topsoil Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 Got to agree with everything so far said about Kevin Doolan. Every time I've seen him after meetings at Berwick he's been surrounded by kids and will always stop and speak and pose for a photo. Ideal captain material, nothing but praise for the way he conducts himself. Mind you, I would probably say the same about all the Bandits riders this season and 99% of all speedway riders. One of the things Berwick do well is the riders' interaction with the fans after the meetings. All the riders go into the grandstand and speak to the fans and have photos taken. Also Dick Barrie does a good job with the mascots when the teams are being introduced. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by some of the doom and gloom merchants the riders will outnumber the supporters in the stand after the next meeting 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reviresco Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Might be a case of announcing the crowd changes to the team. Brilliant. What are the rules on operating Fan Replacement and Guest Fans? I don't like the Tactical Fan Rule though as I don't kike wearing a black and white cap. Makes me look even more like a badger.

TheScotsman Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 I've been a guest fan most of the season at fox holes. Not many good opposition performances to cheer though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No fan replacement but guests galore, infact the more the merrier, a bit like some EL meetings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayleigh Posted September 1, 2016 Report Share Posted September 1, 2016 Some would claim their girlfriends prefer a tactical substitute or a rider replacement in a doubling up position. Me it is too slow if it lasts more than 60 seconds and definitely not "five laps Les" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
