This first leg is going to be a real tough one and could easily decide the aggregate outcome.

June's win for the Tiger's is no indicator.

We might just have been a tad underestimated by the home riders that night ... that won't happen again.

As we seem to have been saying all season, we need everyone firing on all cylinders.

I'm not sure I can see that happening.

So I'll go for a home win, and hope we can keep it close for a return leg that'll be equally as tough.

 

Go on boys ... prove me wrong!

It is great that both Glasgow and Edinburgh have strong teams now..... their rivalry goes back a long long way !!!!

 

The results is no certainty.... everything to play for.

 

IS there a run off if it is all square after 30 races ?????????

I think it's just a run off if it's all square , though my nerves couldn't stand that . I just hope we can stay in touch on Friday . We have the riders that can get round there , Aaron , Nick and Victor don't have issues with the track and Richard rode well that famous night we won there in the league .

The price hike for both legs still rankles , but maybe the BSPA have sneaked in a new law . If both teams track 7 riders and there's not a guest to be seen , then clubs can charge £20 to mark the historic occasion .

If it goes to golden heats is it on a pay as you go basis?

Bucket collection before they start the next one!

Must admit was surprised by the price rise, hand wringing. Glasgow cut their entry by 50p at the start of the season, have improved the stadium beyond all recognition at huge expense and put an exciting team together. Then shock horror they raise the price for a final by £2 (if you aren't disorganised) and £5 if you are. Seriously? Moan about that?....The club was dead this time last year, shutters were coming down but we are asked for £2 and it's grumble grumble, garbage!

 

Edinburgh have again provided a winning team and again are losing money i think they are perfectly entitled to try and minimise that deficit if they can. And for Edinburgh if you were organised there was no price difference at all!

 

Anyway should be a cracking weekend, really hope we keep it close on Friday so that Sunday can be an awesome contest.
