  1. Some people take life far to seriously !
  2. Don't think any rider will sign for another club till Glasgow name their full squad " just in case"'!!!!
  3. Hope it is just to buy a watch !!! Would rather have Granty Sen than junior and M Courtney .Looks a decent team though !!!!
  4. The 3 riders they sign with the highest average at this present moment.!! Havvy might be our No 1.
  5. He was sensational in Finland last season!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  6. Class rider but temperament suspect when things are not going right.Imo.
  7. It getting beyond a joke if aGP rider is assessed as a 9 .Its pretty obvious its cost cutting exercise ,It should have been 1 big league with 1 over 8 and promote NL riders into reserve positions for the future IMO.Wonder what admission costs will be for Premiership.
  8. Maybe is the right word, I have see a lot of good youngsters who never fulfilled their promise.You need a fair bit of luck in Speedway.
  9. What chance he ever rides for Berwick though,slim IMO .Berwick should have signed him and loaned him out if we are thinking to the future,although granted he might not want to ride for them.Wish him all the best though.
  10. Think this is where the AGM has fallen down badly,it only publishes Major changes in the sport,It should put out a statement of all changes discussed at Conferance within a couple of weeks.They are probably still arguing among themselves over " interpretation " of the rules as usual.
  11. Glasgow are Promoting the sport in aProfessional manner,and should be applauded,they can only build their Team to the points limit irrespective of what they want to pay their riders,I certainly don't have a problem with that.They have not had a lot of major success in the last 2 seasons with their so called "big money riders" which proves how fickle the sport is with injuries etc.Teams on paper doesn't mean everything in this sport.Plenty riders have " followed the money" in their career and good luck to them if it works out.Other Teams would do they same if in the position the Tigers find themselves in.Lets face it Edinburgh have always had some " high profile signings" over the years,and it certainly not the attendances the pay their wages.Its Sponsership .
  12. If the rules are relaxed over starting procedures,I would likes to see any who touches the tapes excluded with no replacement,that would soon sort out tape touchers and give the other Team an advantage for the misdomeaner.
  13. Cant remember him passing anybody anywhere!! ,he is a good gater though!
  14. Winning an Individual Meeting is hardly aTeam effort.Maybe you should have said your Bandit.
  15. What did Bandits win more that teams near top of Table?!!!!!
  16. Matea Ferjan (spelling!) did he not ride inGP
  17. Just an update,spoke to the Duty Manager at Meadowbank tonight he thinks the Craven Family will be contacted and have first refusal on plaque.Notice it was donated by The Veterans Speedway Riders Ass,That's all from me.
  18. It does,but I am talking about rules just before Black and White double points.(could be wrong though).
  19. You will know Mike' s contact feel free to contact him,Thanks
  20. Totaly of the subject but thought this might be the place to attract Mike Hunters attention.Mike did you know that Meadowbank sports centre is closing to the public on 3rd Dec .And being demolished.Wondering about the plaque to Peter Craven which is situated in the building ,what will become of it.
  21. Dont think that is correct.Before the Black and white double points rule,there was only a max of 2 Tac rides .
