Glasgow v Poole/Plymouth Sunday 25 September 2022 - Semi-final Championship Play offs
Solidmango replied to SharpenRake's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Re Starke falling, that’s a bit like saying if it didn’t rain it wouldn’t have been abandoned, no? -

He also said he wasn’t actually on the track so was only giving an opinion from distance, that’s quite an important point. -

Completely agree, I was there as well. Totally agree re heat 10 as well. It should be a rule that in cup ties or aggregate scoring fixtures, both have to run the distance. -

They did, both Ian Brannan and Justin Sedgmen commented on it multiple times after heat 1. -

Agree about the early start, there might be a reason why they couldn’t start early though, rider or referee availability? I reckon it should be compulsory for play offs to run the distance, hardly fair for the home team to lose a chunk of the tie regardless of who it is. -

Did you not watch it Lisa? BSN commentary saying the track was “very dusty” after heat 1… It’s clear Poole wanted to continue until heat 10 and then finish. -

Cami Brown’s interview “the track was rideable, not raceable…..” Paul Starke was on the outside line into bend 3 and the back wheel just gave way, no grip at all. Very convenient for Poole suggesting we keep racing after heat 5 and try to call it at heat 10 if the rain continues, that way Glasgow lose 5 heats of home advantage. The rain had started again not long after, there was no chance of getting to heat 10, especially after Worrall couldn’t sit still at the tapes, then couldn’t sit on his bike and then destroyed the tapes, I’m sure we could have had a few extra races if he hadn’t thrown his toys out the pram! -
Glasgow v Redcar CL 1/7/22 @19.30
Solidmango replied to Paulco's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
They do and Roynon swaps places with Edwards for Redcar which prevents Edwards taking extra reserve rides thankfully. -
Glasgow v Poole/Poole v Glasgow. Playoff Final 2/4th Nov 2021.
Solidmango replied to Steve Shovlar's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I was on the far side and was convinced he never touched them, if he didn't then that is a horror decision, especially in such an important meeting. -
Glasgow v Leicester - Championship - 6pm - Sunday 19 September 2021
Solidmango replied to SharpenRake's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
From a Glasgow perspective, we don't have any real urgency/need to run this meeting before the cut off, as long as we get the Birmingham meeting on Friday, and we get 3pts, then we are secure in second place. The only team that could overtake us is Leicester by beating us at home, that assumes Redcar don't win at Poole tonight. -

From Stewart Dickson on Twitter… Back home after @SpeedwayLions meeting at Ashfield in@glasgowtigers abandoned after 1 heat. Such a shame after both team captains rightly wanted work done on the track due to the weather. Disappointed to read that I asked for track work on BSF. Not true! -

Totally agree, if we manage to beat Birmingham and Poole don’t lose at home to Redcar then we are safe in second. Like others have said, Howarth didn’t look happy from the off! -

But I wonder if they could’ve ridden it before Stewart complained and 90 mins of track work was done… -
Glasgow V Berwick - Friday 27 August 7.30pm

If done on the same day, what if the changes are staggered albeit not much time before the deadline.
