Gavan 5,049 Posted December 1, 2017 Vissing and Starke give Glasgow a far edgier middle order than last year – they are racers who will front up when things get tense in a meeting - which contrasts with a few in the Glasgow team last year who gave it away a bit too easily. I think Glasgow are lightyears ahead of Ipswich who still look a soft touch to me. Is that the Ipswich side last year that never had its 1-7 the whole season yet still made 2 finals?? Now we have Covatti for r/r and Haartel for Newman, so even if the new boy gets 4 or 5 a meeting it will be covered by Nico. Hume is a steal on a 2.00 The Glasgow team looks very good but Ipswich has 4 heat leaders as well. You can think the Glasgow side is better but saying 'lightyears ahead' is just trolling Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can think the Glasgow side is better but saying 'lightyears ahead' is just trolling Glasgows side is much better than Ipswich. 4 heatleader vs 5 for Glasgow and Sarj will be better than Hartel and hes in reserve vs second string. I just dont see what advantage Ipswich have. Ipswich isnt a bad team but Glasgows looks very good to me. Id be amazed if anyone betters it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,695 Posted December 1, 2017 Glasgow probably just edges it against Ipswich. The jump for Sarj (pun intended) could be matched by Danyon (was 4.57 from his 7 matches) Ipswich top 4 just pips Glasgow but very little in it. Starke in 5th position has edge on Haertel as he is a known quantity. Whilst Haertel may do well to expect over 6 is unrealistic. Connor was the best performing 2 pointer although JPB would generally be seen as better prospect by most acround the UK. Bring it on and lets all enjoy it whatever the results Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ben91 1,743 Posted December 1, 2017 (edited) Glasgow have a strong spearhead. A solid engine room and improvement from reserve. It's a good team. It's hard to make comparisons until other line-ups are completed but they'll be in contention. If anything I'd say Scunthorpe are putting together a side more capable of challenging than Ipswich. They too have a strong top two, their engine room of Auty, Allen and Manzares could potentially be better than Glasgow's, while they'll always have a strong reserve. Elsewhere Peterborough's four named so far look pretty meh. Lakeside have started building like they mean business but could suffer from a long tail. It's too early to judge the sides who only have one or two riders each. Edited December 1, 2017 by Ben91 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ghosty 500 Posted December 1, 2017 The Glasgow Tigers do look a very good team on paper, they will need to gel as a team & stay injury free, then results will follow. However the promotions loyalty to the 2017 squad - IT STINKS! If your favorite tiger from 2017 is no longer a tiger (100% chance) you may choose not to support the tigers in 2018 that also might include local riders sponsors. It will be interesting seeing 2018 unfold in the tigers den, riders will know if the TEAM does not perform you may be elsewhere in 2019. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
