Makes my point about people's interpretations of single/sequential photos perfectly. -

Agree with your comments re track watering, I've got pics showing water on the track -

What I'd say to you both is what I posted on Glasgow FB page when asked my opinion of the Summers/Worrall incident ... "Picture sequences can sometimes be misleading. First picture isn't necessarily the start of the incident. Angles can also mislead" Show one picture to 10 people and you can get 10 different opinions. DSC 0446 - It could be said Wright is pointing to go across Lawson. Please note I said "could" as I don't post pictures to make a point. With Summers / Worrall my recollection is that Worrall looked like he was loosing balance. But, and it's a big but, if you've ever taking pics you'll know you don't really see the action. You're concentrating on getting the picture right. BTW - Flickr is a pain in the arse when uploading, pics don't always go in the order you want. Hence go by photo number to see sequences. -

Appreciate you're just having a bit of fun here Cyclone, no issues with that at all. As you weren't there yesterday, to help you understand it was an event filled day, it could even be said a speedway meeting took place somewhere within the 3 hours. Genuinely, there was hardly a heat that ran without incident. Mr Worrall, through his own actions, got himself onto the front and back pages of the paper. Bearing in mind he's a Glasgow supporters favourite based on recent performances in guesting for us, the crowd reaction to him in heat 3 tells it's own tale. The Lawson/Wright incident is inside news compared to many other things yesterday, so that might just be one of the reasons now one's mentioned it. Anyway, if you're interested here's some pics of it ... https://www.flickr.com/photos/glasgowtigersspeedway/? -

Yes, Gaz, we had our pants take down and our arses spanked by the better and more hungry team. No doubt. Worrall's post incident actions crossed the line, and I'll give Cyclone the benefit of the doubt as he's a reasonable poster ... on track racing incidents are part of the sport (whether right or wrong) ... violent conduct towards others can't really be compared with it. -

What about it? Too many oppressive people on this thread ... it should be closed down! -

Summers was well in front, until his abacus failed. -

Not there tonight, but going by the Updates looks like Kurtz has given Cook food for thought prior to the PLRC. I'm sure he'll respond appropriately on the night and we might see some cracking duels between the two. -

C'mon Young One! At least two posters have raised the issue of Ian's comments. Totally unprofessional and well below the belt. -

I can get what you mean, but I'd say deep down in him it's the total opposite.Take his post heat win celebrations at Cardiff. Other GP riders don't celebrate like that after a heat win. That said to me he rates himself below the others and it was a big win for him. -

The only people that can answer that question are the Glasgow promotion. But I know what you mean.I would have him in a flash. What I would point out to those Edinburgh supporters who understandably jump to the support of one of their own is see beyond the detail of each negative post. For me he is a great rider to watch, on his day untouchable in the PL, but what I and many others (I suspect) are saying is, we like our top, top riders to show the same class off the track as on it. I'd like to see him being a top EL rider (that way we wouldn't t need to face him 6 times a season ). I'd like to see him being a top GP rider. And as he appears to have missed that boat, you do feel disappointed for him. It's then you look for reasons, and whether relevant to on track success or not he doesn't seem to carry himself the way top GP riders do. What would be water off a duck's back to them, seems to be too high a priority to him. Quite simply, he doesn't know how to play the game. -

Not trying to be a smart arse here TheScotman, but he did praise it earlier this year on Twitter. Still on there.Have to question why he appears to post on Twitter about this particular track though? Ah come on Dekker, I didn't comment on his post content. -

Cook now making sarcastic remarks about the Berwick track and attendances. Mind you in fairness to Cook, Ian Rae does have a right good go at him. -

george.m replied to crescent girl's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
What amuses me about Facebook and Twitter is those people like Cook, Linekar, Ferdinand, etc who make posts and actually think their opinion matters. Do they think the rest of the World gives a flying whotsit, what they think? Full of their own self importance, but in reality ... Nobodies, deluded. -
