He's been round at least half the Championship clubs and used up all his chances IMO. Their are lots of riders who protect and keep their averages low especially towards the end of the season so they get employment the following season, it’s been going on for decades, it’s nothing new.

Now he’s dominating Chris Harris and controlling the race to keep him behind. What a pile of rubbish. Jye was out of order last night with his move on Harris, and if you don’t agree, ask Jye’s team mates who apologised to Chris for the move.

Sarj has kept his low all season! Consistent in that regard if little else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will also depend what scores from last season he is dropping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now he’s dominating Chris Harris and controlling the race to keep him behind. don't think he actually controlled the race - Harris had no option but to shut off otherwise he would have joined Tigers fans on terracing - took David Howe to calm matters at end of race - considering Chris gives everyone plenty of room to race the rash way Jye dealt with it was poor including revving up at the end of the race - i'm sure other riders would have dealt with this differently - just remember Jye if that,s the reputation you want - you need to expect if you dish it out you will get it back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the excitement has been when Chris Harris has missed the gate. When one of the highlights was Buddy the Bandit doing wheelies on a mini bike you know it’s been dull. Apparently 30 tons of shale was deposited on the track this week, but you’d be hard pressed to notice the difference It wasn't Berwicks fault on Saturday night, as Glasgow didn't turn up. After Friday up at Glasgow I was expecting a meeting similar the one at the beggining of the season. Apart from heat 9 which was brilliant and heat 13 to a lesser degree there was little entertainment to be had. I have said it many times we pay to be entertained and simply are not being entertained. I am not blaming our club for that on Saturday night as it isn't their fault the opposition wasn't up for the fight. Heard it was 56 ton of shale, but was hardly noticeable, shows how little shale was on the track previously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Details can be found on the club's Facebook page. With a special mention for Chris Harris, who walked around the entire stadium with his bucket, posing for selfies and thanking each fan for their donation. For a visiting rider, who had just been handed a 5-1 and might have been a bit down, this was truly commendable. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MANSE Posted July 30, 2018 Report Share Posted July 30, 2018 Glasgows chance of doing anything on Saturday was gone on Thurs when Ipswich picked up 4 points at Redcar which put them back in the mix for a play off spot,and Schleins performance confirmed that. Our two reserves were never going to get more than 2/3 points unless Berwick riders had problems, Starke not very good from gate 80% races at Berwick won from gate I think that leaves Two. Vissing 2 poor rides then makes 2 gates and wins both, now down to one who was excellent just my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, who the f**k do you think you are? He could take Berwick as he pleases like he has done in the past! We also have a young son who loves watching speedway so one thing you do as a parent is things that make your kids happy! Hopefully you grow up and learn that at some point in the future! Still puzzles me why you bother commenting though if you have no interest in it anymore! 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind I wasn't 'knocking' him just merely pointing out the fact that he does not find it entertaining and dull. The club have to try different things and if they work then fine but sometimes not every idea will work, that's life. So the club should be commended for trying to be innovated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
