Thoughts? :o

More chance of the Hubble telescope spotting Elvis riding Shergar on Mars than Poole not reaching 29 points before heat 10 at Ashfield . Probably be the smallest crowd ever for a national final .

In many ways this will be a real test for the riders and management of the Tigers. They need to perform for their fans, and show some fight. The trophy is gone, but they need to win the meeting to restore some pride. Will they?

Should be decent meeting,but let’s be honest Pirates are going to ride with certain amount of caution.It’s theirs to lose.

Well obviously if they are in a 3-3 they will just settle for that. But best form of defence is attack imo.

Even 4-2's against would do!

Do you mean Glasgow fans only turn up for a good result? I thought from all the posts on the Poole thread, that they turn up for the racing between 2 top teams, rather than the score?!

Could we change up the order a wee bit, to rattle a few cages and maybe even say last chance saloon for a rider or two? And how about taking pressure off Tom Brennan a wee bit and give the captaincy to Claus - purely based on his age and experience? Let the young man concentrate on his riding?
Go something along lines of..

Harris, Nowak, Basso, Brennan, Vissing, Complin, Pijper?

Seriously ? You don't think a 34 point deficit will affect the size of the crowd ? Or are you just trying to be a smart arse?

I think he’s trying to make a point. Most Glasgow fans have been bleating on about how they’d rather have exciting racing at Ashfield than worry about winning silverware….so why wouldn’t they turn up to watch the ‘exciting racing’?

Smart  arse would be my guess.
