Aaron Summers may be worth a shout for home meetings, he was impressive at Ashfield two weeks ago and perhaps has turned a corner. Outside the play off contenders there isn't much choice though Paul Starke is a rider I keep thinking could do a reasonable job. Just not Jye Etheridge again.

Jaizer 2,864 Posted August 12, 2021 Never liked running with guests personally, think Leigh lanham many years ago scoring 1 point from number 1 has scarred me for life . And with so many Friday night clubs might find choice thin on the ground at times Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JanAndersen 822 Posted August 12, 2021 Going with guests is certainly an option especially if you can get through to the play-offs which Glasgow should. There would be more riders available at that stage due to some teams not having meetings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And with so many Friday night clubs might find choice thin on the ground at times That's partly why I thought of Summers who rides at a Saturday track though he did have a shocker of a guest appearance for us at Redcar many years ago, think he got a point and lost us the meeting having been there with the 0131 just before it and got double figures but that's the way it goes. Second in the averages is an extremely difficult position to cover with r/r in a very strong team never mind ours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
