Berwick V Scunthorpe Championship 22/4/17@7-00pm


Recommended Posts

Great Result for The Scorpions.. Bit unexpected, would've been pleased with a point but to collect three, fantastic.

 

Hope Lewis Kerr is okay after his spill.. we need to build on this win... to have Lewis, Josh and Fritz out injured tomorrow would be a big blow.... Fingers crossed he's ok.

TBF.... you've always been rubbishe Sarah 😜

There's rubbishe and then there's how we've been this season.... We don't seem to have been competitive anywhere and ain't winning home matches.. It ain't even May but some peoples limits have been reached.... Ipswich next week which I'm contemplating on whether to go to as I feel so down beat at the minute!

Exactly. Never expected that but again lost out in reserves. Berwick would have been well beat BUT I stand by my choice of deciding not to go as I thought we would be well beat. Solid team again but Bailey must be a worry. Out of his depth in the Premiership but I thought he would be doing better in the Championship. Needs the confidence of heat wins in the NDL similar to how posters are having a go at Clegg

Fighting in the pits...Claus told where to go...Bridger dropping revolution and riding Carr's bikes at the end (Looking very good I must say)...Berge wants to f*** off after his heat 10 performance, well done to Dany and Kev, Liam will be ok come next month when at 7 I think. This team is worse than 2007 so far...

:) :) Scunny will think they are the dog bollox now beating the whipping boys in this 6 pointer ;)

After last weeks 1 point at Workington & then the loss against Redcar(credit to them as I thought they were a solid team at the start of the season) I would hope the Scorps will be ready for the Monarchs. Hoping we score in depth as the big 2 of Masters & Wells does not look good but entertainment is what we need & we are blessed with that at the EWR. Hoping the injuries are not too severe and we have our big riders available for tomorrow.

Many thanks to Tom Perry, 7 pts from 5 rides was probably the difference. Sometimes we get guests that just seem to not hurt their own team(or paid to do so) ;):drink::t:

Well done to Sunny . You're never going to win a speedway meeting with a 2 man team , losing Claus was a big blow that said it was an excellent performance from Danny and Kev ,. By the time Bridger got going it was to late , Berge was dire did he actually pick any points that weren't gifted ? Liam is a finding life in the main body of the team tough , but I don't see him improving much when he drops down added to the fact that Danny will swap with him so we won't get the extra rides from him .

Josh Bailey rode ok tonight, looked smooth just needing a bit more speed.

I know almost nothin about bikes but clearly this revolution/Bridger business ain't working out from my vantage point.. looks class on Liam's bike. Think Berge and the awol Vissing may be shown the door..

As far as I know Bridger is in the process of getting rid of revolution and I agree looked a lot better on Liam's bikes. I think they already have been shown the door!

Oh dear. Talk about kicked when you are down. You could point to a couple of bits of bad luck tonight, heat 1 when Ryan Douglas jumps the start, goes to the back, but instead of punishing his own mistake, the race is stopped. Berwick were on a 4-2, the re-run is a 5-1 against. Then Bridger drops a chain trying to go round Douglas in heat 6. But overall just too many riders under performing.

Easiest thing in the world to start pointing fingers and criticise, I'll leave that for others to do.

What probably won't be said is that there was again good racing tonight, Bridger's last to second in heat 13 (good to see Lewis Kerr up and about that was a nasty one) and the heat 15 between Bridger and Palm Toft was excellent. Several other heats with passing as well, but that will be lost amongst the negativity around the result.

The crowd was, as expected, well down tonight and the result tonight won't have done anything to help matters.

Silver linings? Dany Gappmaier had his best meeting as a Bandit, brilliant tonight. And the NJL team won.

Maybe time for Gary Havelock to make some more drunken video messages on twitter?

Reading Dick Barrie's trivia on the website where he sarcastically say Scunthorpe should consider changing their name to the Bell Ends,I suggest he's talking about the wrong Team.

Foot and mouth disease and backfires on him once again he really should to the graceful thing and retire completly he is fast turning in to a complete embarresment.
