Doing well. Good to see the two pointers improving, Coles as well. 

Atkins is rubbing Garry May's face on the dirt with every point he is scoring 

Dumped him at Somerset, dumped him at Plymouth. 

The kid has always had ability just needed the right environment. 

We'll done Oxford

Young Atkins was probably Oxford`s match winner.

Jorgensen has been bitterly disappointing.Forgetting the average thing I though he would do Ok.

He was signed on an unachievable average, started the season as No1 and now finds himself as second heat leader.

He has won one race at home this season, one, and but for Ryan Douglas`s engine failure he wouldn't have won that one.

Forget the average nonsense( killing the sport IMO) even you would not have had him as a terrible signing .He is terrible though for some reason.

A 5-1 that keeps Berwick in the top 6! 

Certainly makes Birmingham on Wed a vital fixture to stay in top 6.I reckon Edinburgh if they get their 2 heatleaders back would be favourites for the last place in play offs.Think Cook might have went AWOL though with the silence about him.

Jorgensen was a poor signing at the start of the season, and he`s getting steadily worse. This wouldn't be tolerated at most other clubs.

He should still be a 7 pointer. It's acceptable losing to Oxford big 3 but shouldn't be scoring 1 against their bottom 4 imo. But yes 1 point from your number 2 shouldn't be tolerated anywhere

You'd surprised! But I think it depends who the rider is and the strength of relationship they have with the club's management.

Disagree with the second part of that comment, Atkins walked away from Plymouth, they didn't want to drop him (from either team). I agree Atkins is riding well for Oxford, but his form isn't an "I told you so" to anyone.

It looked as jorgensen was flying in the race he retired in passing both riders so not sure if was on 2nd bike after that as looked terribly slow.

Henry Atkins match winner for Oxford, rode the inside brilliantly on bends 3 and 4 which you very rarely see at Berwick.

Great result for Oxford, but Kinsley’s form is a little concerning in my opinion. He started well, but seems to be struggling at the moment, and is a definite weak link. With no sign of a Killeen return any time soon, I just hope it doesn’t come back to bite Oxford in a close match.

That was poor all round from Bandits.Oxford lost their 3rd heat on the first bend and it was still not a last heat decider.Deary Me.Don’t think even the most ardent Bandits  fan think Nichols and Masters would have been on the wrong end of a 5/1 if it had mattered.

Riss had gated and was leading heat 13 when it was pulled back for masters jumping the start. Nicholas with a flyer in the re run and got away with it.

Oxford riders both moved in heat 14 and got away with it (got my program wrong as had hook in 3rd place also).

Scott said he was disappointed along with Sam about missing a maximum as you like to get maximums especially away from home. He said the fuel cap he lost during the race had no bearing on the heat result.

Think if you watch the stream you will see that Nichols never moves till the tapes went up but TJ is that slow to react that it looks like a flyer for Scott.
