damosuzuki 696 Posted July 27, 2018 Very excited at this meeting. Great to see Cok around Ashfield again, and Doolan, Etheridge, etc should make it action packed. I'm done with predicting Glasgow victories Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bandit59 1,151 Posted July 27, 2018 Looked a good meeting according to updates think heat 9 when we went 6 up was a mistake allowing a T/S in heat 10 hope Nathan is okay and an entertaining meeting tomorrow night a good effort from the Bandits but well done to the Tigers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
damosuzuki 696 Posted July 27, 2018 Wow. That was a hell of a meeting. A terrific advert for speedway with proper neck and neck racing and a big crowd going absolutely mental from start to finish. Greaves crash looked horrible - he landed on top of the air fence but hopefully he is not too badly hurt. 10/10. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MD 1,307 Posted July 27, 2018 Massive crowd and massive crash in an entertaining but otherwise unconvincing home win. Greaves crash was a whopper being on the end of first bend bunching. Unfortunately he looks to be injured and we are back to square one with our reserves unable to bridge the gap for a rider in the 1-5. For almost every heat win Glasgow got, Berwick packed out second and third, though our under performing reserve got the finger out in a couple of heats to make all the difference. In his first meeting Cook has worked out that the inside line is often the fastest way round in the first half of the meeting and you also need to cover it on turn 2 from the tapes. Too often tonight we were beaten there with riders going for the standard throttle on, sitting mid to wide track. We look vulnerable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Weeyin 1,022 Posted July 27, 2018 Fantastic meeting, great racing in most heats , thought the Tigers were going to lose at one point, imagine needing a tactical at home, but it worked for us, Bomber unlucky not to get a maximum when he went to wide on bend 4, Sarge rode a stormer in heat 14, impressed with Gappmaier, Ashfield suits him. Berwick were unlucky not to get a point, hope tomorrow night is as entertaining, loving the Cookie/ Bomber pairing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Solidmango 188 Posted July 27, 2018 Great meeting, great crowd, great racing and the tigers rose to the challenge. 10 points from Sarjeant when up against 2 high averaging reserves was a great return. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mac101 1,201 Posted July 27, 2018 First time I can remember having to delay the start to let folk in at Ashfield they just kept coming in it has got to have been a wealthy crowd tonight stand was full well before the meeting 2 hospitality box’s full not much Space in the forth bend enclosure and the stand there it was great meeting for the fans to watch had everything you would want in a match and Speedway under flood lights can’t beat it 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gazc 7,098 Posted July 27, 2018 Great meeting the track is now starting to produce. Berwick really deserved a point, two teams make an entertaining meeting and they certainly played there part, on to Berwick now weather permitting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
