It's not only the smaller tracks. He is poor at Leicester and is not making the progress that may expected him to do.

There has always been a bit of hype over Bickley ,he is not living up to it yet, still young though.Better practice his gating skills for next season.

I’ve got to be honest and say I’m disappointed. I fully understand they have to work to a budget, but this has the look of a side that will struggle near the bottom of the league table. 

Didn’t expect to see Gappmaier and Garcia back. 

Think most people thought Gap and Coty would be back as they are assets probs most people were hoping not. Both of them will be under pressure to up their game and find consisetcy as that was lacking from both last year here's hoping.

From the Berwick fans I have spoken to its fair to say they are underwhelmed by yesterday`s announcement of the last four members of the team and i can see why. For me the biggest mistake was not signing a genuine No1 rider, past lessons should've been learned and previous mistakes not re-run. I get the argument about signing a team within the clubs budget but with new and regular investment coming from the fans I thought a rider to lead the team would've been a priority. Now we have a team where at home we will have in all reality three reserves Bickley, Flint and Garcia while away we will have four Bickley, Flint, Garcia and Gappmaier and no amount of club spin will remedy that.

wish Berwick fans would get off riders back and wait to see how the riders will perform first at lest we have speedway 

Col, people are not on the riders backs, they are clearly stating, that line up is not a winning format.  It is not the riders fault they have been signed, it is the club for setting up this line up.

Sorry couldnt find the Conhillian appendix to translate it for you

Use it or loose it as it is your choice...

The fact of the matter is, people would rather lose it than be forced to tolerate sub standard entertainment and lack of value for money. Why would anybody attend for the sake of it when they aren't happy with what they are watching?

Could’ve saved some money and ran R/R for a handful of meetings. I thought the point would be for him to get to know the club and track etc ready for a full season. 

But the point was that there was still the opportunity to reach the play-offs and with Aaron Summers also out injured rider-replacement wasn't really an option - especially away from home. Didn't work out in the end but the effort was made.

Couldn't agree more

In all honesty I really do not know what to make of this Team like most I am a bit underwhelmed by it.. But on the other hand we have Etheridge, Jackobsen , Flint , Bickley , all young and hungry to do well so hopefully it might not be as bad as People think . I would rather watch the young lads having a go than a journey man going through the motions...

They’ve had reasonable offers to sell and turned them down... so not an excuse imo, if you’re losing money, sell it whilst you can? The team is over a point under the limit for goodness sake?

Well it looks like they took their offer down the A1 to BP

That's a good point. I am unable to remember him making a decent gate at Championship level.

Think you know that the admission fee wont go down. A price freeze is the best you can hope for.

With extra fixtures next season , the pricing of the season pass is going to be important can't afford to make it to expensive or they're going  to put people off  purchasing one
