Cami playing another blinder on the websites preview. "It's our best chance of winning if we can all stay fit". We've 2 riders currently injured cami lol

Cami just counts the riders before the meeting,probably couldn’t name them.There’s only 6 tonight so  could be bit of a head scratcher for him.

The reserves have been Glasgow's a chillies heel for years and sadly lessons have never been learned. 

I can understand them trying to protect Pjiper as an asset for seasons to come but in the past (with the exception of Bewley who was already  BV asset) they have tried young 'prospects' that haven't been up to it and haemoraged points at home never mind away. 

A rethink for next season I hope although league setups may be totally different. 

Have you forgotten about Conner Bailey already?

Yeah when in this meeting it would make sense to name a no 8.

No. I'd still have had him but seemingly the manager put all hopes of that to bed last year in the final at Poole. 

Got a habit of getting shot of the wrong guys.

Last year Glasgow always had 2 good reserves, lowest averaged riders were Hume (5.83) & Bailey (4.63). With a lower points limit decided to keep the string top end, but don't think you can say the reserves are always their achillies heel.

Just because they haven't won the league, doesn't mean they've not been a good team.

As for Bailey his home / away split was 6.31 vs 3.53, so I can wee why they let him go.

It seems whatever team building Glasgow do, they'll always be a strong team, but not win the big events!

Any possibility of a Dave Rowe equivalent on bsn tonight you think? 

It does say on twitter that they are making an interesting announcement before H1...

I was thinking more of 'we decided to scrap the playoffs and first place wins the league..' ;)

Yip scrap play-offs and run individuals over 20hts with no second chance semi-finals and finals.
