  1. Here we go, just saved the cost of a winter conference in Tenerife. The new rule. This rule supersedes previous ones. Please delete them. (That's the button that says "Delete") Before the tapes go up, sit f4ckin' still - no fidgeting Don't even think about rolling - this applies especially to you two - Sarjeant & Cook When some numpty ignores this and there's a false start As soon as red lights come on, pull in clutch Sit on yer arse Do not stop engine Then, like a four year old learning to ride a bike, put feet on ground I said .... "Sit on yer arse!" Good! Now move one in foot in front of the other and push bike back to start line It goes without saying, you choose the shortest round back to start line Do not pass go, do not collect £200. Job done!
  2. Exactly. You had plenty of time to get your bike ready before the false start. My God, it's only been 2 minutes since you left the pits. I can't see a justifiable reason for it. Unless of course it's as case of: 1. OCD 2. "Missing you already" 3. This is Possil, I need to check my wallet and/or brown envelope is still in the pits. Get on with the racing!!!
  3. Thanks. It wasn't that heat. Can't remember for the life of me which one it was.
  4. James got a flyer in one heat and all 4 pulled back. From where I was standing he wasn't moving prior. Maybe his history coming back to haunt him?
  5. Awh no FB, please don't feed me lines like that. Can't resist ... Harkess heroes are tossers Chumps caned by Cookie the chimp.
  6. Must have paid our bill this month, all loaded now. Apologies there's not more ... had two newbies today and spent most of my time trying to explain the rules of our wonderful sport! As one said ... "So they just make them us as they go along then!" Felt myself inwardly agreeing.
  7. A few pics from Heat 13 Lawson/Cook. Not saying for one minute the start was the reason for their after heat "discussions", though it was the only thing I saw during the race of any contention. Cook lined up on edge of his position next to Lawson. More meeting pics to follow overnight as broadband here is so sloooooooowwwwwwww. https://www.flickr.com/photos/glasgowtigersspeedway/sets/72157654565631421
  8. Ignore him Paul, he never says anything of any worth to respond to. Always on the wind up. Just trying to get some street cred with his pals probably.
  9. Too many of our riders just don't now how to pass from the back at Cashfield.
  10. Ah well, the tapes worked today. That and Rich Lawson's form the only positives from a Tiger's point of view. Can't take anything away from the Monarchs .. they bounced back from Friday night and out gated and out fought us. Perhaps Facecook taking it a bit too far though. With a guest for No1 rider and R/R for another it was always going to need our guys to dig deep and I'm afraid to say some just didn't turn up. Congrats to Edinburgh and enjoy your win. Youngy ... all I'd say in reply, is that you're used to beating us at Cashfield regularly (justifiably) but for a wee team like us to beat the Champions and some of their smug supporters (not yourself nor most on here) on their own trick track means much more to us than your win today will ever mean to a smug. No matter what happens between our teams in the future we'll still always have ... THE HUMP AT THE DUMP!!
  11. Glasgow's actions that night were indefensible. I was there and honestly, the Glasgow fans were raging! Like everyone else, we'd paid good money that night. But of course it comes up in Derby time banter, as does Burgergate, and long may the banter continue!
  12. Credit where it's due. On here and in the media the Monarchs have been magnanimous in their assessment of last night. Good on you. Let's hope for a good crowd coming through from Edinburgh tomorrow, mucho friendly banter, sunny weather, good racing and everyone going home safe. PS And 15 heats of tapes working! http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/speedway/tigers-have-their-tails-up-after-dethroning-monarchs-1-3801186
  13. All Tigers fans must be eagerly anticipating this one after Friday night's "HUMP AT THE DUMP". As the Smugs roll into town (or at the starting gate) the Derby Double is on the cards for the first time in 4 years. With the added incentive that a home win will see the Chosen Ones leapfrog the Champions in the league table. Does it get any better? A big Tiger crowd expected for this one ... remains to be seen how many from the East make the journey, or remain at home still licking their wounds. Weather forecast looks favourable ... sunny with a small shower from the East expected 2:30pm. Not sure what the line ups will be, are Glasgow announcing Kozza's replacement tonight? Will he feature tomorrow? TIGERS 1. Nick (Assuming the flight's on time) 2. Dimitri 3. Richard (Who can't ride Armadale then?) 4. TBC 5. Aaron 6. Victor 7. James MINIONS 1. Sam 2. Rob 3. Two Kevs 4. Justin 5. Facecook 6. Max 7. Erik Think I've read there's a collection for Kozza, so raid your piggy banks. http://www.monarchs-...ad.php?tid=5812 http://www.edinburgh...cle.asp?id=2080
  14. Possibly not screm ... expect revenge smugness by the barrow load! http://www.monarchs-...ad.php?tid=5812 http://www.edinburghmonarchs.co/news/article.asp?id=2080
