Great to see Etheridge back in the points and the Bandit’s reserves very good once again. Rest of the team very poor and another disappointing result against a 5man Oxford. Big meeting at Brum through the week, anyone travelling? 3 Bus Loads of fans and several hundreds by car no doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We certainly won’t be next year if the Bandits are running and the team looks as bad as it does this season. We’ll pick and choose fixtures. I never thought TJ would live up to that 9 point average, but frankly he’s been pathetic. Add to that 2 riders racing with injuries and it’s gonna be a struggle. At least Hook is an upgrade on Stoneman Edited June 18, 2023 by Shadders 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BackstaightBandit Posted June 18, 2023 Report Share Posted June 18, 2023 Really unfortunate to fall just short last night against a much fancied Oxford team. TJ supremely unlucky with mechanical gremlins in a race where he superbly passed both Jenkins and Heeps. On the plus side it looked like a fantastic crowd and there was some excellent racing and I’m sure the lads will be desperate to make amends on Wednesday night at Birmingham. It’s all still firmly within our grasp and I think if we rally behind the team and promotion then anything is possible. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Normski Posted June 18, 2023 Report Share Posted June 18, 2023 One positive from last night was the performance of Jacob Hook looks a neat rider 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were Oxford not unlucky to lose a heat leader in heat 1 ? swings and roundabouts on the night Berwick weren't good enough to beat a 5 man team no more to say. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Promotion must be raking it in with fantastic crowds and streaming. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaColette Posted June 18, 2023 Report Share Posted June 18, 2023 Seems like Berwick drew the short straw with the fixtures. Unless Saturdays are difficult to get riders available when it is a popular night abroad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
