Weather in South of Glasgow nice, pavements hardly damp,no puddles in the car park which floods regularly. Damage done earlier or no ability to sort the track ?? Sadly we no longer race in the south of Glasgow. Where we stay weve got puddles in our puddles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what bandits fans would have said if half there team had got injured tonight just so Glasgow could get a meeting on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way i see it is after last weeks fiasco they can't afford another meeting that may cheat the fans, it would do more damage in future regarding crowd levels. I hazard a guess that it was more to do with the daily rain all week. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted September 6, 2019 Report Share Posted September 6, 2019 After last weeks happenings is anyone surprised, any kind of a wet track and this meeting was off. Glasgow will make the playoffs but Berwick`s tiny tiny faint hopes of making a play off spot has just gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough,but the number of cancellations this season is wearing thin with a lot of fans I know, the riders just want perfect conditions nowadays.The track staff obviously don’t want to waste their time trying to make a track that riders will just moan about.Its not a dire forecast for this evening.But “ the damage is done” wins the day.The Tigers failing to get stuck in last week probably resulted in a lack of entertainment last week IMO.

So that track was packed tight with littled loose dirt but riders need it super slick, does that not mean the track should've been to their liking? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HGould Posted September 6, 2019 Report Share Posted September 6, 2019 Facebook post says it all really, Cook looking miserable in his parka in the rain (old photo not a live one). Cook clearly either not "in the right place" or "not happy with the track" . Can't risk another home defeat so called it off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After tomorrow night Glasgow are already racing on Tuesday, Friday and Saturday of night week, they could run a double header next Saturday with their meeting with Sheffield.

You're usually spot on with this sort of thing, Neil -- but the Championship extension (to 19th) has been fairly widely reported? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
