Can’t disagree either that Leicester look the team to beat , seem to be hitting top gear at the right time.

Ans as much as it pains me to say it Edinburgh look pretty handy also I’m sure we will be in the mix but certain riders are lacking consistency.

Wells is really disappointing,Sedgeman has always been unreliable couldn’t believe when you signed him.Bandits will be fancying their chances in the Cup:D:P

If Edinburgh can get Lawson going back at reserve they will be challengers,with their heat leaders all going well and Thomson improving every week.

Leicester have made emselves red hot favs with changes, your mob arent afraid of laying out to try and win so they will go for it if its possible

We are one rider short of being a decent team. It would also benefit us and Connor Bailey if he found an NDL team to ride more regularly to sharpen up.

I thought eastbournes side was good pre season but you cant win with 2 riders going bad . Looking from the outside in glasgow have sort of almost missed the open goal tonight. Heaven knows the pelters they would have got if not winning tonight

It’s more the frustration that you have two experienced riders that you know have the pedigree but for whatever reason it is just not happening for them.

The promotion will see this also and do what is best for the team , wether they persevere with them remains to be seen.

Was there tonight if we had crump who knows what might have happened but Craig cook is brilliant great to watch but  watching Wells tonight he was poor and I expected so much more from sedgeman I think if Glasgow stick with that team you may come up short again when it comes to handing out the medals.good luck to you for the rest of the season.

I know folk are saying 'if only' about Crump.  The only difference I see is possibly Ht1.

In Ht1,Plymouth would have got a 3-3 instead of losing 2-4. As it was, if Bowtell hadnt shed a chain, it would most likely be a 3-3 anyway. In Crumps other rides, Bjarne won 2 of them, one as IRR and one as tac sub. Ht13 and 15 would have most likely have been the same anyway. Keleher rode well in both. Of course, thats all a matter of opinion. We will never know for sure.

Cook made it look so easy. At one point, he almost took Bjarne in Ht15, but then eased off knowing 2 points were good enough for the win.

I disagree with the meeting Updater in Ht5. It was Keleher in 2nd, not Cook.

What has Bjarne got to do to be awarded right of the night? He has been awesome all season. I am all for highlighting the so called 'lesser lights', but in all honesty, I dont get Keleher getting it again. He was good, dont get me wrong, but Bjarne was pure class.

Anyway, I think the 'Man of the Match' should have gone to Mark Phillips. How on earth he kept the track in such good condition all night in that blistering heat, I dont know. Well, I do actually. Sheer hard work. He deserves a lot of credit for his hard graft, not only last night, but all other meetings as well.

Plymouth a tad unlucky to lose, but with only 6 race winners at home, Bjarne getting 5 of them, it does make it very hard work. Expected a lot more from Glasgow who seem to make a habit of making a sows ear out of a silk purse.

Please note the various reports that Crump Clashed with Cook are incorrect. Sam Jensen didn't turn left forcing Crump the race leader to fall, Cook on the outside had nowhere to go, did well to lay it down but still hit Crump.

So please "PRESS REPORTERS" get your facts right.

Jensen who was off gate 2 had beaten Ruml from the gate 1 and was turning tight in front of crump when Ruml who was inside and clamped nudged him and it caused a domino effect and craig had to lay the bike down as he was on the outside and slid into jason and i was watching it from the pit gate racing incident you see every week
