I can't imagine etheridge having as bad a home meeting again, looked bit tentative after his injury. Can't help thinking be stronger dropping TJ and a 2 pointer for couple 5 pointers but that was just based on last night's performance may get it right. Dany Gappmaier or Busk Jacobsen if either wanted to ride in this country plus Dan Thompson instead of Jorgensen and Stoneman and get Knudsen to reserve before his average goes up too far.Wont happen as too early to make changes but would strengthen side at Shielfield at least.Suppose you have to give current side time though.Main problem still goes back to Jorgensen's 9.5 average knackering the whole team building. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about the other Knudsen? Seems to score just as well his brother in Denmark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ve just got to want to pass . The speed will put people off but not others. Track rather slick last night. To stop Harris doing his wall of death passing possibly. Glasgow we’re just too good last night end of. Harris is an exception at Shielfield and Greg is daredevil enough to pass NDL juniors.Name any other Bandits in recent years that can regularly pass better riders.Riders like Wright, Riss,Cook and otherNo1’s rarely get passed due to speed IMO.I’m not knocking the racing I actually though it was ok last night.Mr Barrie wets himself any night we get a couple of passes in 1 race. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonnybegood Posted April 16, 2023 Report Share Posted April 16, 2023 5 hours ago, screm said: The £20 admission across the board and all age groups is a scandal, I`ve said for along time that at Championship level £1 per race is more than adequate so the likes of me should be paying £15 with OAP`s etc paying £10. To ask anymore to pay more is just clouded business thinking and those promotions who do charge £20 across the board without concession seemed to be thinking lets screw what little customers we have left for as much as we can, lets face it most Championship crowds season on season are dwindling and moves like this will see one or two clubs at this level struggle, sadly I believe Berwick will be one. It is to be hoped there will be a reconsideration of this, time will tell. Many supporters I spoke to last night before during and after the meeting seemed to be of the same thinking, this season many will pick and choose the meetings and if last night was anything to go by if Berwick start losing at home they wont bother at all so to that end its played one lost one. I personally didn't renew my season ticket for the first time in the last five seasons, it seems many followed suit. The good news for Berwick is that they wont have to face a team as good as Glasgow every week, but a home defeat to Edinburgh and then Redcar will have some voting with their feet and what is sure is that nothing empties a stadium quicker than a few home defeats. As for the meeting, very impressed by Glasgow, after many years of trying and much money being thrown at it, I think this Glasgow has what it takes to become Championship Champions. As for Berwick a lack of heat winners and heat advantages at home just wont do and one look at the scoring charts will tell you where the weak links are, that will need addressing, either the riders need to change or the club will need to change the riders. Just a thought but generally the spectator numbers needs to cover the wages for the continuation of the sport at your stadium . If you want to deny the promotion the break even figure to save yourself a fiver to keep you happy it will possibly lead to this being the last season . If you cannot afford it stay home . It will cost you more than a fiver to drive to Edinburgh Glasgow or redcar to get your speedway fix if your club cannot survive . . Try telling the supermarket you want fillet steak but only want to pay for brisket . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly I think some forget bills need covering they may not have a great team this season but in general are a well run club.

You've got to work out how many concessions will pay the £7 increase or those that can't,get they need to cover costs but over 50% increase is steep and asfor staying at home there were loads that did just that,and if you expect fillet steak and only get brisket you're no going to be happy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
