Perhaps the resurrection of another ex rider on a 6ish average? Liam Carr? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac101 Posted January 8, 2022 Report Share Posted January 8, 2022 pretty sure they will have mason back he’s a great rider and he is also a club asset and rode really well last year ,being under the points limit doesn't matter for Berwick NL team it’s about giving their riders track time and having fun along with racing also with no pressure on them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure Mason Watson completes the team. They'll be 2 points under the limit, but I seem to remember Belle Vue going more than 2.5 points under the limit the year they discovered Dan Bewley, and that worked out alright!

Danny Phillips to replace Crang? 2 points under but with crang not on his correct average decent team really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandits4eva Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 We’re under the limit but remember.. this team lead the league until the final week… narrowly missing out to Mildenhall! All we have done is replace Ryan with Ace. We all realise it’s likely to be hard for Ace to start with but he will be giving time and support to enable him to develop I’m more than happy with the Bullets 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

szkocjasid Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 Looks a strong top 3, but has a very long tail with 4 x reserves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comments from the Luke Crang signing by Berwick: "Ladies and Gentlemen Luke Crang is back at Shielfield Park as a Grant Henderson Tankers Bullet for 2022 and he is determined to exchange last season’s silver medal for gold this year!" Luke adds: "I have every belief that this side has got what it takes to win the league" Obviously the riders want to win the league! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Islander15 Posted January 10, 2022 Report Share Posted January 10, 2022 Bullets are under the limit but it’s still a strong team. A very capable top 3 and always a handy senior reserve. The weakness are whoever is at second string but if that rider is struggling then I’m sure dropping to reserve will pick up their scoring.

Gringo Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 Berwick "Bullets" 2021 Season review in this week's Speedway Star. Out on Thursday 20th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crescent girl Posted February 1, 2022 Report Share Posted February 1, 2022 Bullets' fixture list offers three home stand-alone NDL matches, plus four double-header nights featuring both Bandits and Bullets. The stand-alone nights in April and May will fill blank dates in the CL calendar and provide regular speedway this season, hopefully allowing a continuity of Saturdays that hasn't been enjoyed at Berwick for quite a number of years. This alone makes last year's creation of the Bullets a worthwhile decision -- all the refreshing entertainment they provided in the process was a terrific bonus! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
