Flint, Andersen, shanes, Morris, Wright, clegg are your best available options? Biggest meeting of our season and have, with all due respect, a Berwick reserve for your no.2. would the Edinburgh promotion agree to turn up without worrall, when best available guest would be way below his abilities? I hardly think so If Brennan was no.2 in the averages I'd say use r/r, but he's 3rd in the averages so Cook wouldn't get an extra ride!

Can the league dictate to them that the fixture must be accepted if Edinburgh offer up something reasonable or is it purely between the two clubs to arrange? I heard (unoficailly) that Edinburgh had turned down a date to race the KOC tie at Glasgow, if true they can't then demand Glasgow turn up if the weegies don't agree to the date!

Think this tie is near from over (is that the opposite of far from over) Edinburgh can lose by 10 & still qualify! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 (edited) If there was going to be a concern about Glasgow not wanting to race without Brennan, why not arrange the remaining NDL fixture for Friday?

MD Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Reading the press release the groundwork has already been laid for Rowe not to be there, and there's Thomson getting one of his rides as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Stewart Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Before anyone starts jumping up and down, it says on the BSPA website today that Edinburgh have a doubt over Anders Rowe. This is a mistake, it was copied over in a team lineup we sent out which came from an old release of ours. Anders is riding. I've apologised to Anders and will also contact Andy Povey of the BSPA.

Don’t think they were that bad with the exception of Masters the rest were out gated and passing was at a premium due to the way the track had to be prepared. We rode mainly the inside lines whilst Edinburgh riders were chasing what little there was on the outside line with little success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
