Visitors this Sunday to Ashfield in Premier League action are the Berwick Bandits, fresh from their home KO Cup win v Edinburgh on Wednesday night.
The meeting also sees the return of two Tigers riders after injury, the first being Christian Henry after his knock at Ipswich recently. Good luck for Sunday Christian.
Of course it is also the long awaited return of our young French star Dimitri Berge, who has been out for three months since his accident v Peterborough at the end of April.
Dimitri has been back in Scotland recently to prepare his bikes and equipment and he tells us that he is READY TO RACE for Tigers again , starting against the Bandits and fellow countryman David Bellego on Sunday.
ALLEZ ALLEZ Dimitri!
In Dimitri’s absence our Tigers have continued to improve and we also come off the back of a solid home win against Sheffield last week so all the guys are up for a tough meeting on Sunday so come along and find out if we can get all three PL points.

New Fixture
After considerable efforts we are pleased to announce a new Monday night fixture.
It is on Monday 4th August against Scunthorpe Scorpions and tapes go up at 7.15pm.
We would like to thank the Scorpions management for their assistance in making this fixture happen and this alleviates our fixture backlog to some degree.
Put it in your diary and see what the Monday experience will be like on 4th August.
Food Bank Campaign
This Sunday will see the last chance to donate to the campaign at Ashfield.
So far in July, Tigers fans have given generously to the cause and along with our Print Media Partner the Evening Times, we are delighted at the response.
So thank you very very much.
Right then, let’s see if we can continue our recent improved form against the Bandits on Sunday and we hope to see you there.
Mon the Tigers!
