Endeavour 681 Posted July 27, 2018 Despite the heavy score in favour of the blue n gold I thought some of the racing was excellent. Feel if we reached play offs we could be in with a chance. Gonna be hard getting there though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Feel if we reached play offs we could be in with a chance. Gonna be hard getting there though. Agree there was some exciting racing tonight and the inclusion of Richie Worrall (resplendent in blue & yellow kevlars, btw) has certainly made us appear to be a more solid unit. Congratulations to Josh Pickering on his maiden paid maximum in the Championship, which he achieved in his spectacular all action style. OK Redcar were virtually a 3 man team in Jorgensen, Barker & Jonas B Andersen, and far tougher tests home & away, have still to be raced, before we will have an indication of whether the Monarchs will be in the mix for Play-Offs & the KO cup. Saw a couple of Redcar fans supporting their team tonight and having endured similar humiliations of ourselves under the Tom Cook era, I appreciate this is a time when dedicated fans must rally round their club to ensure its continuation.

Wouldn't rule it out you look like potential play off qualifiers at least. Once there anything can happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

parkendlass 102 Posted July 28, 2018 (edited) As I understand it, the abject performance by the Bears last night has presented Edinburgh equalling their highest ever score at Armadale. At least the Bears have made the record books. Sometimes it's hard to be a speedway fan. Edited July 28, 2018 by parkendlass Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They had a very good working relationship and mutual respect for each other . You may well be right about unsettling him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is what i was referring too in my previous post, i think the departure of dickson upset the applecart a little with what seemed a shock departure, which can inadvertantly affect riders. apologies if my last post was seen to be unfair “slagging” glasgow, i can asure you it was not meant that way at all. I am an avid supporter of not only edinburgh but scottish speedway as a whole. Edited July 29, 2018 by GhostRider Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No worries to be fair it went a bit pear shaped after that and I probably do go on the defensive of Glasgow too quickly as has been pointed out to me . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And last season I believe it was the owners that brought him back not the team manager.Then we had R and R battle in the pits all season, Dan not happy it must have been excellent team spirit.

After the drivel on here on Friday you will be asked on a written blow by blow account on this by a certain poster , how you know this , and did you sign a confidentiality agreement. I do not doubt you at all but some on here especially on this thread will be on with the matches under your toe nails soon , even though they have been caught out on here regarding an ex Glasgow rider.
