28.7 miles Gazc. Get it right up them.

The bold THJ wouldnt lower himself for tier 2 speedway in Britain. Besides he didnt like Armadale and was elsewhere most Fridays when he was in their 1-7 a good few years ago now. He really has fallen off the radar or perhaps more likely found his level.

With a middle order of Campton, Proctor and Roynon there'll be more zeros than the national debt away from Derwent Park.

Having a contract in Poland and riding in Poland are two separate things.

Is that as an alternative to waiting in an NHS queue and not being fit for March?
-
Just shy of 30 miles apparently.

How many times will he tell you the new engines are coming!

Wolbert now needs a victim club for 2017 to drop 2 points from his average and confirm his return to the Dale the following season.
-
Great potential is the key. Last year that came from Worrall and Bach who were arguably our best and most consistent pairing, and offered good value on their starting averages.

Thats an understatement. Whoever we sign as No3 in the averages will determine how long our tail will be.

An absolute trier capable of improving but now seems saddled with a 5 point average representing a waste of a point on his actual average. Needs a period of recuperation to get over his injuries and reinvest in equipment. Be good if he got a team place sorted, particularly Berwick as he generally goes well there.

Will be superb though i wonder why placing it over the old tote board on bend 3 wouldnt be a better option.

Sounds a good move to a Saturday. Im sure the owners will have undertaken a sensitivity analysis and worked out it benefits more people than it inconveniences. It will clash with Braehead Clan but only really in September & October. The Clan dont always play on a Saturday at home anyway, I've already been to a Friday match and they do have periods on the road when arena is being used for something else on a Saturday. Public transport wont be an issue for the train anyway, the service remains every half hour from Queen Street and back on a Saturday with the last train from Ashfield at 23.34. I think we are getting a bit desparate quoting riders travel departure times. By moving to a Saturday we are hopefully increasing the number and scope of riders potentially available to sign. However the biggest hurdle may be getting it voted through the AGM. Wonder how our near neighbours would vote!

Glasgow V Newcastle Ko Cup Final 2nd Leg Tonight 24/10/16
MD replied to jawajoe's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Superb meeting once it got going after ht2. Lambert was excellent as he couldnt gate and had to work his way through traffic, made all the more spectacular under floodlights. For once the outperforming guest reserve was on the home side and he didnt disappoint. Thought it was poor of Michael Max asking each rider if they wanted to return. Bach was clearly uncomfortable and may not want to return for a full season but prefer to do as this year and return to the UK in May/June. It is obvious that each of the top four cannot return anyway and putting each rider on the spot like that was unfair IMO. -
From the city centre the easiest option might be by train from Glasgow Queen Street to Ashfield which only takes 5 minutes and is a further 5 mins walk from there to the stadium. Looks like the service is half hourly in and back. The buses from the city centre dont run past Ashfield as far as I know, you would have a fair walk from Saracen Street to the stadium on FirstBus No75. If you dont know where you are going its not an area you would really want to get lost in.

We were starting to slide but the previous home defeat to Somerset when we tried to manipulate the track has shattered us. Self destruction! We were immense at Sheffield IMO to keep it close in the first leg and should have finished it off at home but the confidence in the lower order isnt there. Best wishes to Sheffield.

On another night we could have made it closer. Lunna snapped a chain on a Glasgow 5-1 to make it a 3-3. Ht8 Auty never made the 2 mins but wasnt excluded and ht11 Sissis did a circuit back to the pits for no reason when the 2 mins had expired when all 4 riders were sitting at the tapes, again no exclusion. Starting to wonder if MacGregor has been spoiling us. Eight points should be good enough, job done for the GLA Tigers to keep it less than 10 and a decent night's entertainment in South Yorks.
