GiveusaB Posted August 30, 2022 Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 Tom's crash looked like rider error to me....inexperience! I hope he's ok and is fit for Wednesday U21 Final. He has a great chance of winning this meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think theirs starts end of Sept? Good job you made top 2, bit of extra time! They are not sure if he needs an op yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll have play offs in November again ha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noelinho Posted August 30, 2022 Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 (edited) Get Marcin Nowak back! Its looking like the Tigers’ season is done. Might be better off racing with the ambulance drivers.

Plenty of criticism of the Glasgow fence for a couple crashes during GP Final ,yet none with all the injuries in GB at various tracks with their so called safer Air Fences.There is an alarming amount of serious injuries in GB .IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think it's wise having such a gap in fixtures this time of year. Football seasons started, people get out the habit going every week and with the Glasgow autumn/ winter kicking in not going to help attendances Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure its the bikes but perhaps the levels of effort/desperation that is causing more incidents? Was a time when trackcraft coupled with speed and a half decent attitude was enough to earn and keep a team place, now its solely a results based business and points matter. There was a time when team riding or switching order to make a different attack on a rider ahead counted now theres just scrapping for the finishing position between "team mates". Im sure everyone can name half a dozen riders who they think are quick but often passengers on the bike and even if these are not directly involved in crashes they are forcing others to do the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football seasons started, people get out the habit going every week and with the Glasgow autumn/ winter kicking in not going to help attendances It is even more amazing in that the season started later for most if not all clubs in April rather than late March & some clubs season will end 2nd week in September. Even Leicester have had a 3 week gap. Maybe the fixture maker(I think a guy from Edinburgh) & the BSP Ltd/SCB can get their heads together & arrange the fixtures every 3 weeks with a 1 week gap of all leagues. This would allow fixtures to be rearranged during this week for rain offs, curtailed, postponed, cup meetings when dates available for every club. Poland do it every other week so it should be feasible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
