With Berwick as his home track,cannot see Summers improving his average.NJB will do well to achieve 6.5 can only see Jye improving his average  if he stays on the bike more.

Summers without the money men, what will his gear be like, Jye I wonder, often see the bike in charge and not the rider, is he due a 2nd year dip, or did he get it at Edinburgh.  Can Howe and Doolan improve their gear so they can move forward ????.  Could it be The Gapps year to move up a peg.  If we get the Havvy track NBJ and the Swede could do well, but if we get a Razor track not a chance in hell.

He didn't say "supplying" and it's well known that he was attracted to Glasgow by their offer. Even Brian Havelock said he didn't blame him, after seeing the offer. Brian of course made his own dosh pile out of the transfer.

The promotion is more adept at getting sponsors for their riders at Glasgow, not so at Berwick.  Better sponsorship leads to better equipment, without that type of sponsorship Spud may struggle to keep it up at Berwick.  Berwick is a low paid rural economy with few sponsors let alone bigger sponsors, the larger towns and cities stand a much better chance of bigger sponsors.

Accepted.

I think the problem often on the forum is fans are always on the defensive, and read something into the post that was not said in the first place

He will need to get himself a van next year as the one he had the last 2 years belonged to one of his Glasgow sponsors 

same could be said with many a speedway rider

youll be surprised how many want a van as part of deal

well it was in the past many just use rentatruc  now a days

We're always going to have a heavy hitting reserve pairing.
Very, very interesting team.

I approve :)

 

Trouble is Teams with 2 heavy hitting reserves, as you put it,does not have a heavy hitting top 5 ,still we will have to wait and see what transpires on track.At least we still have speedway.

New asset John Lindman and Danny Gappmaier complete the Berwick team.

Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere but....... Why is Lindman's average 5.20?

I've never heard of him and I don't see him listed on the BSPA rider A-Z.
