Popular Post Fromafar Posted October 11, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 11, 2023 Well done to Glasgow Speedway,the Facenna’s deserve it for the effort they have put into the Stadium and the Sport and it was a great Team effort from the the Tigers.Although take a bow Chris Harris that what the fans pay to see,absolutely brilliant over the 2 legs,some sensational riding. 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A large cell of light rain has developed over Devon and is pushing east. Fingers crossed it passes to the north of Poole. https://www.netweather.tv/live-weather/radar Wet in Glasgow now, we're peeing ourselves laughing. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost unbeatable over both legs and was good for Sheffield too, not so good for Leicester earlier in the season. I believe he should have been in world cup too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he should have been in world cup too. He may not have been doing so well for Leicester but was still doing ok enough not to get dropped. Part of the reason for Leicester's collapse was the day they released Bomber, extremely poor management decision! No wonder he felt like packing up. Nonsensical !

Pinny Posted October 12, 2023 Report Share Posted October 12, 2023 Could not understand what Leicester were thinking with those team changes to be honest. mental! I remember Harris as a 16 year old at Exeter in 1999, would never of thought then he would go on to have the career that he has had. Looked good around Exeter but rubbish away from home, as was the norm for all their riders apart from Colesy. He then came to Newport with Trelawny a few years later and got a faultless 15 point maximum beating Watson, Smart and PUK. Couldn't believe the difference in his from in a matter of seasons. He has been an absolute pleasure to watch for 25 years. Never looked a future world champion but always gives it his all. Be a sad day when he packs up. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think my first ever Speedway meeting was Berwick Vs Exeter 1999 and Bomber was at reserve. Fast forward 3 years I remember two stalks of Paul Bentley (no slouch), his team I think scored 28 points that night and he then finally caught 'Banger' in Heat 15 to stop his maximum. Then went on to pass Leigh Adams at Berwick the following season. He's had an excellent career for someone who doesn't trap terribly well. Hopefully he can keep on keeping on for a few more years. Halcyon moments like this week sadly don't usually last. Well done Glasgow and Bomber! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Paulco Posted October 12, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 12, 2023 What a wonderful night . Couldn't get to Poole due to work commitments, but what a night we had at Ashfield . The team were amazing last night , I was one of the ones who doubted a 14 point lead would be enough down there , but from opening 5-1 the doubts disappeared as we ticked off the heats . But this is for the guys who has brought this club up from its knees . 2013 and 14 we were standing among the weeds on the back straight , turning up and watching us getting hammered every week . Fans selling possessions to help buy the first airfence ( ironically from Poole ) . Now we have a wonderful stadium ,a terrific track , a team who can now call themselves worthy champions . What a difference . Poole will bounce back from this , they have a cup final yet to race and if they win that they will have won two of the three competitions, hardly a disappointing season . Roll on 2024 , but please Glasgow , dont let Bomber leave . 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

History mean that we were all waiting for the Poole comeback, but give the boys credit, as they didn’t let them back into the final. Ignoring the usual idiotic point scoring on here, the request to blame the authorities for Tarasenko being allowed to race for us (can you imagine, the very cheek of it !), and the frankly classless comments on BSN from Roynon , as Glasgow go to collect the trophy, that “Poole are club like no other” (who hires these inarticulate people anyway?) , how about just acknowledging that we were the better side over the two legs? A special shout out to Harris, Brennan (who I’ve been concerned about) and Complin, who showed what being a team is all about. To be fair think Roynon's comment was part of his answer to Ian's question about Poole rather an opinion about Glasgow, just unfortunate timing. Could be wrong but from memory think that's all it was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was allowed, god knows why, but it was, so is legit. 2. If we moan about it, it looks like very sour grapes. So best not really use it at the moment and let Glasgow fans have their moment of glory. Totally agree about your final line. And with that, you have just eradicated your magnanimous congratulations to Glasgow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
