Paulco 7,101 Posted January 5, 2023 To be fair to Arthur and his ilk . It's tough for them to understand how things are in the Championship . There are two types of rider in our league . Those who ride for Glasgow Tigers and those who wish they rode for Glasgow Tigers . Now the pressure of having such an accolade placed upon them has proved too heavy a burden on some of them in the past . But this septet assembled for 2023 look a terrifying prospect for the rest of the league . And you can only see the pride of Scotland steamrollering their way through the season . 6 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

corfe pirate 110 Posted January 7, 2023 Joking aside Glasgow have assembled a strong looking side that will most likely challenge for the title. . Back with the banter. They do look good enough to reach the final and finish 2nd to us pesky Pirates. . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Technik 494 Posted January 8, 2023 With most teams at or near completion it's easier to gauge the potential of each team. BERWICK; This is a very strong looking Bandits side, with the experience of Schlein to be the father figure over a fairly youthful team. If Flint & Knudsen can add to their tally then a play-off slot is assured. They will struggle at reserve more away from home. BIRMINGHAM; A team built to a tight budget, Morris will score well but will he be motivated when the going gets tough. I think another hard season for all at Perry Bar. EDINGBURGH; Fantastic that the Monarchs come to tapes but the loss of Masters will hit hard & his replacement in Cook is at best unpredictable in recent seasons. I cant see much happening towards the play offs GLASGOW; Money talks for the Tigers & again a massive side has been put in place with the single plan to win the title, can this be the season? if they can stay injury free there is every chance. OXFORD; A huge front line in Nicholls Masters & Kerr but will it be enough? The reserve pair are very green & a lot will rest on the shoulders of Heeps to bag a haul of points if they are to succeed. A good chance to make the play off series. PLYMOUTH; Another team built to a budget & much like Brum I believe they are in for a hard time & no play off in 23 POOLE; Five places filled & no doubt another big season will be expected at Wimbourne Road. The Cook's & Thomas continue to grow then the Pirates will please the home faithful. We await the reserves but I feel no matter a play off spot is the norm here. REDCAR; The Bears are a tough call, in Riss, Wright & King they have a strong spearhead but there is a long tail for that head to wag. It's going to be close but I dont think this is Redcar's year. SCUNTHORPE; There will be a lot of last heat deciders at the EWR in the coming season but weather the Scorpions have the firepower to get the result in the big races remains to be seen. So for the play offs I have Berwick, Poole, Glasgow & Oxford 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
