lbw 869 Posted October 9, 2023 (edited) Pirates may be down but are certainly not out ! Only followed speedway updates so didn't get a real feel for the action so I can only say after a very bad start we managed to stop the gap being more than 14. Looks well set up for WINborne Road and I'll be there cheering the Pirates on to win the League! C'mon the Boyzzzzz we can do this!

LagutaRacingFan 1,935 Posted October 9, 2023 14 points is not a lot. Ipswich found that out. Poole are favourites for me. Glasgow should have ended up with a 20 point lead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The post I replied to said Rowe will be missed for the Pirates but Vissing won't be missed for the Tigers - ludicrous. Again, that is just false - Vissing has been missed and continues to be missed, at least as much as Rowe, probably more - around Ashfield where Vissing scores well.

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? I'd love someone to ask his thought process as regards to HT12 in the past 2 meeting. I just can't get my head round it.......But if Lee was willing to come out and have 7 rides then ...... To answer your question no. There is plenty of folk on here who would be better team managers that maybe aren't as great a guy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ace can slide off all on his own he doesn't need any pressure put on him to do so The replays clearly showed Thompson had not passed and in fact took Ace's left leg away. Even Pirates rider Roynon admitted exactly that once he saw the replays. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like his truck driving days still get impression wants to be riders pals not their boss. Is Lee race fit enough yet for 7 rides. If he rides in 12 would he have scored in 14? I don't know the answer but bonkers decision Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GS550 449 Posted October 9, 2023 1 hour ago, Nickinho said: I cannot describe this as an exciting meeting. 5 heats staged in 50 minutes and the racing has been processional. Breaking tapes and re-runs taking up time - to be fair they've got on with it. A bit processional - flooded track the last few days and track still wet what do you expect.

Endeavour 681 Posted October 9, 2023 Glasgow blew Pirates away first 6 heats. Heat 7 through 15 Poole scored 2 more points. Bomber once again box office. Could all come down to R/Rs and reserves at Poole. Not Complin’s favourite track. If Rowe is declared fit will Middlo put him in team. Bit of a gamble. Glasgow favourites IMO.
