Newcastle Vs Glasgow (sgbc) 20/08/2017


Recommended Posts

Looking forward to the first of 4 remaining clashes this season between these two teams. Hoping Newcastle can take the full 3 points at home this evening.

Is there anyone going to this meeting who would be able to text updates to the Updates site? If so, could you please send me a private message which includes your mobile phone number.

Thanks

Easy for the diamonds. Lawson knackered through to many meetings , summers lacking match fitness to few meetings, Worrall carrying an injury from Poland, lunna crashed out and Redcar and even if fit his bike might not be, Bewley seems to be riding as much as Lawson so would imagine his equipment is taking a bashing, perry riding for 2 teams and holding down a full time job explains his engine problems and lack of form and Smith crashed last Sunday and failed to score Thursday. So if travelling down enjoy the day but don't come on here and say it was a disgrace when they lose 😿

Any Glasgow fan attending tonight will have the right to come on here and tell it how it is , good , bad or indifferent think it will be the middle one for me but you live in hope.

So you're feeling very optimistic tonight, are you?

We have gone off the boil lately, think the diamonds will win but we may get a point, live in hope that I am wrong and we have our gating boots on and get a win. This season has been awful with lack of regular home meetings, hope they sort it for next year as I can see fans finding something else to do instead. Speedway is a habit and if no home meetings for a month, we soon get out of the habit. Even regular fortnightly meetings would be better than what we have now

Don't think any of us are on current form but I have decided to travel down in the faint hope I will be proved wrong.

I see, well don't be too pessimistic, Aaron, Richard and Richie are some of the best visiting riders to Brough, they're all good riders and all ride the track very well, I'm looking forward to watching Dan Bewley at Brough, because every time he's there, I've missed the meeting for one reason or another...

 

I predict 47-43ish to Newcastle...

 

Also, how come some clubs are struggling for home fixtures??? Newcastle have only missed a couple weekends this year? And we're not even going to make the play offs and we're in the same round as Glasgow in the KOC

Every time I have fancied a visit to Glasgow this season there has been no Home fixture,Unbelievable so few fixtures so far will they complete their matches this season?

Doubtful trying to get teams to commit to a date has been problematic.

Nice to see George and Ludvig commenting and agreeing with me over comments made on this forum over ludde letting Ben Hopwood win heat 14 last week against Peterborough and that Terrace Grumbler was talking bollox 😁

As expected result but the lack of fight from us tonight was more worrying than the actual result Richie apart we were woeful .

 

Newcastle were streets ahead in every department when it mattered, there is just something not right about the team at the minute what it is only they know but there was no urgency when we didn't gate which was all the heats Richie wasn't in.

 

Whoever gets us in the play offs will be rubbing there hands at the thought as we are pretty dire at the minute.

I'd like to be able to watch Richie every week next year.....

 

All 7 of the diamonds deserve praise for last night, even the two reserves, Alfie is really impressing me lately and if he continued, I'd invite him back as our lone 2.00 rider at reserve next year...

I am sure you would but for me he has to be the first name down for next season.

 

He is by a distance our most consistent performer then follow him up with Dan & Nike and build round those 3.
