Berwick boss Gary Havelock has been quick to praise his men for their entertaining 47-46 win over Peterborough Panthers.
The former world champion said: “It might only have been a one point win, but what a win that was.”
The riders, added the team manager, dug deep and Havelock said the passing was fantastic.
He also praised Jack Parkinson-Blackburn who suffered hand and back injuries in a heavy fall. Havelock said he showed what a class rider he is before that.
The former rider also revealed that skipper Kevin Doolan was lucky as his throttle jammed at full revs down the home straight.
The riders behind him, Havelock said, did well to miss the experienced Aussie as he skidded into the first bend – minus his bike.
Meanwhile, Glasgow Tigers’ team manager Stewart Dickson said his top three riders looked good in their 53-39 home win over Edinburgh Monarchs.
He was pleased with the win but admitted that there were some wayward predictions ahead of the derby.
Dickson always thought a 12 or 14-point margin was what it was going to be and it was the manner of the win which pleased him.
Glasgow are currently third in the table with 55 points from 23 fixtures with Edinburgh fourth on 54 points from 26 outings.
Sheffield lead the race for the championship with 61 points from 25 matches.
