Newcastle vs Glasgow 21/07/19 SGB Championship 6.30pm

Recommended Posts

Decent meeting but the whole thing was hostage to the weather: when the track is a dustbowl there's no passing on the bends and to an extent it was a gating contest.

I'd take Barker over Jorgensen any day of the week.

Decent enough meeting and happy with a point after being 17-6 down at one point , but why wasn't Clegg excluded from heat 2 after touching the tapes ? 

Because  Bickley moved first and did not get warning.

Not a good night for Starkey, its small margins like that, that turn a league point into three. However having taken points at every away match so far must'nt grumble. Thanks to Masters for doing a good job replacing Cook. Toughest test so far coming this weekend with Leicester home and away followed by Scunny away. Before that its Eastbourne at home on Tuesday in the KOC with a big lead required.

We are already KO'd from the KOC.

Good to see Danny pick up 4 points from 3 rides . Made the difference in the end maybe.

Scored in reserves race, a gift for his other race, don't get carried away but glad for the lad that he will actually get paid enough to cover his travel costs for a change.

 Clegg was still the one who touched the tapes,  not Bickley

Isn't that what he's meant to do?

Don’t know if this is a new rule, saw the same thing in heat one of the U21 meeting at Belle Vue last Friday when Lambert touched the tapes but it was an A4B due to the Pole moving first.

Yip that’s what happened ,the Danes were not happy because it cost them 2nd place in the end.Its wrong IMO the rider that touches the tapes usually goes.

Maybe it was a gift but he stayed on his bike the 2 opponents fell/crashed and were disqualified.

Disagree with you Ruff. I thought Starkey done a great job. Paid for 10 from 4 rides and that was after a third in his 1st ride. What you expecting?????

When you put a, ';)' in your post, isn't it meant to suggest it's in jest ???,,, a bit like using an indicator whilst driving a vehicle to let folk know your intended direction of travel. A might not always put ';)'s in my posts, but I don't always use my indicators either,,, sometimes I think it funny to let other people guess.
