It's a sunny day at Armadale for the visit of Berwick Bandits in the League Cup. Start time is 7.30pm for a very important match for the Border Roofing Monarchs

Berwick have announced today a new signing to replace their broken leg victim Matic Vildrih and that is HYnek Stichauer from the Czech Republic. However, that signing has not come in time for tonight's meeting with the Czech making his debut next week.

That leaves the Bandits using guest, Michael Palm Toft, as a replacement for Voldrih this evening and that is probably a better option anyway.

Claus Vissing will be in Denmark on Friday evening for a Danish Grand Prix qualifier at Holsted.It will be a tough meeting with all the top Danes, apart from the Grand Prix riders, taking part. Rider replacement will give any other member of the Berwick team the chance of an extra ride.

Ben Barker has had another week to recover from his hand injury that obviously hindered him at Berwick last week but he will have to be at his best to gain advantage over the Border Roofing Monarchs top four of Cook, Masters, Sedgmen and Wolbert.
