That was the concensus of opinion in our group when it was announced, we shall see. It was more about not having two newbies to British Speedway in together.

Sam might struggle at 6 against the "better" reserves, but we'll see. Fascinating season ahead across on the West coast. Hope I can get across there at some point during the season. Unless they swap the reserves round, can only see Sam struggling after heat 2 against the 1/2 & 3/4 pairings, especially against Berwick. I'd rather see the two 2.00 reserves racing at 7 & meeting each other 3 times, better for their development. If I was Berwick, I'd now counter this by putting Borke at 7. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too bothered going to be an entertaining team, hopefully winning at home and gradually getting better away, some tough away fixtures this season . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After heat 2 it's irrelevant what number the reserves are at as they get swapped around more than a Kate Middleton photo 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neila Posted March 24 Report Share Posted March 24 Both the newcomers at 3+4 will imo surprise a lot of people, both looked good at practice and tate was never off his bike, seems to love being on a bike and a natural, a bit like a certain cumbrian GP star !! Time will tell let's enjoy this journey UTC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't happen that often when the weaker rider is "sacrificed" at number 6. Even if McGurk beats Hodder in heat 2, a couple of last places against Berwick's strong top 5 pairings,.could make it hard for him to get his 4th ride. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted March 24 Report Share Posted March 24 (edited) Sam may surprise me. I expected the weaker Dan T to struggle at 6 (Joe T at 7) on his first season, but he exceeded everyone's expectations. Same situation with Edwards at 6 (stronger Jenkins at 7) Edwards really improved. I really would prefer the Champ (& NL) to have the same number 7 rule as the Prem, better for British riders development.

I've heard or seen nothing to suggest they are going to start doing this but i would love to be proven wrong. Thankfully, I don't plan to miss many home games this season with it being on my doorstep 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

szkocjasid Posted March 25 Report Share Posted March 25 With it being Workington's first season in the Champ, plenty of opposition fans could be interested in visiting. Would streaming make enough to cover potential lower attendances? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marksman Posted March 25 Report Share Posted March 25 14 minutes ago, allthegearbutnaeidea said: Berwick don’t accept card but do live streaming A lot of clubs use a company called Infinity21, it requires a steady internet upload speed. Northside has nothing yet being isolated, believe it's somewhere on the openreach/Fibrus roadmap! Berwick being in a built up area (and being a football stadium) will have ADSL lines at the very worst, so could also have card payments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noelinho Posted March 25 Report Share Posted March 25 1 hour ago, allthegearbutnaeidea said: Berwick don’t accept card but do live streaming Yes, but the lack of card payments is, I believe, because they use WiFi, which doesn’t stretch to the admissions gates. You can buy your chips with a card! Maybe Stewart Dickson could put a WiFi access point on the tractor. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stewart is Jewson Bandits' team manager, by the way. Ian Rae is track curator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
