Paulco Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 The " for sale " signs hanging up outside the stadium , last week's draw against the Rebels all but extinguished play-off hopes , the Monarchs building up a head of steam to look top 6 candidates . It all adds up to an air of depression hovering over Saracen Park this coming Sunday . But there's still a little matter of a speedway meeting to be won and an entertaining looking visiting side to do battle with . We welcome the Witches to Ashfield this week and are another side trying to fight their way into the play-off places . They have a interesting mixture of youth and experience , so will be hard to overcome . I'm a little disappointed the exciting Cameron Heeps wont be in their line-up . Sunday's teams are - Glasgow 1 Joe Screen 2 Mason Campton 3 Josh Grajczonek 4 Henning Bager 5 James Grieves 6 Charles Wright 7 Filip Sitera Ipswich 1 Taylor Poole 2 Dakota North 3 Leigh Lanham 4 Matt Tressarieu 5 Rohan Tungate 6 Tom Young 7 Morten Risager Impossible to predict with any confidence about how this meeting will go , but i hope we can secure the three points .

MD Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Another tough one, hopefully as exciting as Somerset last week. I don't think Ipswich will be a strong as Somerset though we have to get going right from the start. Josh conceded two 5-1's in his first two rides last week, hopefully someone has had a word for this one. Mason also can't be any worse than last week though the Witches may just take a point.

Topcat Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Something for the Tigers to get their teeth into. Will be interested in Rohan's return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aljack Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 The "For Sale" sign at Ashfield Stadium sounds a big worry and will put a depressive feel to the rest of the season and my thoughts are with you Glasgow fans and hope all ends up ok. As to the result suppose thats secondary to Glasgows future but I expect Glasgow to win as the Witches team looks totally lop-sided to me with riders riding out of position and another cheap guest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bash Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 So come on Aljack seeing as we have to use a national league guest to cover Cam as that is the rules, which cheap guest would you call up from the national league? And before you name them check to actually see if they are actually allowed to guest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Hopefully the Witches take heart from a really good effort last night and carry that forward to today. If so I can see a Witches win by 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulco Posted August 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Beautiful morning . We are due some rain later , but it doesn't seem to be as threatening to the meeting as what was forecast yesterday . So all systems go for what should be an interesting meeting . What was the problem with Taylor Poole at Workington last night ? Is he struggling for fitness after his long lay-off ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its taking a while to build up the muscle in the arm and he is struggling particularly when its grippy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was the problem with Taylor Poole at Workington last night ? Is he struggling for fitness after his long lay-off ? Taylor has an average of 6.90 on coming back from injury and due to the experienced riders in the Witches team totally underperforming he found himself at no1. Taylor is a super lad who listens to advice and has a great future but a no1 he aint and should never have found himself there its a disgrace and his form has suffered accordingly.

Much more cowardly to sit at the computer and slag the same old slag, time and time again, and show what a berk he really is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
