Glasgow 2022


Recommended Posts

Yeah, difficult to see Glasgow winning the tie. Cook will be back - he’s racing at BV tomorrow. Hume unlikely from what others have said. Ulle might be back, but he’ll probably be more useful at Poole than at home, based on his form this year.

You have to think Connor will be race rusty too.

Hard to predict when waiting on injuries. Assuming Cook most likely to be back? R/R for Hume and then whether Ulle back. Will have to have a nosy about guest, prob be Flint. Seems to be guesting in each tie atm! 

Hume back down at reserve,  so would be a guest, Starke and Ruml both fit

Inactivity is an issue too. Long as entertaining couple of meetings I'll be reasonably happy

Well after last night's thrashing at Poole I think The Tigers need a rebuild for next season.

With nearest rivals Edinburgh unlikely to run would now be the time for Glasgow to step up (assuming their will still be PL and CL levels) and rebuild from scratch?

Any thoughts?

A lot to be considered this winter. Tigers team GSA looks to be over 46 so probably two changes needed just to meet a 42 limit....and there is talk of a lower limit. Hard to know if things need refreshed or whether its just the enforced gap in home meetings that has dragged things down. The big question is whether Tom and Ben would come back if we race in the Championship. Would we need to go top division to retain them? Whether Edinburgh manage to squeeze another year out of Armadale is another factor. Interesting times!

I think it would be good for the Prem if Glasgow moved up and would be interesting to see how you would do. But personally speaking I love the banter between Poole and Glasgow and would miss it if you guys moved up, so kinda hope you don't! But club has to decide what is best for them :t:

moving up sounds good but the nearest track would be Belle Vue. Plus having to race on a Monday or Thursday maybe not ideal

Don’t see how you’d need to move to the top league to retain Brennan no where near good enough to ride premiership and abroad yet. 
 

he’s not even averaged 7 in the championship yet.

Another dejected season it looks like yet again for Glasgow & the score at Poole was simply appalling & it has to be the end now for the manager but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

They won’t move up as the race night would have to change & it’s too expensive also so the same old next year I suspect.

He's literally riding in the Premiership and abroad, in Poland already. 

What are you jabbering about now?

I think it’s probably time to move on from Broc and I think it would be good for Connor to ride somewhere else too. He’s great at Ashfield but needs to develop on other tracks. I’d be sad to see the back of him but I think he needs to get a bit more uncomfortable somewhere else to continue improving.

I was really happy we brought Ulle back this year too, but I think that might be another sensible change.

Craig and Basso would take us to about 17, plus Tom would be 24, Danyon makes it 30. So we’d need three riders to complete the set.

If the points limit is lower, perhaps that looks like a bit of a top heavy lineup, but on the other side, potentially three riders on low averages with room to grow.

I don’t have any immediate suggestions for those three gaps that are left. I had wondered about Lasse from the Monarchs if they aren’t racing, but he didn’t impress in the playoff QF.

I still hold out hopes of seeing Marcin Nowak again. Those divebombs into turn 3 were filthy :D

Well if you read the post I replied to you’d know. He’s saying would he come back if we stayed in the championship. Insinuating he might drop that league. 

I was saying I don’t think he’s good enough to do that yet. 
 

not difficult to understand is it or maybe for you it is.
