Paulco Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Can you imagine it . A Glasgow v Smugs Grand Final . The Forum would explode , I would get banned , Blobby would still be questioning the Glasgow takeover , George M's preview ( I bow to his greatness ) would take up all the bandwidth , Dekker might make a reappearance at both legs . me and the Emmerdales would get pissed regardless , God it would be awesome 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigerite Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Memories from 2011 better get the cameras and the sun block ready , and the knives sharpened . Would be nice to have a repeat of that season when both Tigers were at the right end of the table slugging it out I would take that mate, would be nice just to be competative after the last 3 years. Great to hear the good news about the new owners and stadium improvements from Ashfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scunny1 Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 I do like us being underdogs and written off before a wheel is turned-it usually means a good season for the Scorpions!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romans lovechild Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 so everyone is going along with Glasgow as hot favourites, strange that cos they only have 6 riders so far, we all know races and titles are won on the track and not on paper, and injuries play a big part in any teams season, but I cannot see Glasgow even being the top team in Scotland.

Speedway is not run on paper , we know that , that has been proved on numerous occasions . But as things stand we don't look like being in our usual place down in the lower reaches of the table . We are looking forward to the season for a change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Of what I have seen so far, and in no particular order I would say the following look pretty good; Glasgow, if the Summers signing comes off then a very strong top 4, with some promising youngsters if Berge and Sarjeant can convert some of that promise into points. Peterborough, look solid throughout, the main key is if they can get Adam Roynon back to form and staying fit. Edinburgh, you can never ever rule out although if I am honest for once would like to see them struggle as you get a bit fed up with them winning all of the time. Sheffield my own team look to be dark horses, and will add to Ipswich and Workington to that category. At present don't fancy either Scunthorpe, Redcar, Rye House and Somerset. And unable to comment about Berwick, Newcastle and Plymouth until their sides are completed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenway Bleachers Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 How about the Facenna raceway, sporting the Paulco pits, baba bar,lioness lights , tyretrax terracing, and George.m. starting Gate. Sponsors would be falling over themselves 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I would like to see Elite Speedway up north, I cant see the predominately more southern EL clubs sanctioning it. Mind you, with the their league shrinking, I suppose anything is possible.

I'd like to see them struggle....it comes across as a bit petty to be honest. If I'm honest I think we will be in the mix as always this year but Peterborough, Glasgow and possibly Workington could all do well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crump99 Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 After reading that the new owners at Glasgow want the club to be the Manchester City of speedway, I wonder whether this could be the last season for Glasgow in the Premier League. Rings a bell: "NEW owner Rick Frost has promised Panthers fans that great times lie ahead." (29/8/2008) - we got years of Kenneth Bjerre, no success, the winter of discontent, a messy end with the introduction of supremo Horton and tenuously more of the same for the foreseeable future!
