Louis will probably come out with the Berwick TM was on the phone to the ref about Kemp's engine.

Second time we’ve been shafted whilst winning away, absolute travesty that we completed all of our home meetings in time and we’re not going to make the play offs because of an extended deadline and everyone else not bothering to run home meetings against us

Very true, in those circumstances there should be a mechanism to award the points to the away team. 

Hopefully Ipswich are just as soft next week but I doubt it.

Incredible comments from the Bandits fans :rofl:

'Excuses'

'Delaying tactics'

'Running scared'

'Shafted again'

'Only one winner'

'Panic had set in'

More comedy than Sunday night at the London Palladium

For me it wasnt a miserable hour in the rain

To see the control and track craft from Drew in heat 4 to retain 3rd when boxed in and under severe pressure was worth whatever admission money I dont get back and ending up soaked through

In any circumstances that wouldve been a fantastic effort but in tonights conditions it was remarkable and a truly sublime piece of riding

Well Dick Barrie said otherwise:party:

Well he would wouldn't he, amazing  how Berwick fans, can say they have been robbed of an away result when they are only leading by 4 points after 6 races , in one race the scores could have been level, your own rider won heat 6  3 seconds slower than the previous race which tells me the track was rideable  but not raceable , so what do Berwick fans want , a win at any cost with possible injuries to riders . I know I would prefer to see good racing rather than riders risking life and limbs just to please a few disgruntled fans.

Nobody wants to see riders injured. What is annoying is there are a lot less fixtures than last season, the weather has been amazing and teams are still behind when it comes to completion.

All the riders should be applauded for giving it a go

There was no way it could continue

Very frustrating

Double header next week??

Imo Meeting should have never started with the forecast what it was but both teams needed the points so was always going to be started.  Constant rain from the 1st heat ( which the 2 mins came on at 19.39) conditions very much like that rain infested Hackney GP. 

The least experienced rider tonight looked far from it with sublime throttle control and track craft. Putting the bike where he wanted it to go and never just going along for the ride with a switch for a throttle unlike some of the current crop of riders...

I appreciate the risk of injury but was anyone injured/did it look dangerous? The deadline is in 10 days and it’s just so frustrating, we completed our 10 meetings so easily and could have got another 7 or 8 in as well before the deadline, there is literally no excuses for this situation apart from Workington and to a lesser extent Lakeside. Away team should be given the points at the end of the season unless the away team have actively tried to stop the meeting from going ahead.
