Are season tickets valid for this fixture? 

Says on the back of mine valid for KO Cup first round so should be, won't be valid for Semi's and Final

I was slightly hopeful before last nights Glasgow meeting. Not at all hopeful now after the carnage of this week. 

Berwick have certainly had some cruel luck this week, for tonight Aaron Summers, as guest is an equal for Leon flint so Berwick wont lose out much there. Seems that Etheridge is ready to ride tonight as well as Pijper, much will depend on their fitness as to how close Berwick get to clawing back the 12pys, personally I see it as to much even with a fully fit team so with a weakened team I see nothing other than Redcar going through.

Perfect weather though.

I'm not sure about Jye riding?     The team has been re-jigged and declared this morning with Spud at #5 for Reggie, and r/r at #3 for Leon.      Bomber, Jonas and Theo all took heavy knocks last night, but are ready to race.    

In addition to the knocks and bruises -- only Nathan Stoneman wasn't involved in a heavy crash at Ashfield -- there are several badly-damaged bikes to be straightened and repaired before 7pm.      No rest for the wicked!

Onward and upward!

All the guys need to be 100 percent, don't want anybody having a couple of rides then withdrawing,need to bring their A game.

When we won the cup way back in 1980 we had 3 riders out with injury so it is possible tonight to overturn a 12pts deficit

Ah yes. The meeting raced at Brough Park, as the Bandits were homeless. And Nig Close took Steve Wilcock off, and should of been excluded. Not that I am still bitter about the 29th October 1980. Lol.

Time to let it go I think :blink:

Loads of Old School Middlesbrough fans still reminice about that final. Havelock missed the 2nd leg at Ruff Park. He had a pre arranged holiday booked to Majorca. Because Close started his career at Cleveland Park as a very raw novice. Made the incident harder to accept.

I remember heat 2 - our two novice reserves roared off in front, I thought 'this is ok'. IIRC they were both on their arses soon after. It was hard to swallow at the time, things never seemed to go well at Brough

What was hard to swallow was the track staff trying to drag the riders off the track as they were trying to remount.

Is anybody connected to the management going to answer this question.

This is taken from the Berwick site regarding season passes so I would guess yes

2022 Season meeting passes are valid for 13 Bandits (including KO Cup Q/final second leg) and 8 Bullets Scheduled Home Fixtures exclude KOC, Play off and Individual and Shared Events progression)
