The rule may be stupid but its there. Its not the only stupid rule and in the star buster chapman says they will simplify the rule book for next year. But as speedace said too much being said about this rather than the great days ENTERTAINMENT as well as the right result

Agreed!We need the fans today to be our 8th man. amazed to read the diamonds have had to cancel there bus. This will be a cracker and I'm really starting to worry about the result. Steve Worrall loves the place, lambert should do well and kus has had some brilliant meetings normally when he feels he's been at the end of some hard riding and he'll get that today. Lingren always has at least one good ride and Viktor, capable of being brilliant . SO we need our top 5 to be on it, no dodgy engines or tape breaking. in the end it could come down to the reserves which make me think we'll just win

Thanks for revealing our master plan

Agree this will be our biggest test by far. Should have a good crowd, can even see monbarchs fans coming through for this. anyway hope your prediction is right

Totally agree. When you have 4 big hitters in your team they can't all score big points in every meeting. based on the star's latest Top 20 averages Richard is at no 2, Richie at no 5, Aaron at 7 and ben at 17 with a cma of 8.27 By the way well done all seven riders for a professional performance tonight.

And it is, now

Well done to all involved with the massive advertsing campaign in the city. hope it reaps its rewards!

well no ones started a thread yet, probably all too busy getting ready for the big meeting at armadale tonight, so I'll give it a go. A few weeks ago Redcar were only 4 points down after heat 12 before we eventually ran out winners by 12 points. They welcome back wee lassie bjerre who was out injured when we last raced so that should strengthen them or weaken them depending which lassie turns up. Both bellego and Andersen appear to have hit some form so they could do better but then again we have the benefit of Richie riding, r/r last time. be good to see some team speedway again and hope the crowd is as big as last weeks semi. Whatever the result, we'll win no probs, it should be another entertaining afternoon.

Good to see that Edinburgh have managed to put on such an attractive fixture on the 20th. That would have been the day of the british semi-final at Glasgow until Edinburgh objected because they knew they would have a fixture on that night. Hope they get a big crowd.

Thanks george

Where's George M when you need him. any photos from glasgow George to bring this thread but to reality

Shame about some riders pulling out. At least promoters advised us in advance.

Glasgow announced that bridger, Newman and Clegg won't be riding. Suppose that means monarchs fans will give it a miss 😱

Richard isn't tigers captain

even if we'd got a point tonight would have still thought we've no chance tomorrow and still do. Doesn't mean we are a bad team, we are a team that will reach the play-offs and that is what matters

Think you are right. Hope blobby and co keep talking down there team and monarchs fans decide not to come through. we saw what happens when there are only a few monarchs fans around in the league cup match, the monarchs riders didn't seem to give as much as you would have thought and we won easily

Well Berge let me down only got paid 14 . wasn't there but herd that aaron is waiting on some engines (?) so add 8 to his score and it would have ben a good effort from the boys.

Am not quite sure what you are saying they absolutely soaked the ttrack the day before and before the racing. it was a bit heavy on turns 3 and 4 but the times were fast and some races were competitive especially when they made the gate and the Summers pass was unbelievable

This WILL be our toughest meeting and no chance of a point. for those travelling think of it more as a pub crawl and just enjoy your selves

I've resisted commenting on this so far as my recent attempts at forecasting our home matches have been rubbish. Just think berge will come back and bite us with a full max and if so we are dead and buried. Hope I'm wrong

Well my forecast was a bit out. Have to say the reaction of the fans was good giving the team a great reception on the victory lap. Well done track staff, no dust problem just wish there was a quick way to replace punctured fence panels.

Think this could be harder than some people think. if the track is grippy Scunthorpe - Auty, Douglas and Davies will give it a go. Still think the tigers will win. Just hope we can keep the dust down - dust in your beer, not good

I'm pleased to see all the diamonds fans on here thanking Glasgow and their riders - barker, Richie and Victor (hopefully a nice loan fee) and not to forget henning who also helped, in a different sort of way
