Jaizer Posted July 21, 2023 Report Share Posted July 21, 2023 Fair play to Lee tonight, getting it tight and was probably the match winner. Hopefully a start for better to come Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skidder1 Posted July 21, 2023 Report Share Posted July 21, 2023 In the BSN track walk with Bomber at the start of the BSN stream, Bomber stated that they'd done a lot of track work under the supervision of (I think) Alan Bridgett from Monmore. Yet the track turned out to be very slick!! No surprise that Poole kept it tight on the night. With a fully fit Zach it may have been closer.

Forecast been for rain all week and there's no been that much. Even today one forecast was saying showers at 5. I believe Meridith was just looking at bend 3 that we've traditionally had an issue with in the past. God himself fixed it last time but he'll be too busy with worky and bewley these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee Eck Posted July 21, 2023 Report Share Posted July 21, 2023 7 minutes ago, Skidder1 said: Yes that was it Meredith. I guess he won't be coming back then? I assume it’s Andy Meredith, track curator at the NSS? I gather he’s been helping Glasgow for some time now. TBH Glasgow’s track has been consistently better than Poole’s for some time now although Poole’s has been a bit smoother, and for some that means better, these last couple of years. I like them both - Glasgow is fast and suited to riders who enjoy fence scraping, hence why Bomber and Basso score well there. Poole’s is an old fashioned track - it can be rough and inconsistent but, if the opposition are up for a fight, can make for really exciting speedway. I prefer that sort of track to the Polish bowls which tend to be all about speed over technique. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gavan Posted July 21, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 21, 2023 Glasgow fans don’t rise to the forum troll … we had lots of it when Poole were in the top league from Shovlar Poole fans are called blue tints for a reason …. They don’t think speedway exists outside of Poole and can’t take any form of criticism at all …. Im an Ipswich fan and I know our track isn’t close to being one of the best … we get the odd good meeting but on the whole it’s average racing … it’s my club but I can accept the issues Poole is known as an average track and is a gaters paradise hence they have riders like Worrall and Lawson who are good riders but are basically gaters ……. The problem is the Poole fans won’t accept it they can’t believe that any track is better ….. it’s obvious to any speedway fan that Glasgow is a couple of levels above Pooles track same as it is a couple of levels above my track at Ipswich When Poole was top league everytime sky went there it was awful bumpy racing yet we was told it was superb every other week ….. funny when BSN are there it’s awful yet we are told it’s superb ….

Noelinho Posted July 21, 2023 Report Share Posted July 21, 2023 I’ve watched heat 12 back on BSN. Not a great camera angle but it does look like Basso passes after the line. I’ll not send hate mail to the manufacturers just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think they are putting us into a false sense of security for the league meeting and then BAM the track different again and we take half a meeting to get set ups? Hmm.. No, it’s just how it is sometimes with the weather. Weather turned out to be better than expected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinny Posted July 22, 2023 Report Share Posted July 22, 2023 Anyone would think Shovlar is a Brad Pitt lookalike going on his posts on this thread. Not a 60 odd year old troll who spends time tweeting with a convicted paedophile who used to be on this forum!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Sedgmen had a terrible run with us and looked to be on his way out and then had his best meeting in The Stripes. Turned out to be his last meeting.
