Edinburgh v Glasgow Scottish Cup 2nd leg 30 March 2018


Recommended Posts

Surprised that no ones started a thread with the match finely balance at 50-40 to Glasgow.

Edinburgh seem confident and even Phil Lanning suggests Glasgow were flattered by the score - see interview with Matt Williamson posted here on 24 March here https://twitter.com/SpeedwayGB

and I thought Phil got paid by Glasgow :o

To be fair on the night it did flatter us slightly with Richie on his second bike and our numerous tape offences.

 

Need to sort out the issues but i think we should have enough to win on aggregate.

I`d  be  happy  with a  win on the  night. All  Weegie  heatleaders  ride  our  place  well,  only  Viss  looks  like  bambi on ice  at the  dale  

We  might have  an advantage  at reserve  but  if  Skippy  behaves  he  can  win  heats.

Likely  to  take  Max and  Billy a  few  weeks  to  get  the  hang  of  our  wonderful  oval,  so that  puts  lots  of  pressure  on  Ricky and  the  germans.

Looks  like  the  weather  will  play  ball.

Bring it on.

Looking forward to seeing some racing back at Armadale once again. Personally feel like any win would be a good result for us tomorrow against a Glasgow side who’s riders are very useful around the Dale, apart from the big Dane. 

More competive Laps under their belts as well for the boys prior to the proper stuff starting.

Think Edin will win it but not the aggregate.  Around 47-43 scoreline.  

Unfortunately think weather will win this one.  Poor start to the day and not looking like much improvement.  Even seen snow forecast later.

The forecast doesn't look too bad nothing wrong with some natural watering and with the excellent track staff everything should be fine

Season should always start no earlier than mid-April, whilst the weather is unpredictable all year round starting in March is asking for trouble.

We were fortunate we got a small window were it was reasonably dry last week.

MEETING OFF

And that's why I will never buy a ticket online in advance in the UK except for Cardiff where they've got a roof.

Poor Jack T....... all the way from Norwich and back only for the meeting being called off 90 minutes before tapes up. And Claus presumably over from Denmark for the night.

Well, at Swindon if the meeting is called-off up to one hour before start time you get an instant full refund to your card. After that it's the standard terms, but enough to make it very worthwhile, especially since there's no booking fee and you get a free programme worth £3. 

It can be done fairly and in a way that supporters can trust the promotion. If they can do it.......

Buying online you can either attend another match if you can’t or don’t want to you can ask for a refund on your ticket and it will be refunded.

Reckon it could have been called off about an hour earlier.  But never going to keep fans happy no matter when you do it.   

Season delayed a little bit longer for me.

 

Agree with Gaz about starting season in April.
