SharpenRake Posted yesterday at 11:48 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 11:48 AM Wood strengthens the Monarchs. Can't see the Tigers repeating their Cup victory. Need to try and keep it tight and hope for the bonus point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither were great last time but improved performances could win us the meeting. Edited yesterday at 12:00 PM by Beirao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWellBehavedWorrall Posted 23 hours ago Report Share Posted 23 hours ago Not confident of a win this time around. I thought it was obvious at Armadale a few weeks ago and at Shielfield on Saturday that Boughen is still suffering from that crash at Kings Lynn, so I’m not expecting much from him, especially given it’s a hip injury and Armadale is tight. Flint is the biggest concern. He needs to contribute more; it’s essential if we’re to succeed, but two underwhelming performances so far give a poor indication. Having said that, I would love nothing more than to have egg on my face tomorrow night. If Hodder and Perry score a couple each, they’ve done their job, but given Perry’s performance at Berwick, who knows? Harris, Howarth and Thompson will each need to score double figures (again) to accommodate the above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MB723 Posted 20 hours ago Report Share Posted 20 hours ago Should be close might depend on if Polis gets going, R/R for him scored 7+1 in the Scottish Cup so he'll probably have to match that especially if Leon and Ashton are stronger. Personally don't think you should be able to use guests from teams in the same group, Edinburgh will probably want to use one of the Glasgow reserves at Berwick if they can.

While I agree with that idea, at least in this case I think it's suits Berwick if Edinburgh win on Friday, gives Berwick the best chance of winning the group (however unlikely).

Weeyin Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago Well off to my second trip to Armadale to follow the tigers, tac subs allowed in this event, if needed, however with Victor at reserve and can have 7 rides the pressure is on Glasgow , hopefully it will be an exciting and close match Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Blobby Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Can still see Glasgow winning this all be it by a small margin. Depends on how Polis goes for us imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlicktrackSandy Posted 30 minutes ago Report Share Posted 30 minutes ago 3 hours ago, Fromafar said: Not so sure about that.🤔 Would not be averse to giving him a chance at least. A young enthusiastic local Scottish lad is surely worthy of a bit encouragement. Monarchs are likely to be quite strong at #6 all season anyway so Stene's job would "only" be to score 2 points against other reserves and it's job done. Possibly there may be other NL alternatives from further south who may be available and may be willing to travel but question is would anyone else be likely to contribute more than 2 -3 points per match. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
