Trying to deflect from a pretty poor performance is bad craic Yes I think Glasgow should consider a change tbh. The team last year was strong and won the league in spite of some of his decisions I’d suggest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I have to challenge your suggestion that transponders are "wrong too often". My belief is that, in GPs, in the UK and at every back-street go-kart track for twenty years and more, transponders are accurate and reliable. When have they ever been proved wrong? We don't use the same transponders as the GP's, we use stock car transponders , take from that what you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted May 11 Report Share Posted May 11 Looks like Harris got third to me. It's a load of tosh anyway, it was a draw whatever the result of some artificial sixteenth race. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, transponder loops should be fitted approx 9" behind start line to give time based on front wheel passing the start line as transponders fitted on handle bars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changes going to be hard this season, even with the slightly increasing team building limit at end of each month. Starkes obvious choice but I'd guess have to make 2 or 3 to make it worthwhile. Trying to take the philosophical view that we're taking a year off this year and just enjoy the racing. If anyone didn't enjoy that last night speedway's not the sport for you! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MB723 Posted May 11 Report Share Posted May 11 We made the mistake this season signing both Worrall and Flint on their high averages having already gotten Harris, I'd personally drop one of them with Starke and try get 2 strong 5ish pointers (if there are any left) but I don't see either getting dropped.

You can have Connor Bailey back. Better still. Have him and Knudsen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharpenRake Posted May 11 Report Share Posted May 11 Some great racing last night and some controversy. The bottom line is that if the result had been declared after 15 heats, Glasgow would have to beat Edinburgh at the 'dale to qualify for the Semi-finals of the Trophy. After the Super heat and what a super heat it was, Glasgow will have to beat Edinburgh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good number from Edinburgh off to Poland for the GP, all booked before the fixture was arranged. Aye nice castle 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazc Posted May 11 Report Share Posted May 11 4 hours ago, JanAndersen said: I love winning in Glasgow even more so if they feel a little hard done by. Has Cami calmed down yet? I’m fine with it , best team by a small margin won on the night it’s that simple. Sometimes Cami should take a few days to decide what he’s saying rather than say the first thing that enters his head. His soundbites are getting tiresome. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, we'd need to win the Super Heat, which I guess is technically a draw, but it kinda feels like a win/loss scenario! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can find another heat leader with a second string average, could be contenders again. If not mid-table side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s such a short League season they would have to act quickly.They really lost the backbone of last seasons Team in Vissing and Brennan,who were supporting Harris and Basso especially at Home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Blobby Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 Good to see cami has got over this crying still in the speedway star. Going to put a formal complaint in. Also comping he got a fine for swearing and shouting at the ref. Really didn’t help himself but does make you laugh. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand that footage from an in-house stream might be considered as possibly being tilted in one direction or another. BSN and Eurosport can be talked as 'neutral' in coverage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edmon Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 02.2.11 g) The referee can use muli angle replay technology supplied by Eurosport, BSN and the tracks own streaming service, via a monitor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
