Paulco Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 In the unlikely event Winter has buggered off and let Spring out of it's cage , we will all enjoy our season opener at the Velodrome . As per usual it's that mob from along the M8 who first foot us , and a pretty tasty looking side our skint friends from the East have assembled . They had a bit of a setback when Sam Masters was refused a visa after Darcy Ward swapped passports when he wasn't looking , but they have moved quickly to replace him with the talented Claus Vissing . 3 o clock starts this season remember , as folk were complaining it was after midnight when they were getting home last year . And of course it's the new era at Ashfield with the new promotion in place . So i've no idea how both teams will line up , but i'll hazard a guess and let the know alls point out where i've went wrong . Glasgow Tigers 1 Joe Screen 2 Joey Ringwood 3 James Wright 4 Henning Bager 5 James Grieves 6 Harley Horwood 7 Joe Jacobs That Edinburgh Mob 1 The Cookie Monster 2 Desperate Deek 3 The Golden Child 4 Theo the popular Monarch 5 Crazy Claus 6 The dodgy German reserve 7 Tobacco Joe So thermals at the ready and lets hope we get our 2013 season underway . 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Blobby Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) Swap the golden child and theo the popular monarch around and your spot on. It will also be the first home defeat of the new tigger era. Edited March 27, 2013 by Mr Blobby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luluthetiger Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Tragic after all the great publicity generated on press day. Is it possible they have made a mistake, today was sunny with a wind. Good drying weather? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulco Posted March 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Tragic after all the great publicity generated on press day. Is it possible they have made a mistake, today was sunny with a wind. Good drying weather? From what i hear , no . They didn't dare put the tractor on the track at the press and practice day on Wednesday . And with absolutely no heat in the air to dry out the morning frosts , like our Edinburgh counterparts , another week is required to hope Spring appears . But you are correct , any new fans attracted to coming along , thanks to this week's intesive media coverage and the ice hockey presentation a couple of weeks ago , will now probably find something else to do . Any potential new fan to our sport must be totally mystified at how we are at the complete mercy of the elements . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
