racers and royals Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 A lot closer than many predicted. Anyone able to shed any light on the comment on the Updates forum that there's been a "declaration" that Glasgow might not be running next season? Necessity for an air fence probably-financing it that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george.m Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Necessity for an air fence probably-financing it that is. Have seen nothing else on internet including Facebook and not surely about reliability of source (no offence). Wasn't at the meeting today, so don't know if it was a story doing the rounds at Ashfield or something else. You could be right about air-fence, however fund raising for this appears to be planned. Would be devastated if it came to fruition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away and troll elsewhere, ya weirdo. Now that is an opinion! Have a day off Trigger! Edited August 18, 2013 by george.m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewbacca Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Just a shame this match has destroyed any semblance of competition in the test match at Newcastle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone able to shed any light on the comment on the Updates forum that there's been a "declaration" that Glasgow might not be running next season? Says in the programme that its Glasgow's intention to declare at the AGM in November they will be running in 2014 . Perhaps the dropping of the price for the Sportsmans Dinner by £10 suggests not many tickets have sold and the fence won't pay for itself.

glasgowmicktiger Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Shame really but you would have to pay me to listen to craig brown could have had joe and james speak about their careers would have maybe created more interest 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Enjoyed today's match despite the scoreline. We had a bit of luck with Morris coming off trying too hard and Grajczonek also when his bike seemed to die on the fourth bend when leading. However North's stupid bringing down of Newman in ht8 was just desperate when he had the speed and laps to pass him. He was also racing Screen in his previous heat for no obvious reason. No complaints about Screen today, plenty about Grieves who was slow as sh*t again. Thought Ringwood was unlucky in ht12 to be excluded when Doyle came across to block the outside but locked up leaving Ringwood nowhere to go but run into him. Its tough going at the bottom!

Starman2006 Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Necessity for an air fence probably-financing it that is. My undestanding is all clubs excluding i believe the NL, have to have FIM approved airfences or Foam fences, and that might be a problem for a lot of clubs. But im sure with the help of sponsors fans AND riders this could be done. But it would depend on the clubs circumtances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyretrax Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 I reckon this fence thing is due to the E.L. needing more teams, perhaps to suit SKY. So if you can't afford one you could form a New National League with the current N.L. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you can't afford one you could form a New National League with the current N.L. How did you come up with that theory? ALL tracks in EL, PL & NL next season have to have air/foam fences.

george.m Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 (edited) Puts your posts into perspective. Discussion about a track potentially closing and you respond as you do. Why not find something about Berwick to be negative about, like the colour of the shale. Edited August 18, 2013 by george.m 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halifaxtiger Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Thoroughly entertaining meeting. Have to say at the end I was rooting for the Tigers (which is probably why they lost). They rode their luck a bit but it was a battling performance, with Screen making a mockery of that I saw about a fortnight ago. He can stll beat the best. Jacobs, too, had a good meeting. Somerset are going to be a real handful for anyone in the forthcoming play offs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weeyin Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 MD Dakota made the pass on Kyle hard but fair ... He didn't touch him and in a further heat Doyle locked up and Joey got excluded when he had nowhere to go 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weejeemy Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Enjoyable meeting. Apart from heat 15 anticlimax. Lots of real effort put in by the whole team.+ At least one of the tractors has had a rear wheel paint job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirate Nick Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 MD Dakota made the pass on Kyle hard but fair ... He didn't touch him and in a further heat Doyle locked up and Joey got excluded when he had nowhere to go Hard but fair is where you pass a guy but leave him room to race, not deliberately stuff him into the fence (which is why he was excluded) the boy needs an attitude check. I do agree about Joey though, there were one or two I thought should have been all four back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree about Joey though, there were one or two I thought should have been all four back. Dakota has the attitude of a winner, That's why he reached the Semi-Finals of the SGP qualifying series and finished 2nd in the Australian championships.
