Needed to be 20+ for Glasgow to have any chance, they needed to ram home their advantage over the last few heats but those last places have cost them. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaizer 2,903 Posted October 9, 2023 Ties still alive but can't help feeling let them off hook. Fair play to Poole 2nd half, top class from bomber again. What idiot said it was a mistake signing him 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PTW 38 Posted October 9, 2023 Very much in the balance I was hoping around 10pts and not to much more and considering we were 18 down to end up with 14pt loss isn’t to bad,think a lot hinges on how Tarasenko and Brennan go and ideally we need Rowe back aswell,think we can do it but will be very close 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jonimac 92 Posted October 9, 2023 (edited) I would have taken 14 points three hours ago, but now feel like it should have been more. Harris was sensational but Basso and Tarasenko made no impact when they didn’t gate. And Brennan isn’t pushing on like I hoped he would. Respect to the Pirates for their mid match revival. A bit of rain forecast Wednesday evening, and Tarasenko didn’t like it against Oxford. He was very tentative. As for our reserves, Ace looks well off the pace but Lee looking more confident. However, not sure of them making any impact against the Poole reserves at Wimborne Road. Our big 3 have got a lot of responsibility, but at least we now have a chance. Before Tarasenko, we would not have had one. Edited October 9, 2023 by Jonimac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,449 Posted October 9, 2023 Glasgow fans frustrated tonight thinking, “We shuid hae hud a muckle bigger leid.” Poole fans tonight thinking, “how the hell are we only 14 down?” Wimborne Road is going to be packed. Can the boys fight back, or will Bomber almost single handedly win it for Tigers? He has big, big history at Poole winning it for Bees in 2010 and for Poole against Somerset in heat 15 beating Doyle.

DJEuan 57 Posted October 9, 2023 (edited) Will be interesting to see if Cami gives Ace 4 rides on Wednesday. That's assuming Ace is scoring like he has been since he came back from injury. Also excuse my ignorance but can Jack Smith take any rides tomo for Ace or Lee if either aren't scoring ? Edited October 9, 2023 by DJEuan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smith is injured. A number 8 can replace any rider but the rider he is replacing must have 3 programmed rides. Pijper won heat 2 at Poole earlier this season.

What’s that got to do with how he will go at Poole though.Personally think he prefers slicker tracks and can gate.Glasgow done well tonight but I’m sure Tigers fans will be thinking they let Poole of the hook tonight.Fair play to Pirates.

Joseq7 369 Posted October 9, 2023 Is there any Tigers fan who wants Brown to be the team manager next year? I'm not asking if he's a great guy. I'm not asking if he's a great supporter of Glasgow speedway. I'm asking is he a good team manager, yes or no? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
