Haha yes let's not talk about "the incident". From the easty thread seems a lot of issues with Mr Jordan.

Shame bit of a British speedway institution That was a weird meeting, at least Tom Brennen came back from such a bad injury, one of the worst moments I've seen, but doing the business now, strange he's ended up at Glasgow through, he's the next Bewley hopefully.

eide67 Posted October 22, 2021 Report Share Posted October 22, 2021 Well done to the Tigers, thoroughly professional job - different mindset to last week. But a good solid all round performance from the Monarchs that gives me hope for tomorrow. Hope Edinburgh had a quiet word with Cam, while he was up, about next season.

Endeavour Posted October 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2021 Beaten fair and square. No complaints. Kye looking bit down on power. Hope sorted for tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Job done. Still feel Poole will be too strong for Glasgow in league and us in the Cup. I not sure they practiced in the afternoon,as they were still trying to sort out the entrance to 3rd bend from the heavy rain on Wed when I arrived at 6pm, as it does not dry out due to the shelter of the greyhound board.Even if they did that’s their perogative.

I'll retreat back nearer home now. Don't retreat on my behalf! You're right, a lot of people say the same about Edinburgh. Trick track, home advantage, etc. It's usually a lazy claim, backed up by little or no evidence to support the opinion and make it fact. Long live small, technical (not trick) tracks, including Eastbourne 1 hour ago, eide67 said: Well done to the Tigers, thoroughly professional job - different mindset to last week. But a good solid all round performance from the Monarchs that gives me hope for tomorrow. It was a p1ss poor performance from our top 3. Only 3 race wins from 14 outings. Unacceptable. They'll need to win at least 10 out of 14 tomorrow to give us a chance of gaining a decent result. I guess, if we have to endure play offs in this country, at least it's the top 2 contesting the final. On that basis, the aggregate score was justice and the potential of a 'tainted title' for Monarchs has been put to bed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JanAndersen Posted October 22, 2021 Report Share Posted October 22, 2021 Some consolation for last night is that even if we’d kept it reasonably tight it wouldn’t have been good enough. Glasgow far too good for us over the two legs and clearly had their baws kicked for the cup debacle. We’re going to need 15+ lead to take to Poole to have a chance in the cup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why did he bother to mention it then( does he know it took place).Iwas just saying I wasn’t so sure ( could be wrong though).Monarchs certainly put up much of show tonight.Perhaps saving it for tomorrow.

He mentioned it I suspect because if it happened it was a smart move on the part of the Tigers and it paid off as they looked up to speed from the get go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
