Sedgy could score 5 or 15 wasn't great when rode for us against Redcar. Kyes has good meetings no reason he shouldn't be capable of double figures over 6 rides. But after that agree you look weak, new guy doesn't have anyone with experience helping him with set ups, lines etc. 35 would be a good score for you I think tonight.

Lost a chain in one, last against Doyle & Sayfutdinov and two seconds. Don't know where he picked up the back injury. Packing up his bikes? There is no back injury 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have Edinburgh not provided a sick note to get the guest facility in previous meetings? If there's no injury then why have they not announced he's withholding his services.

eide67 Posted June 16, 2023 Report Share Posted June 16, 2023 Sedgy off the back of a Prem paid max, Kye having a confidence boosting best prem meeting so far, Bastion had a promising debut and will find the Ashfield bowl easier to ride than the Dale, Paco and Lasse have never had a good meeting at Glasgow so must be due one, and young Dayle showing last week he can pick up points at this level. Wait a minute, I think we could win this one! Note to Blobby - stop being so pessimistic, man, just relax and enjoy the speedway 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig was a terrific rider to watch round Ashfield , wonderfully entertaining . And a constant thorn in our side during his first stint in the blue and gold . No reason he can't be that rider again if he can put what the trouble is behind him Yeah, it is a shame. I thought last year maybe he was just getting sick of Glasgow. He's brilliant when everything clicks, and I'd have loved to see him tonight. Makes you wonder if he'll come back at all. He must be burning a lot of bridges. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't show up on the stream. He was hardly in shot as he was way back and your comms said his gating was hopeless. And they'd seen the same in Danish league Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not entirely true, he had a practice after the NDL match the week before. I did think he showed some promise though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was led to believe that he had touched down a couple of days before and the management were trying to find someone to offer him a room because his bikes were stored on the east side of Edinburgh. He still looked okay on his debut though and he didn't appear overawed by the occasion. Definitely one for the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they'd seen the same in Danish league I guess it depends on whether your glass is half full or half empty, but even with poor gating he improved as the meeting went on and looked a determined, stylish rider who, in my opinion, will become a good quality rider at this level. I'll admit that today is probably too soon to see that promise turn into a lot of points, but you never know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame as he’s still one of the best riders in the league. Similar to when he went awol last year for a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously they aren't the official ones until a requisite number of meetings have been raced but they are how they (unofficially) stand as of today. You're right though, it doesn't look very good.
