Berwick v Scunthorpe KO Cup 1/4 Final 1st Leg 27/04


Recommended Posts

Berwick take on an inform Scunthorpe side managed by former Bandit David Howe. hoping for a good lead to take down to Scunthorpe for the 2nd Leg. Berwick TM has again changed things around from last Friday with Danyon back at number 2 Drew 4 Rory 5 and Jye3. Richard Lawson once again guests for the sidelined Lewi Kerr. For Scunny Jack Smith guests for Nathan Ablitt. Scunthorpe have a number of riders who can ride Shielfield well but i think with Berwick a little bit stronger at reserve we wil get a result. 1989 was the last time we won the KO Cup so we are hopefully due a good cup run. Prediction 52-38.

Hard to predict this one,you never know what your going to get from MTP or Jake Allen.All 7 Bandits will have to be on their game though if we are too progress.

Drew Kemp has declared himself battered, bruised but fit to face the side with which he raised the cup last season. But Jye Etheridge will be forced to cheer his team-mates on from the sidelines. His absence will be covered by rider-replacement with all bar guest number one Richard Lawson able to cover the Australian’s rides. Taken from Club Website.

Speedy recovery for Jye, hope Drew manages all his rides tonight, Very unlucky last night, think we need a 10 to 12 point lead hopefully R/R will do okay.Unfortunately can't attend tonight as at the Kelpies for the Red Hot Chilli Pipers and Callum Beattie hope a safe meeting for all.

Can understand Jack Smith's frustration there , that was a ridiculous amount of time to hold the tapes

I'm sure Berwick fans will be pleased with the contributions of Schlein, Kemp, Hume & Borke, but they only scored 4 when replacing Etheridge. Now imagine the slating Jye would've gotten on here if he only scored 4!

Happy with result is all that matters.

Not a bad guess

Scunny are going to have a job on pulling that back bit I wouldnt rule them out.

Good to see Kemp has found somewhere that he can produce consistently, perhaps he is finally about to realise his potential.

Still not using an automated start similar to issues with the transponders.

Decent meeting before the track dried out. I reckon a 20 point lead would be good to go to Scunny with. Not sure if 18 is enough, but it’s sure to be a cracker
