Bandits4eva Posted March 28, 2018 Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 Time to start the first meeting related thread for Berwick! Going to take this match for what it is.. A challenge match! All I'm hoping is that we can have a good nights entertainment, with a home win and perhaps make it big enough to give us a chance for the agg win on the Sunday! Ill be surprised if there is a big travelling support given how disgruntled quite a few fans are with their line up! If all goes ahead, I expect a 10-12 point lead to take to Newcastle on Sunday Not sure on the line ups but for Berwixk, we should no more by tomorrow Looking forward to it :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balderdash&piffle Posted March 29, 2018 Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 Considering the financial situation at Newcastle, they are lucky to be running, and the fans should be pleased at that 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be there, supporting the team as usual. Not expecting a win, but providing we are entertained, I'm not too concerned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted March 30, 2018 Report Share Posted March 30, 2018 With today's poor forecast for rain all day and tomorrow's showery forecast I think the track was covered first thing this morning so well done to all involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBSC Posted March 30, 2018 Report Share Posted March 30, 2018 The covers done wonders last season ensuring we had no rainoffs so fingers crossed for tomorrow night. Yes well done to all involved in getting them down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screm Posted March 31, 2018 Report Share Posted March 31, 2018 Wet all day yesterday and currently raining now and forecast to stay that way for much of the day. Yes the covers have been down since early yesterday and have saved many a meeting but in most cases the rain has passed by the time the covers have been removed, time will tell if this weather moves on.

ruffdiamond Posted March 31, 2018 Report Share Posted March 31, 2018 Quite wet and raining down here too, so maybe the Tyne Tweed Toffee-hammer will have to go on the back burner for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the past there is no denying that covers have saved meetings, in this case I suspect there is no real window of drier weather forecast for the removal of the covers and then track work to happen. Well done to the promotion for an early decision saving people a wasted trip. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annoying that for the first time they have failed to beat the weather. Would still say that six meetings saved and one lost is a damned good justification for investing in cover ... but feel free to smugly mock. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, Berwick have shown the way that covers do work for the most part, for that they deserve credit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
