    Not surprised. If Swindon stick with Doyle Nick won't be able to ride for them. Not sure if any other Premier team could fit him in which means a championship team and as he is riding in Poland his options are really limited to Thursday or Friday night teams. He showed he can ride Ashfield winning the riders championship and with James grieves at his side could be a clever signing

    Official Teams 2018

    Can we keep this thread for actual facts? There's plenty of other places for hopeful ramblings.

    Aaron suffered from bike problems after the Berwick away match and couldn't get back to where he had been despite even getting his tuner over from Poland. He also didn't get a double up slot which limited his earnings I'd have him back at Glasgow.

    Workington 2018 .

    If this is about fans staying at home to watch craig cook on the TV then as another poster pointed out with the lack of fixtures you can fit your matches around the grand prix.

    He made a cracker for Workington in the last match of the season at Ashfield and to be fair to mcgregor he did not call it back, which surprised a good few people

    Still a Glasgow asset so they'll be looking forward to receiving the loan fee

    I wonder how we've managed to get a Friday night when we were refused in previous years
  8. I'd try and get a new face on the management committee to replace one of the old school. Someone like Stuart dickson of Glasgow

    Speedway ... A Way Forward

    I could be wrong but think a 4.51 premier average would be rounded to 4.5 and the 5.421 would be 5.5

    yep doing away with the 'heavy' hitters

    I think kermi is waiting until he is told the team by Stuart, being a trusted fan that does not leak any info, and then he'll be on here with his predictions 🤐🙊

    Certainly was, at least for 2017
  13. As has been said many times before Glasgow are not the highest payers in our league BUT they are regular payers and stick to the agreed contract.
  14. For those not there last night, the Glasgow fans voted for Ryan macdonald as rider of the night. It was good to see the guests on both sides giving 100%
  15. The Tigers did well to restrict Panthers to a 10 point lead but the main issue will be th track and weather. The track took a lot of rain prior to Saturday's individual on Saturday and even some rain during the meeting. Today it has been lashing down with rain forecast for tomorrow night. Lets pray the forecast is wrong what with Ipswich wanting to run there leg of the final on Thursday. sadly dont see the Tigers getting through mainly due to Chris Harris, great rider and team man, he clealry really wanted to win the chamionship individual on saturday with some breathtaking fence scraping moves and i can see him going through the card unbeaten although hope i'm wrong.

    For once he is right AND Hancock is coming to the Tigers end of season dance on Saturday. Surely he wouldn't be allowed to ride in the championship OR does this mean we are going up OR he's been tempted by the thought of a haggis supper 🍽️

    Glasgow own Jack, no ifs or buts. He missed a Glasgow meeting because the powers that be decided to ignore the rules.
  18. There has been a lot of criticism of the BSPA over the last few months. The Star has a piece by Dick Barrie that suggests when he attended previous Agm's new ideas by intelligent new promoters would be shouted down. I've also read that the old guard whoever they are still control UK speedway even though there was a threat of a breakaway a few years ago. From what I can see there are more new promoters than old guard eg Glasgow, Berwick, Redcar, Somerset, rye house, Workington, Peterborough, belle vue, Sheffield, Leicester, Ipswich,etc. They should club together kick out the old guard and tell them to form their own promoters group, something like Bored of UK Speedway (sorry meant Board)

    Didn't realise we were moving up 😯

    Interesting you've made it clear you don't want summers and Lawson and you don't necessarily want the team you have predicted. So who do you want

    Still trying to work out what you are trying to say
  22. oh the irony! Suggest you change your name from 'cyclone' to something more appropriate like 'f*rt'

    Since everyone else is pretending they know something I think IF Richard leaves it will be because he thinks it is right for him. Assuming he will sign for lakeside or Somerset in the premier league it would make sense for him to cut out the weekly trip upto Glasgow and sign for another championship team. At least Glasgow will get 2 loan fees. Would be good to build side around lunna and Bewley
