Paulco Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 Bloody hell it doesn't take much for the usual civil war to break out these days . Let's just wish Kevin the best of luck tonight and maybe he'll do a lot better than recent Monarch guests that have donned the stripes . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X-man Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 It was plainly and unambiguously stated in my post :- Glasgow were unsure earlier last week about whether McGowan and Branney would be available, hence why they took the precaution to enquire as to Wolbert's availability should both be unable to ride. Aye but only a post made AFTER the abbott had pulled up on it. i dont know if wendy is a tiger or not but the original mischief posts trying to mis inform speak volumes more than our aparent sour grapes. nice try to deflect again but u were caught out fair n square by a newcastle fan on this one. the initial post was misleading and u both admitted after u knew it was because of other riders not being fit. Pity that wasnt mentioned til others pulled u up for it. but then why miss the chance of a dig eh? people might just have bought it if u hadn't been caught out.

It's a pity I mentioned the conversation in question but paranoia rules these days. I didn't expect certain parties to get all het up about it. Sad really! I too hope that Kevin Wolbert shows his liking for the Brough Park circuit. He has been impressive there in the past. Unfortunately I can't see Glasgow keeping it close even if he goes through the card unbeaten. But there again, haven't Glasgow won at Newcastle already this season?

Yes , but we were helped by having Craig Branney in for Mitchell Davey that day . And don't forget , results were all over the place in the PT . I don't expect lightning to strike twice and i wouldn't be surprised if today's result is something similar to yesterdays . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of us are not viewing this forum all the time so you erroneously presumed I had been following events. Rather than admit that you made up porkies about what I stated, you come up with the above drivel. No wonder it is hard to sympathise with Tigers plight when you turn your jealous venom on Merlin for mentioning the fact that Wolbert had been asked before Sunday about his availability for Monday if needed. It is also speaks volumes of your knowledge of the regs by being strung along by Abbott who knew fully well that Wolbert could only replace McGowan if another Tiger in 2 - 5 was also missing Well he certainly hooked a dumb Weegie this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulco Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 Calm down folks . So Kevin was sounded out prior to the weekend , big deal . Travis is struggling to sit on the bike at the moment due to a sore arse from last week's crashes . And John was 50/50 for the two meetings , so a guest was a distinct possibility . And as it turned out Joe crashed out yesterday and Kevin was needed . And what a fine job he is doing tonight as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordy21 Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 Well done to kevin wölbert on a good showing think he will annoyed he never beat larsen! He is a hard man to beat round his own patch! Can't win matches with really 1 rider scoring points but clearly a couple of Glasgow riders struggling with injuries!

Arson fire Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 What happened to Travis in Ht 10? He just slid off on his own, looked nothing really..didn't clatter fence or anything, maybe aggravated his injury and was holding his hand initially.

NJC71 Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 Not a great meeting which was only really kept interesting by Wolbert and his clashes with Larsen and Lemon. The Diamonds all did their job well. Deek is flying at the moment but it was nice to see Adam looking faster and scoring some decent points, albeit against modest opposition. Worrying to see Jason King strapped up and hobling arround on crutches. That looks like a potential season ender in which case it will be interesting to see if the Promotion stick with rider replacement or try and make a new signing. Have to feel for Glasgow. Wolbert was a fine replacement for Screen, but with McGowan and Graczjonek not fit and Dicken struggling they were never in a position to make a match of it.

A worrying state of affairs , especially with " you know who " to contend with on Sunday . I assume Dicken was awful again . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgl07 Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 A worrying state of affairs , especially with " you know who " to contend with on Sunday . I assume Dicken was awful again . To be honest, Big Lee has not looked up for it since the match at Armadale on June 4th. I don't know if the drop to reserve will do his confidence any good. He doesn't seem able to beat opposition reserves at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Lee was off the pace tonight I'm afraid. He was holding his arm after his third ride, don't know why as he didn't fall, perhaps he's carrying an injury. He made one decent start but McKinna passed him fairly easily. I'd be more worried about McGowan who is clearly not fit. Josh took a heavy first bend fall (similar to the one at Coventry tonight) and although he soldiered on he was clearly not right. No disrespect but Jake Anderson is not yet PL standard. It's a sad state of affairs when you see NL standard Australians riding in the PL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was factual. All that happened was that you nearly burst a blood vessel as you read it in your usual paranoid fashion as an attack on your beloved Tigers. I subsequently hypothesised on why Glasgow might have approached Wolbert as early as Friday for Monday's match something which you might have done had you not gone so ballistic. But it was nothing more than a hypothesis although I thought it might have been a credible one at that. I am not party to the thoughts of the inner sanctum at Glasgow speedway so who knows whether it hit the mark? It's a 'well done' from me too to the Diamonds who have not only climbed to second in the table but have narrowed the race points difference between themselves and Edinburgh over the weekend should it come down to a tie on league points. Well done to Wolbert too for a fine effort for the Tigers. He has certainly got back his late season form of last year. I sincerely hope that injuries are not going to play a major part in the race for the title which is still very much alive. Since Jason King was only considered 'doubtful' for last night's match I trust that his injury is not too serious. Some of the posts on here were a bit more alarming though. As for Glasgow what now? We have a big match coming up at Ashfield on Sunday and, from what has been said, they may have injury worries over McGowan, Grajczonek and Dicken, all of whom managed only three rides each last night. Presumably Joe Screen will be OK if his injury is nothing more than mild concussion (although that's not to be dismissed as of little importance).

Your post came across as yet another dig at Glasgow and you were caught out. Simples. Ballistic? oh dear if you think thats ballistic pmsl. hey at least i didnt resort to personal abuse, then u'd be saying i was suicidal pmsl Mod Note: locked as going nowhere and no one seems to be discussing the meeting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
