  1. He seems to have come into top form since David Howe has been spannering for him
  2. Very good atmosphere for the Glasgow part of the meeting. Watching from the third bend I couldn’t be certain there was contact, but people who had a better view said otherwise.
  3. Agreed. I was way up on the 3rd bend, but you could sense the tension and atmosphere. It definitely adds to the occasion.
  4. Is the track in that bad shape? I’d argue you get fewer riders injured on rain soaked tracks as they tend to take fewer risks.
  5. Glasgow obviously not desperate to get this meeting on for their own reasons
  6. Yep, you heard correctly. Big thanks to Steve Worrall who drew the winning number. Also, thanks to whoever chose my favourite number, meaning I had to choose my second favourite (winning) number. That’s next years season pass paid for
  7. Can’t imagine the rest of the side would be happy with a new signing coming in on better terms than they’re on. Pure speculation, no basis in facts. Move on....
  8. Five? Brum away, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Glasgow home and? Unless he’s eligible for the CLRC?
  9. With Glasgow’s league position I should think their fans will be flocking down, especially with a chance of seeing their local rivals beaten.
  10. Rye House had a system in place for double headers. Anyone wanting to watch the second half were able to enter the stadium at the single meeting admission price just before the end of the first half. Anyone entering before the first meeting paid the double header price. Bit hard on the fans of the team racing first, but I can’t see any other way of doing it apart from clearing the stadium after the first half, which would be a logistical nightmare. I can’t see how they’ll get 30 heats in before the 9.30pm curfew anyway.
  11. Third bend behind the nation flags is where you’ll find the committee.
  12. He insists he’ll be a long way away from the draw
  13. Strange old meeting in front of a sparse crowd on a windy night. If Scunthorpe started as they finished they’d be going home with three points. Only 4 points from NBJ’s replacement rides was a poor return. Announced that 65 of the 120 “5-1” draw numbers have already been taken up after just a few days.
