This just illustrates the shambles speedway is in with doubling up out of control .

No we'll gloss over that kiss of death lol , I meant the standard of entertainment on track .

Was all a myth perpetrated by the forces of darkness

Seriously ?????? i'd love to watch every week what I watched at Somerset 2 weeks ago . Either a wind up , or a very bitter man with an axe to grind . A very daft post

Yeah kind of spoiled our fun him abdicating

Exactly , why cant we ever have clear cut rules and transparency to cover for every eventuality ? There's always this making it up as we go along scenario .

Josh Auty must hate Glasgow , because he looks a real quality heat leader every time we arrive at the Eddie Wright raceway .

At Glasgow last year he became a huge crowd favourite . Huge personality and had some decent meetings too . Top scored for Leicester at Rye House recently , so seems to have improved this season

Saw Richie ride for Somerset at the dump , erm definite Armadaleitus there

Ayres would be a good shout , riding well this year

Not unusual though , last season Ben Barker rode his final Glasgow meeting after being told he was being replaced

Yeah one of those silly individual fixture fillers , hopefully it's team only fixtures now until the end of the season .

Bit of frustration there , Andersen was very poor , on a track he usually rides quite well , before finally winning a race once the meeting was over a contest .

Blimey they usually have no problems in that department , apart from the one time Midnight Lady asked me if I could do it at an Edinburgh v Glasgow meeting at Armadale a few years back , and the Chatzone nearly exploded lol . I didn't have to do it in the end up

Yeah I realise that , in all likelihood he was genuinely ill .

No doubt there will be the (ahem , cough ) unbiased version of events on the Monarchs Chatzone

Sad , but life goes on , he surely cant use that as an excuse

Andersen is a typical Dane , they all learned from Nicki i think . Andersen also has history in that department , saw him and Baby Bjerre flicking the back wheel at each other at Peterborough last season , that resulted in a square go that day . He often flatters to deceive , first couple of times i seen him ride i thought he would turn out to be quite useful , but he seems to have plateaued as a six and a half point rider , certainly he showed not a lot last night till his final ride .

Poor Graversen . I was at Somerset a couple of years ago when Leigh Lanham collected the rider of the night award in the bar after a paid max against Glasgow - sacked a couple of weeks later . Guess who won it when I was at Somerset last Friday ?

Yep that's two meetings that his contribution has won now. Ok I know both replaced riders are injured , but it's only a matter of time before 2 pointers get pulled out of meetings for dandruff , or a broken flask and get replaced by Shanes . Riding in the top league , will his average improve any ?

Keeps the pot boiling , canny beat a bit of healthy needle especially with our two clubs up near the top .

The meeting was saved as a spectacle by that bit of needle as it was a pretty humdrum affair up to then . Our heat leaders were their usual reliable self , and Tom rode well and Dan was a bit unluckly mechanically . Jack continues to struggle , but he's work in progress so there's no issue there . Redcar really only had Barker and Garrity until Andersen upset Richard and they swopped recipes on the back straight . Heat 15 was the best race of the night by far

Oh well , is it or isn't it ? Still a bit on the wet side in Paisley , but as there's nothing definitive coming from the track , suppose I better just trust it's on .

Come on they're not going to concede that

Shane Parker was a wonderful ambassador for Glasgow speedway on and off the track . Took his bike into various schools , spoke to the kids , gave away tickets etc . Always approachable at the track , the ultimate professional
