  1. Is he not rumoured for Poole? Not sure if the 2 brit rule has changed, you can't keep up with changes at times
  2. Does Workington not need 2 British riders in the team? They only have 1 at the moment with Vinnie.
  3. Never seen much track grading or watering during a meeting at Scunthorpe, other tracks tend to do a few during the meeting. I will say that racing is top quality at Scunthorpe, as it is at Workington , Redcar and Glasgow, these tracks alongside BelleVue are the best in the country
  4. Pairs before Cardiff was very well attended as was when they were at Somerset, fans that travel far like us from Glasgow always did the pairs before Cardiff, hopefully Workington will get a good crowd but will likely be fans from the North that will attend, also having the clrc the day after at Scunthorpe may affect crowd levels, which would be a shame as both are superb race tracks
  5. It is one resident who is a private tenant, all other homeowners are fine
  6. That made me laugh out loud, although IF Ashton has signed for Glasgow then I am delighted, have been following his progress since his first venture on a speedway bike and wanted him last year. He is undoubtedly talented and yes has had a difficult end of season, did appear to shut off going into the bends during play offs, however at Glasgow there was none of that, he beat bomber and that is no easy task, we need to remember that he has not long turned 17, has a lot of learning to do, and who better to learn from than Bomber, so my fingers are crossed that he will be at Glasgow. Also I do think that Oxford have chosen Killeen over Ashton recently, so maybe that is part of the reason he has changed his mind
  7. I really hope Plymouth can field a competitive team, I remember the days when we (Glasgow) struggled to get a decent team, thankfully due to our current promotion, riders now want to come to Glasgow, however I realise the rider pool is getting smaller year on year,no idea what the answer is. I would like the championship to have 2 x 2 pointers at reserve and give them at least 2 protected rides.
  8. I have noticed Ashton shutting off at times when in traffic, but it is not all the time, seems to be more when on inside gate, however in Glasgow's final match with Oxford he was mixing it and doing a bomber pass on the outside, he scored 12 from 4 rides, was excluded in his first for returning to pits. He is only 17 , I am quite sure he will be a top rider some day, his gating skills and speed are remarkable for his limited experience. I am sure if Bomber is his mentor then he will learn how to mix it without being injured.
  9. Very much doubt Glasgow are doing an NDL team, I personally would like them to have one ,but unfortunately any junior meeting we have had has been poorly attended even under 21 final
  10. Ridiculous that Oxford can hold the championship to ransom, let them run 2 teams and give us 2 home and 2 away
  11. Think it will be 40, certainly hope it will be. I suspect the powers that be want to delete championship to become a tiny bit better than NDL in order to make premiership look so much better. Despite the fact that championship has been the best league for many years. This deason has been a disaster fixture wise and the fact that particularly 1 club is against 2h and 2a because they run 3 teams is not good for the whole sport, let them drop their championship team or allow 2h 2a
  12. I think bridges have been burnt there when they were dropped at Leicester
  13. Their ambition for championship to be a tiny bit above ndl level
  14. I very much doubt Sam Masters would ever be at Glasgow, more likely to be at Edinburgh
  15. True, however another year with fixtures so far apart will kill us off quicker, if not a premiership then lets have a proper ndl team along with championship, I do realise that junior racing is generally not well supported at present but if it meant racing most weeks instead of 5 week gaps it may work
  16. We don't get many away fans as it is on a Friday, I am sure we would get some on a monday or thursday initially as very few premiership fans have been to Glasgow
  17. If Oxford can do it, why not Glasgow, our facilties are great and racing is top notch, we don't get the away fans that we used to, so that is not an excuse, although I suspect we could get a few to see riders like, Doyle, Janowski, Bewley etc, would be interesting to hear Tatum and his top draw racing when on tv if we had Basso and Harris
  18. Vinnie's girlfriend is one of the Glasgow volunteers
  19. Well done Workington on your 1st season back in championship, lovely set up there, you had a team with a few unknowns and coped well, to make the play offs was an astounding result and you may have gotten further if you had your full team without injuries. Hopefully you can get back some of the Derwent park fans and continue to do well next season. Believe it or not a lot of Glasgow fans were supporting you to do well, shame that there are 1 or 2 Workington fans dislike us, but for the most part you are a friendly lot. You have Steve Lawson who is very well thought off at Glasgow, you also have my fave rider Craig Cook and Claus is also loved by Glasgow fans. I look forward to some friendly rivalry next season.
  20. Would love them at Glasgow, but would they like the travel
  21. Probably but with Bomber, he has expressed that he wants to stay with Glasgow until he retires, loves the track, can't see him not at Glasgow
