Well done to Danyon Hume with an excellent paid 10 tonight. Good practice for this time next week.

Great performance. Got better each race he had.

If the ref couldn’t see wells fence kasper he needs to find a new job. Even the Glasgow fans at the 3rd bend thought it was a shocker . Thought the bandits fought well . Cook looked the part and to be fair wells was class until the incident. 

Seemed to be a trainee referee at that point (being trained by someone who was a trainee referee the last full speedway season we had).  Could you imagine going to a football match between Hibs and Hearts and a Sunday League referee appears for the second half.

Stood on back straight wells rode the same line on bends 3-4 every race soz but i thought anderson was at fault.

If there is someone else on your line you need to race a slightly different line not ride into the side of them and knock the rider off.

Firstly wish Jye and Dany speedy recoverys,but a tremendous effort from the other 5 can't have been easy for them knowing Jye was going to hospital.All deserve a lot of credit and tried their best , special mention to Danyon who was an impressive guest and the imperious Cookie good luck to Glasgow, will never know what might have been.

 

 

Hopefully Jye and Danny make a speedy recovery.

I photographed this from the pits and there was no contact between Ricky and Kasper

Really didnt have to ride that wide though did he… 

Great effort shown but not to be, impossible with only 5 riders, hope Jye’s alright, clearly in a lot of pain

Hopefully Jye & Danny are ok. Replacements will be required for Brough . Danny seems to have been concussed so why did he ride in the rerun.

it was his ankle and knee that was giving him the problem he couldn’t put enough weight on it for turning the bike

whats that got to do with it? If you’ve got someone you’ve just passed going into the bend, go into it with some caution at least, he had the speed, didn’t need to go out to the fence knowing someone’s on his outside, contact or not

Who was in front at the time ? Genuine question as I couldn’t make it last night.

From the pits you wouldn’t get the viewpoint that we did from the 3rd bend looking right down at it… whether he hit him or not he gave him absolutely no choice but go down…

If Wells was it front is it not up to the rider behind  to shut off if there is no room,  always had the impression if you were in front you dictate what lines you ride.

Some conflicting views on here but I suppose different viewing angles can throw up different viewpoints.

Delighted to see that after x-rays Jye Etheridge has no broken bones but is obviously very battered and bruised.

Wells went under anderson on turn 3 , yes he moved out but he was in front anderson kept it on and ran out of room as wells was now up on the fence.which to be fair most riders were doing on turns 3-4 riding it like a diamond shape.i honestly think glasgow could have been caught if berwick had a full team maybe not beating glasgow but coming close.
