Bagpuss Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 Morris was unfortunate but Toft and Perry just weren't producing the goods. They aren't the first riders to thrive in a different environment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allthegearbutnaeidea Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 ALL HAIL TOM PERRY tonights performance from him and Thomas Jorgensen was Mudgway, Complin and Clews esc, unbelievable speedway Nige, best meeting at Shielfield since World U21 Final you heard it here first, if our track was like that every week we would be in dreamland. Lets all hope that wasn't the last meeting at Shielfield as I enjoyed my speedway immensly tonight, bring on tomorrow. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reviresco Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 Very pleased for Tom Perry. Birmingham have got a fantastic crop of young British talent there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topsoil Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 Brilliant meeting, the best of the season. Some great racing and passing in nearly all of the races. If every meeting was like this the crowds would be flocking back. TJ was outstanding, looking very fast. Five passes on the night from Tom Perry, who thankfully cannot gate. Great reserve pairing he makes with Liam, who is finishing the season on fire. A word for the visitors, Kennett and Robson were as good as usual, both had great races with TJ. Rob Branford always goes well around Berwick and tonight was no exception. Great way to finish the season. Hopefully the meetings on Monday night and tonight will have persuaded any would-be buyers out there that the club is worth taking over. Everybody went away talking about how good the racing was tonight. Give the fans more like that and they will return. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samsplint Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 I think someone should tell Tom you cant pass at Shielfield 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandits4eva Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 (edited) That was worth the trip for... For those who say you can't pass at Shielfield... Tonight dispelled that again Thank you to all who've made this season so frustratingly enjoyable Berwick will hopefully be bouncing into our 50th year next year.. I heard more positivity tonight than I've heard in a while! Just hoping to hear some positive news soon Edited September 10, 2016 by Bandits4eva 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 You can ignore the score as this was a far better meeting than it would suggest. Berwick looked to have a comfortable lead but a 8-1 in Ht9 brought Rye House right back into things, thankfully for the home team they hit back with maximum heat wins of their own. Kennett, Robson and Branford were excellent for the visitors but unfortunately for them Lanham and Heeps were weak links. So our 49th season is over but I believe we will see a 50th season and many more with a bit of luck. Hopefully any new owners will bring the necessary changes both on track and off, re-build the relationship between the football club and the speedway and re-engage with the fans who aren`t turning up on a Saturday night anymore. Do all that and they could have a successful club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allthegearbutnaeidea Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 That was a suspicious decision to me, looked like TJ got it, cracking race though! 2 races in 1 Kelv and Nige would of been loving it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that would've been a good meeting to screen on Sky TV. Even though we lost it was a thoroughly enjoyable meeting.

No suspicious decision, Kennett did get it just on the line. Now that would've been a good meeting to screen on Sky TV. Even though we lost it was a thoroughly enjoyable meeting. Mind you, once the sun had gone down it was freezing!! Man up, we`ve sat shivering through June, July and August, trust to luck that our season is over and we get half decent weather for the last meeting or two.

Bandit59 Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Great meeting typical the last of the season if we only had more like that all season long what can you say about TJ on bend 2 first laps he gets into some positions on that bike as has been mentioned about Tom great young rider was also good to see The Gap winning his last 2 races.Hopefully some good news in the not to distant future regarding the club what a long wait till March again may have to go and see the Monarchs to prolong my season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
