sparks123 Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 I was at the meeting and can tell you that Claus came out the pits and watched Ht13 &14 from the banking down from the 3rd bend before making his way back to the pits,I think he was thinking he had chance of being in Ht 15.Personaly he would have been a better option than Bridger who had been lifting at the start all night. Not sure why he would go out the pits (possibly to see a different perspective of the racing). Thanks for the info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigeddiechek Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 Your are correct he was in Ht 13,it was Ht 14 he watched from where the Steward stands ,when you are not allowed along to the small tea bar at the Pits ,the people I was standing with asked who it was and it was Bandit In No 5 race jacket along with someone else.He then walked back along to Pits.100% positive on that . Â Doesn't mean he wanted heat 15, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fromafar Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 Not sure why he would go out the pits (possibly to see a different perspective of the racing). Thanks for the info. Personaly I think he was looking into the line into 3rd bend where Summers went up the inside of him in Ht 11.Doesn't mean he wanted heat 15, though.Correct,but he certainly wasn't in the shower thinking his meeting was finished!!

I know where you are talking about but I never saw him, I'm fairly sure BigEd stands right there where it is so I'm sure he would know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigeddiechek Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 Didn't notice him on 3rd bend, I'm afraid, Jim. Â You having a wee stirring spree? Â Claus refused 15, IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You spoke to me on your way round to the exit, I'm sure it was before Ht 15,I am not stirring just pointing out a fact I have witnesses to this but it is not really worth getting excited about.Anong the fans I stand with it was 50/50 % regarding Brider or Vissing I was for Vissing giving his gating abilities that's all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balderdash&piffle Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 Â I agree with you that Vissing should've been in Ht15 last week against Glasgow, that certainly was a strange one. A reliable source said Vissing refused to ride in heat 15 A reliable source said Vissing refused to ride in heat 15 Also Berge scores 8 for Scunny, taking tjhe piss or what Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allthegearbutnaeidea Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 I was also told he refused to ride but didn't know if it was true or not so didn't say anything on the matter, Berge on the other hand, he can f*** off 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â He is fast turning in to toxic material that Glasgow will have no chance of getting off there books but for the present outside looking in the Bandits need to get shot as quickly as it allows and benefits the team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new management really needs to show they have a grip on the situation, the amount of people who told me they were not coming back after Saturdays performance, was to say the least alarming. Many were old die-hards, who have put up with with what we have been served for the last few seasons. Until Saturday we have had very good racing, we had a bad night on Saturday caused by rider attitude in general, so a little early to walk away.

Â Should never walk away, that's a sure fire way not to help. Â There's been massive improvements in the way speedway is presented, the track is perfect, the promotion has been brilliant. The team will get sorted, that is for sure. Â It's certain riders that have been letting everyone down, not the management, and we should be making sure we are behind them 100%. It's the least they deserve for not only keeping the club alive, but also doing it with some style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The track is massively improved on recent seasons, seems to have a problem with the start, but most certainly it is much much better, with the exception of Vissing, the riders like the track.

You know well enough that they will get the team sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We probably got a cheap loan deal on him.We are getting ourselves into a tricky situation regarding Team issues if all these stories are true !

You should know by now that fans are not going to give money to watch riders take the P#ss irrespective of the Promotion,it needs sorting quickly or their good work will quickly become undone.

You are right, it will get sorted, like the 2 names in the frame at the moment, still think 2 more changes is needed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the averages after 3H 3A depending on what changes are made Bridger and Liam could be 6 and 7... with Kev at 3 and Dany at 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazc Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 Thinking about it this could be a blessing in disguise once your averages kick in , then the correct riders are off loaded Berge & Vissing to name but 2 and with the points left to play with you could really turn yourself into a really potent team. Â I know i have mentioned Rene Bach but you could do a lot worse i had the pleasure off watching him last season and he is right up there with his attitude and professional manner he conducts himself , his equipment is also top notch so from that respect he should be at least sounded out, hope things improve soon as it appears other aspects off the club are on the up.
