I would suggest the shoe is on the other foot

Aye but you still live in the dark ages where you believe ‘if you don't like it don't go’. News flash for you, people have stopped going. Money is hard earned for people and they aren't willing to just pay to watch garbage and a team with no interest in winning. Enjoy your evening, we all know nowt beats live racing at Shielfield for you ;)

So that was that, actually thought the track look reasonable especially when you consider the rain we have had yesterday and this morning, then the heavens opened and the track quickly became flooded.

Couple of things, massive thanks to the kind soul who handed my season pass in. I collected it tonight as I entered, once again thanks.

Dont know if it was announced but I found a bank card outside the stadium tonight, it was just as you approached the turnstiles.I handed it into the box who were going to announce it but probably never got the chance, I hope it finds its owner..

I always do. Mind you, I can't remember anybody from the club saying they had no interest in winning? But I'm in the dark ages, so you'll have to bring me up to date.

The Website is bit of a mess IMO.It doesn’t have last weeks result on the fixtures part.There appears to be nothing about Flint injury or replacement,It might be on the Facebook page though.( I don’t do Facebook or twitter)

Quite agree the website should be the priority not Facebook somebody was saying there was something about Scott's band on Facebook not sure if it was on the speedway page or not as I to don't do Facebook either.

It's because people are committed to the sport continuing in Berwick.  So hats of to something that creates this community spirit,to little of that these days. At least the promotion  make people feel part of something . Good luck tonight lads.

Most people, if not all, who volunteer do it for love of the club and the sport and are not doing it for any sort of input in to how a club is run very much a community spirit

Maybe this is an age thing? I would guess the majority of the younger audience, who the club are trying to attract, use social media like facebook. I must admit, I am on facebook, but very rarely use it, but I know it's a staple of most young people.

I thought Scott’s Band song was rather good which if it hadn’t have been on Facebook I wouldn’t have heard it

I used to use Facebook but one day got an obscene message from someone I did not know so I reported it to Facebook. They banned me as I had forwarded the message to them and they claimed that ,meant I had sent them an obscene message! They can shove Facebook where the sun doesn't shine as far as I am concerned these days.

I should've gone for a few beers like Gazc.

We were sitting in the beer garden with temperatures of 24 degrees all we needed was a pool and lager louts pi*sing in it and it could easily have been Benidorm.

Correct call it appears.

What other evidence do you need than to look at the team and most importantly the league table?

You are an alien right enough 

Lol yet again the sheep doesn't have an opinion of his own (no updates on the website yet telling you what it should be ?) so instead just tries to insult me. Behaviour of someone who's brain never managed to develop past the playground at first school.

The make up of the team is more to do with funds (or lack of), rather than any lack of ambition. If you don't have the money, you can't spend it. Plus this was basically the same team which missed out on the playoffs by a point last year. As for the league table, let's wait until we've ridden the same number of home meetings as other clubs.
