He looks like his mind is elsewhere for most of this season and the latter part of last , here’s hoping things are ok with him and we get the real Cookie back soon. Hopefully he gets going again. If nothing else him and Masters battling it out home and away is usually entertaining. I do think Glasgow probably need Cook scoring to challenge for the title. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craigs dip in form would probably mean we would have zero chance. With him not scoring what we are all used to it puts pressure on the younger riders in the latter heats , I see on another thread he has been carrying a rib injury.

There’s been frustration at his results, but I’ve not heard anyone say any of the riders should be dropped. Craig started the season really well, but hasn’t been himself recently (although engine issues in one meeting didn’t help). Connor was great at reserve but is understandably finding it tougher at 2 Ulle is fitting in well at 3. Not as strong as last year, but last year he was exceptional. He’s a bit short on speed but he shows his experience. Basso has been pretty reliable and last night he was unbelievably good. Tom’s hit double figures in 6 of his 11 full meetings. Danyon’s similar to Connor - does well at reserve, found it harder at 2. Broc really struggled early, has improved since he moved to reserve (with a blip at Scunthorpe). The biggest impact has been Craig and Ulle - their averages are going down. Everyone else is at around their season starting average, or above it. If Craig can get closer to his start of season performances, the weakest link is at 2. But that’s offset by being strong at reserve. Playoffs aren’t for another two months. Let’s be honest, the biggest factor is often making sure your riders are fit when you get there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s be honest, the biggest factor is often making sure your riders are fit when you get there. I think Glasgow are looking pretty strong throughout, there will always be ups and downs with the top 4 but they are a pretty strong unit. The tail I think will look after itself. You will probably have one of them struggling in the main body of the team, but will always have two strong reserves to counter that, so they can cover. If any one of those three goes into the main body and steps up, then you look a VERY strong team. It's a lot of pressure on Tom Brennan, but that's how you find out how good you are and so far he's going the right way. the engine room terrifies every other team, because I don't know any rider who wants to go up against Ulle and Basso. Neither of them know where they'll be riding on the track so the opposition will always be wary Glasgow, Poole and Leicester are the stand out teams for me. Poole's top 3 have to perform every week as their tail is longer, Leicester and Glasgow are pretty even strength for me. It's going to be fun watching Edited June 19, 2022 by wtf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilly Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 (edited) After a 9 1/2 hour trip north, was good to see a decent meeting, plenty of entertaining racing. Nice start to his Oxford career by Summers. Disappointing to see Josh MacDonald pick up another knock, we've virtually run the whole season without a number 7 with a 4pt average. That could be the difference between play offs or not. Vital to win all our remaining home matches and hopefully pick up something at Edinburgh on Friday.

He even looked back at the referee's box whilst he did it. Just seen it, embarrassing effort by Batchelor there, putting footballers to shame for their diving abilities. Shame the ref fell for it!
