Championship Pairs Oxford 16th August 2024
ragdoll64 replied to Triple.H.'s topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
For me, that was the deciding factor. Nicholls made a clean pass but because of his steering angle he was scrubbing off speed and therefore suddenly travelling slower than Wright, leaving him nowhere to go. -

I watched on BSN with all the replays. Was a massively tough decision for the ref but the rules say someone has to go and as far as I’m concerned the correct call was made under the circumstances. Wright was committed on the outside and had nowhere to go. And if anyone says the throttle works both ways….they don’t understand speedway. -

The way things are going we might soon see riders riding for different teams in the same meeting…….lol -

Massive home win I would think…… -
Glasgow Tigers vs Poole Pirates 26th July
ragdoll64 replied to lbw's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
We’re we not told that he would probably have been back at Glasgow this year if he hadn’t intimated that he might not do Championship level?…….then it was too late when he made up his mind as the team build was already started. I, personally was/am disappointed that he never returned. Yes, he went off the boil a little at home but it was plain to see he was one who was going to progress massively. -

No, you’re quite correct, it IS Glasgow we’re talking about…….no apparently about it. -
In my opinion we’re witnessing the best speedway ever seen on a Glasgow track…… but what could be regular fantastic enjoyment is being totally spoiled by these outrageous sporadic fixtures. It really must be having an effect on attendances and needs to be addressed for next year.

Berwick v Glasgow CL 22/06/24 7-00pm
ragdoll64 replied to Normski's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
WOW!!!……Yes, there’s always been booing and pantomime villains and I’ve been happy to be part of it…….but it was the unwarranted blinkered and aggressive reactions from some newbies I was alluding to. Didn’t mean to upset you……lol -

Yeah, and Hagon getting booed on every appearance from then on. It would be really interesting to see what the reaction would have been if Hagon had been guesting for us and a similar incident had occurred. Some really blinkered, one sided supporters going about these days. As Paulco says, football type fans. -
Glasgow v Berwick CL , 21/6/24@19-30
ragdoll64 replied to Paulco's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Personally, I didn’t think Hagon did anything wrong and the correct decision was made. He was holding a tight line and I felt Pijper leant heavily on to him. Just my opinion…… -

Wow……and I thought that was just JP having some practice laps. I’m excited now….. -

I can’t remember what he said but at the time I momentarily wondered…..did Michael Max just hint something about Riss? I could have picked it up wrongly though. -

ragdoll64 replied to Paulco's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
It’s not just that he isn’t going to pass that’s annoying …….he doesn’t even make up any ground when behind. Yet, when he’s in front, he can stretch out a lead. Frustrating to watch but as said, can bang in important points. -
Watching the “big” riders doesn’t necessarily mean entertainment in my opinion as can be seen by some of the crap we sometimes witness on Eurosport. Last Sunday’s under 21 final proved that Ashfield can produce fantastic racing without the need for big names. I’ve never been a fan of leaving the championship due to the possible pitfalls you’ve mentioned.
-
Not the slightest hint that the management are pondering options. Is it really an early exit for us on the back of a championship win?
-
Thank God for that…….lol
-
I really thought Zischke would have been on Glasgow’s radar over the winter. He was certainly on my personal team building list.
-
Bet he understands the track when he comes calling with Poole………lol. I’d gladly have kept him this year……and was it not due to the fact that initially he intimated he might not do the Championship that he wasn’t signed?
-
I’d assume the likes of Keynan Rew is too tied up in foreign leagues? I see he’s on a 4.00 average in the Prem. Don’t know what the current conversion is.

Tough one…..
