  1. They put themselves about thats for sure. Starke caused the accident in ht14 by running into Ayres when he had been left behind. Campton guaranteed to guest for BWD next week.
  2. Not seen or heard of Dishington for a while, wonder if he's been found out or perhaps absent for retraining.
  3. So could Worrall and Lawson if Lunna gets moved to 3 or 4 if required.
  4. GLA have still to go back to Edinburgh for a rained off PL fixture but thats the least important of what is to come. If we can schedule Worky away for this Saturday and get it run our fixture situation will become much clearer.
  5. Met Office forecast is no rain until 4pm but its just chucked it down for around 30 minutes. Interesting to read on another thread about Met Office getting it so wrong on many occasions, this being another.
  6. He isnt as dominant on big tracks like PB or the new BV. Watching him at BV he is reluctant to go right out wide in the mid to latter part of the meeting and at times will frustratingly stick like glue to the white line which leaves him vulnerable. Riding like that on big tracks isnt going to get him anywhere if he gets another chance in Poland. He may be better to try the second tier in Poland which is littered with PL standard riders which he could compete against and get himself better known. Having a try out once a year with Gorzow wont present much opportunity as a couple of duff rides and its door closed. I could see Cook switching EL clubs next year to one of the smaller tracks and coming back to EDI, milking the cash cow of easy heat wins to boost his finances and confidence.
  7. Perhaps but likely a whopping loss to the club with fans not turning out to watch this nonsense.
  8. Glasgow have switched Worrall to 5 and Summers to 3. Not sure i agree with it, the Worrall/Bach partnership works well.
  9. 1. Yes 2. Have a track grade 3. No 4. Yes 5. Maybe 6. Depends on the Somerset leg.
  10. Quite an enjoyable meeting despite the wet with heats run in quick succession. Glasgow's desire to win was tremendous with Lunna, Summers and Bach just never giving in. Ht15 was superb with Bach chasing Wells for 3 laps before going under him though may have benefitted from Wells goggles pinging off at the end of lap 2. Credit to all the riders for giving it a go with the categoric exception of Jensen who gave up before the first bend in his first two heats and pulled onto the grass. Hansen worked his socks off and Vissing let his frustration get the better of him at the end of ht13. Never say never but Glasgow should have safe passage through. Roynon seemed to have bike issues in the early meeting and Jensen was disinterested which counts for 5 R's.
  11. Not exactly looking forward to a classic meeting with Worky as visitors given their normal away record.
  12. Confirming any aspiration to ride at another level is gone and returning to milk the cash cow of endless easy heat wins at Arma.
  13. Superb! Four league points when you really really need them and Campton has a stinker. Doesnt get any better. Makes the EDI restaging less significant if we get it before the cut off.
  14. That was a massacre few predicted with little entertainment to view other than Garcia in ht14 stalking and getting Howarth on the line. Bates and Berge looked like reserves not coping in the middle order and Greaves wasnt at the races. Sissis was the only visitor to come away with any credibility. Garrity r/r scored 5 points much what he would have if he werent 'injured'. Its now 2 weeks to our next home meeting being disadvantaged by yet another shared event running at a weekend next Sunday. No tractor races today so proves someone is listening.
  15. If Garrity performs as normal at Ashfield he'll be on his arse at least once when leading a race. Narrow home win predicted.
  16. A lot depends on the team order with the new averages. Summers needs away from No1 but will he be replaced by Worrall or Lawson? Also will Lunna and Garcia switch places?
  17. In the early 2000's there was a pits altercation between a mechanic/ helper / hanger on and Peter Carr that resulted in the rider getting a broken collarbone. At the return fixture at Arma, Campbell declined entry to that individual. Perhaps this should be applied in this case.
  18. Isnt there a rule that you cant have r/r more than once for the same injury?
  19. Campbells' Armadale track specialists not quite good enough tonight. Looks another difficult night for Summers. With our next meeting a week on Sunday the new averages will be out which should see him move away from No1.
  20. Even if Jorgensen scored the same as Allen would have, Bewley got 13 more than Zac would and Wilson Dean was well off the pace. I agree if Somerset and Glasgow are to meet in the play offs it is the Somerset leg that would largely determine who progresses.
  21. Summers was inconsistent prior to moving to No1 and is a bit more exposed now. At the next set of averages it may be that Worrall goes to No1 and Lunna and Garcia swap.
