Berwick 2017 50th Year


Recommended Posts

Any news on young Kieran Douglas after he took a nasty tumble on Thursday night? Also anybody know how last night's practice went?

Went very well. Lots of riders, a good track and no one hurt. 6.30 till just after 9.00 which was just about right with one major grading and watering.

 

I spoke to Kieran, and I think he would have loved to have ridden, but he has to rest for a full month before he can ride again.

Liam out and David Howe in!

Big big gamble but I just hope it pays off!

This team won't be allowed. As pointed out, Gappmier will be given the higher of his averages, so 6.5 and not 4.

Why 6.5? He's averaging 5.79 this season, I think it will be cleared by the MC. Just so happens that CvS and Godfrey will have involvement so I hope for the best, not exactly going to be challenging for the title anyways...

A new average for Scunny and Ipswich riders wasn't applied (if they hadn't completed the required meeting's).

If they had applied new averages to all riders then both these teams would have been turned down so cannot see them applying a different rule for Berwick.

 

Hopefully Liam regains his confidence by scoring points for Birmingham.

Scunny were given new averages and Ipswich made a like-for-like change before the team had raced 4h/4a

I see Sparks123 point.

Scunny had part of the team awarded their new averages but those who had not completed 4h 4a maintained the original figure.

The Scunny change wasnt like for like either with Nielsen on 5.5 and Wallner 4.

Howe in and Carr out, is a good move under the circumstances. Good luck to Liam at Birmingham, hope he gets his confidence back.

Howe's probably all we could afford wage wise. We could of took Etheridge out for anything up to 7.9 but the last thing I'd want to see happen is the club go bust through wages. Would of liked for Liam to go to 7 to get some confidence back but he's got a NL team so should get it back anyways

Surely Carr could have been slotted into the number 7 spot somehow, it has been a real challenge for the lad this year which is a shame and sadly nowadays teams are less willing to carry riders. Lewis Kerr I think has been the biggest downfall within this Berwick side, but then again he might do well on his 6.92? Average

Need to put brain into gear before starting.
