Read what topsoil says about him in the post above. And your now making up stories about Claus. He injured his ribs at that wonderful track, known locally as ftg. He wasn't fully fit but gave the Danish championship a go anyway. he scored 0 and suffered an exclusion.to say he did not turn up implying he let the club down is totally wrong. And for you to criticise him when your team apart from Aaron is full of riders who think we'll always get a team if we keep our average at 6 and if not we can always go to Berwick. Having said that good luck tonight So Jye Etheridge and Dany Gappmaier, who have improved their averages tenfold this year and last year go in that category as well then? The same one as Paul Starke, Lewis Kerr and Claus Vissing, half decent second strings but won’t make it. Well I completely agree with the man and I am most certainly not trolling, not that it has anything to do with Berwick at all and it was about Glasgow’s team. Keep Cook, keep Thomas, keep Kerr, rebuild, imo If you’re wanting my opinion on the Berwick team it is keep Summers, keep NBJ, keep Etheridge and possibly Pijper and rebuild with getting Nick Morris back the number one priority, but Doolan will be in the team so that won’t happen.

My point was that you have a lot of 6 point men who are happy to stay there. Despite increasing there average by tenfold Etheridge is still only 5.98, Dany 6.08 both damn close to 6.00! Having increased there averages by tenfold over the last 2 years I suppose 2 years ago they had 0.0598 and 0.0608 averages respectfully? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cometbaz 67 Posted August 11, 2018 Workington have a team of 6 point men and doing very nicely thank you (when they can get a meeting). There's a lot to be said for strength in depth. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well Jye’s match average at Edinburgh was probably lower tbh Now he’s winding up and annoying most sets of fans by skelping their best riders, especially the Scottish teams funnily enough.

The problem with riders like Etheridge and there are plenty out there, as much as they are good or acceptable round there home track invariably they are equally as bad away, watching him at Glasgow lately he was poor at best , not his fault it is just his level. They way the Edinburgh promotion described him was unfair and unjust he is what he is but skelping riders is possibly an over-reaction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SharpenRake 1,505 Posted September 17, 2018 Despite an up and down stop start season Glasgow won all of there 10 league home matches in 2018. The only other team to do so, so far, is Workington (well done to them) who have still one home fixture to complete. Every other team lost at least one match. So well done to everyone that rode for the stripes and good luck in the play offs 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

By all accounts he wants to return next year, it all boils down to league structures and what league we will be plying our trade in. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
