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

Maybe as Lewis Bridger is alledgedly having problems with his Revolution Team JRM engines. A deal could be worked out on a pay as you go type agreement to provide him with a Gerhard engine. The more he earns the quicker the engine gets paid off. Say 10% of his points money was the agreement. Be a good way of advertising their reliability and performance.

Looking at this there seems no reason for Vissing to miss last nights meeting, the SGP Qualifier he was due to ride in was abandoned after two races on Friday, by the looks of it the re-arranged date is due to April 27th but even that is in doubt. IMO Vissing has gone off in one but huff and I think we have seen the last of him.

Having a bad day are we.

 

How can I be manure stirring when I have put a link of a report from Friday`s/Saturday`s meeting from Denmark. On parade last night it was announced that Gary Havelock would put the clubs position at some time during last nights meeting, obviously that didn't happen. Dennis in the box did announce that while he would leave the team manager to make an official statement the club was disappointed, make of that what you will.

Like I mentioned in my previous post with my comment about KK , Claus isn't the first rider to do this sort of thing and sadly he wont be the last

Bit unprofessional if Claus took the huff because he wasn't in heat 15 last week but you can see his point.At least if he was in that heat there was a chance he would have gated and got out in front.The way Lewis was gating last week it was a near certainty he was going to be last out the gate and if so didn't have a hope of getting past the Glasgow riders.Another weird decision by the manager whose coat should also be on a shaky peg.Lessons from last night would be to put a new bulb in the white exclusion light and wash the windows of the referee's box.I hope the trainee referee in the box last night wasn't paying too much attention to his teacher or that'll just be another idiot in the making.Also maybe get Dimitri to stop watching videos of Alex Edberg in his last Berwick appearances.He's obviously copying them in every detail.Fair play and congratulations to Scunthorpe.They rode and were managed like a professional sports team.

I agree with you that Vissing should've been in Ht15 last week against Glasgow, that certainly was a strange one.

That's assuming Vissing wanted heat 15..

Some say he was upset at not getting heat 15 and others questioning if he wanted heat 15?

 

Not being at the speedway since the opening meeting (due to other commitments) I cannot tell. I did speak to someone after the Glasgow meeting and he told me he thought that Claus possibly had a clutch problem or similar due to just about hitting the fence 3 or 4 times in heat 11. He was just trying to guess when I asked why he wasn't in heat 15.

I was at the meeting and can tell you that Claus came out the pits and watched Ht13 &14 from the banking down from the 3rd bend before making his way back to the pits,I think he was thinking he had chance of being in Ht 15.Personaly he would have been a better option than Bridger who had been lifting at the start all night.

At this one as a neutral. Having heard about this season's improved crowds at Shielfield, I was surprised to see such a sparse attendance. Maybe 350, tops. There were certainly no more there than on my last visit to the track, for a meaningless end-of-season match against Rye House in September 2015. A regular told me Berwick fans like to vote with their feet. Only too obvious!

What? He was in heat 13 and he certainly wasn't on the 3rd bend at any point?

Your are correct he was in Ht 13,it was Ht 14 he watched from where the Steward stands ,when you are not allowed along to the small tea bar at the Pits ,the people I was standing with asked who it was and it was Bandit In No 5 race jacket along with someone else.He then walked back along to Pits.100% positive on that .

We missed last weekend as on Easter minibreak, but last night wasn't good to come back to. Bridger had different mechanic last night and his performance on Liam's bike will show him what is needed and show Liam that the bikes can do it and will help him too. As soon as averages change the changes should be Berge and now Vissing out altho I would keep Liam. Racing and track were pretty good last night and Danny Gapp was great. If we are going back to just one presenter can't we make him Steve Hayward, as I don't think my good friend Roy who is a lovely man will ever be accepted at Shielfield. Get well soon Scott Courtney too.

Just my opinion but I think Roy Clarke is doing a fine job. Last night he was given an almost impossible task of keeping the home fans entertained between races when the majority are feeling miserable because of the score. He gives good interviews and is knowledgeable about the sport. Also last night Dennis was bang out of order once over, Roy asked him a genuine question (think it was details of an upcoming meeting) and got the reply "i don't care". End of that conversation then.
