szkocjasid Posted October 17, 2023 Report Share Posted October 17, 2023 I would have tried for a team like this! Glasgow Chris Harris 8.95 Tom Brennan 7.15 Leon Flint 6.40 Claus Vissing 6.24 Lee Complin 3.50 Ace Pijper 3.17 Sam Hagon 2.56 Total 37.97 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FromBendThree Posted October 18, 2023 Report Share Posted October 18, 2023 Why have Glasgow sacked off Tom Brennan? They didn’t let the Eastbourne grave go cold before they grabbed him in 2021. What’s he done wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll that's a bit of a Billy Big Bollocks attitude if true. The likes of Ryan Douglas and Josh Pickering I can fully understand but Brennan is 2 to 3 seasons away from that consistency level at least, if ever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that Tom is at least a year away from being consistent enough to give up championship 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"tom initially indicated he was unsure about continuing in the championship". Given Glasgow would want their ducks in a row early presumably made plans without him. As Gaz said if was kept at 40 might have been back but most 3rd HLs this season I imagine be around 5/6. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bagpuss Posted October 18, 2023 Report Share Posted October 18, 2023 I don't think any rider should be criticised for not riding in our second division if that's what they feel is best for their development, shows a bit of ambition and a willingness to get out of their comfort zone. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely nothing and will be in high demand, maybe Glasgow definitely going Premiership and Brennen is already in someone's plans in that league? Probably wrong, but can't imagine many reasons to shed him at the moment. Edited October 18, 2023 by gazzac 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, although he did say Glasgow contacted him and said he wasn't in their plans. Anyway sure he'll up his game again next year, wherever he goes.

Didn't see that, still seems an odd decision not to retain a Brit who's captain, led them to the title and still heading in the right direction, but as said a move away will probably move him up and on again. I know I'm a bit biased with him, having been an Eastie supporter and saw him come through as a wee lad who could only just stradle a bike, just a shame we didn't get the fruits of him and Jason Edwards, especially as Eastie generally retained riders, sometimes too loyal to them, but all in the past now....

szkocjasid Posted October 18, 2023 Report Share Posted October 18, 2023 If Brennan doesn't start the season in a Champ side, through choice or otherwise, he'd find it very hard to come back later this year / next year as his average would then be his converted Prem ave (9.03).
