Gazc Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 Warming myself in warmer climes at the minute and looked in too see how things were going wished I hadn't bothered what a shambles and a complete waste off money to go and watch a 2 man team any real ambition off play offs is a long way off with this excuse tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nagy1 Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 The most surreal thing about tonight was that is wasn't freezing cold! £15 to get in and stand in a stadium is pretty expensive when there is no entertainment! Track was an absolute disgrace! Only disappointed with one Glasgow riders performance! The captain is allowed an off night every now and again! Richard and Nick put in decent scores, didn't expect much from David the two reserves were simply out their depth! Liam Carr went from looking like a wobbler last night to a superstar tonight! Wouldn't like to be watching the bikes go round there every week!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you you do the official glasgow facebook page? as they are blaming the track as well but it's okay though according to them as nick and Richard got a 5-1 in heat 15 and that was with Richard on Aaron's bike.

Did I say it was ALL the tracks fault? Two out of three riders done pretty well!! How many good meetings have you seen at Berwick? Even the meetings we have won have been rotten! Tonight was the worst I have seen it there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fairplay1 Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 Really enjoyed Tonights meeting some close raceing with some passing thrown in, the track looked in really good nick which allowed the Riders to have a go at it Garcia looks like he will be an entertainer once he gets dialed in, Liam rode really good aswell, so like a lot of people there tonight I thought is was very entertaining. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one arm bandit Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 Ha ha ha the man city of speedway were total guff and are now blaming the track, what a surprise!!!!. Any excuse apart from the real one that they were beaten by the better team on the night. Sore losers or what!!!!. Trying to buy the league and look what's happened, 2 defeats in 2 meetings and the excuses are flying out!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topsoil Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 Wasn't many passing moves tonight, Morris on Jorgensen heat 15, Fisher passing Lawson then Lawson re-passing him heat 10, Garcia passing Williamson heat 8, Doolan passing Morris (heat 13 I think but don't quote me). But for once Berwick riders were making the gate. Very pleased with the win, great weather, three points, decent crowd, good travelling support. The big difference was the reserves. Really pleased for Liam Carr, big pay day tonight after his horrible injury last year. Big performances from Doolan, who has been in great form since midway through last season and TJ who has been an inspired signing. Cody Garcia will need time. Hopefully he will be given it. The only disappointment is that he hasn't been out getting extra laps in after the meetings in the last two weeks. An NJL meeting on tonight, but Ryan Fisher still managed time to test an engine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real loser tonight was the paying public, totally farcical that any team has to turn up so below strength. What other entertainment allows paying customers to be shafted like this? Hope Angus is allowed to appear at Hampden tomorrow. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope Angus is allowed to appear at Hampden tomorrow. Below strength, its the same for any form of sport. How is speedway matches with riders away to qualifiers or whatever any different from football or rugby teams playing with below strength teams because of international players being away. When footballers are away on international duty you don't hear the whole of the premier league complaining about below strength teams. It's part and parcel of sport. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigeddiechek Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 I really enjoyed tonight.It was great to see so many Glasgow fans travelling down, they show why it is so important to speedway in general that there is a strong Glasgow Tigers. Best support going and helped make what was a really good atmosphere. Some cracking banter going on round the 3rd bend too! Personally I thought the track was good, and when closely matched riders were out against each other, there was some cracking racing. Morris and Lawson came out and put on a brilliant display in heat 15 to give the Tiggers' Fans a bit of consolation.Coty has an exciting style, and when he was given the chance to make a pass, he did a beautiful cutback on the 4th bend. A young lad, a long way from home giving it a real go. Looking forward to seeing him progress. Liam Carr looks to have come back stronger after his bad accident. He played a big part in the meeting. TJ: well he is really making the few doubters on here look very silly now. I'm sure someone even said he would struggle around Shielfield. Aye, right he has!!!!Racing, banter, catching up with good friends, and a big home win. What more could you ask for! Full teams, I guess, but to be honest, I'd forgotten about that at the time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baba Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 One armed bandit- your obviously elated with the win, glasgow were below strength tonight it would have been a closer score thats for sure if we had james victor and dimitri available. Not knocking your win but the tigers were under strength with 3 riders missing and r/r being taken by ellis and williamson if you cant see that then I suggest you change your name to one brain cell bandit.

Robinh88 Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 (edited) Ok well Penchev I would say Glasgow when their full 7 return they will consolidate a play off place As for ourselves I don't think we will make the Top6 but I don't think there will be much in it Edinburgh have the best top 3 in the league as things stand, I don't see anyone living with them at present Of course this can all change as the season unfolds...

Fromafar Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 Victor Palovaara - World Under 21 Qualifier 2015; Dimitri Berge - broke track record holder at Ashfield this year and runner up in 1st round of World longtrack Championship 2015. Yep that's what you call nafffunny how you decided not to highlight the rest of the sentence that I quoted,but anything for a dig.At there present averages only gets them a reserve berth in Pl irrespective of what they do abroad and it certainly doesn't benefit British Speedway them missing so many meetings.Ps Why is there no home meeting at Glasgow tomorrow.Let me guess!! can see Howe jacking it in or getting the chop if his performances so far are anything to go by.

screm Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 As a spectacle this meeting wont last long in the memory as apart from Morris and Lawson, Glasgow put up very little resistance. Nothing should be taking away from Berwick however as they gave their visitors a right royal roasting. Would the result have been different had Glasgow had their two reserves, probably not, would the scoreline have different had Glasgow had their two reserves almost certainly but if you sign riders who are likely to disappear off to diddly European meetings you deserve all you get, and that's not a go at Glasgow as I would feel the same about any other club in the same position, including Berwick who it should be pointed out were missing Hall who was off long tracking. I understand that Glasgow requested earlier last that last nights meeting be postponed, thankfully that was met with short shrift from Berwick. Big crowd last night swelled by the usual massive travelling support from Glasgow, fair play to those who came giving your weakened team. Credit to fans of both teams for adding in excess of £2000 to the Ben Fund from the collection that took place last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
