our reserves who did well tonight.

Just returned from Berwick got to agree awful meeting just one pass in fifteen races and that was due to piper making a mistake. That's the rant over, bloody brilliant performance lads coming back from ten down to win. Big thank you to Ben Barker and Richie great performance lads fully committed.

Too many weak links I'm afraid. Against a team who are strong at 1, 3 and 5 and when Lindgren came on strong at the end of the meeting you are going to get found out. The strength in depth argument falls down when you concede a 5-1 in heat 2 and your number 4 only scores a point. Only silver lining was Seb seemed very fast in his opening three rides and we need him firing.

There's always next week.

Better hope we are at least 12-14 up by the time heat 13 comes round considering they have heat leaders that are good at our place!

Excellent win for the diamonds which i wasn't expecting and would have snap your hands of if offered point before the meeting. Plus as good a job Barker and Richie did which obviously grateful for not sure they got as many as Kus and Lambert would have which shows how good win it is. Also well done on Phillips getting win in heat 2 should help his confidence, and excellent performance by Steve Worrall but everybody contributed something to the result. Now need to make sure we get another win tomorrow.

Just wonder about the fitness of Kevin and Liam tonight after both suffered bad crashes last night. Plus the damage to Kevin's machinery. TJ's first meeting for three weeks and Bager is obviously going to be rusty. Theo was a bit unlucky tonight with the puncture and then touching the tapes after Barker obviously moved.

But the main problem again, as always, is gating, especially when the track is slick.
