Correct . I went home reasonably happy. I’m sure the promotion at Newcastle would have been rubbing their hands with the amount of Berwick fans swelling the crowd and the burger van. Overall a tight meeting and the winners take the spoils. Can’t run without a crowd bringing in the money. 

burgers were good cuz chilli sauce a bit potent hahaha

Whinging ? We got a point with 5 riders at a track where we normally come away empty-handed

A point at the single worst track in history, with overpriced burgers, dodgy injuries and a shocking crowd, no less. Or so they say.

They had to cancel the junior match as I believe senior riders advised the youngsters that they considered the track unfit.The ref must have agreed.

Presumably Berwick +/- the ref could put in an official complaint/report to BSPA about the track etc to be totally ignored by the powers that be.

Just like to congratulate both teams for providing an interesting match last night. It will certainly stick in the memory for all sorts of reasons.

Also thank you to the young man who fixed the airfence as  he had a big problem fixing the connectors to the panels.

I asked earlier… was told it was to do with Starke’s silencer! I imagine though as it seems issues went in after the race that not a jot will be done even if there was something! 

Silencer was ok as the ref & machine examiner's had a look at & it all got a bit handbags at 50 paces ha when Gary flint ran to the phone but accidentally bumped into my mate & there was a few voices raised but that was about it

Track can’t have been that bad as Wells and Harris scored double the points they did when guesting for the Diamonds. Had they scored those points then, the Diamonds would likely have two more home wins.

Heard there was a crack but they couldn’t tell if it was done before the race or during… 

There did seem to be a hoo-ha… tell your mate to settle doon and keep out the way next time :wink:

I don't have great eyesight to be honest.

A haven't got great eyesight either, and TBH a was surprised that Harris didn't get the verdict over Starke. But feel it's a shame that after good ground-out result from the Diamonds, who obviously need it, the thread has be tarnished by some fans whinging about just about everything!!! ;)
