lisa-colette 6,040 Posted October 9, 2023 Well done Glasgow. Still doable I think though. Depends what Tarasenko is like at ours. Hope he doesn't ask his uncle for tips as he was class in Steve Worrall's testimonial. Although Complin seems to think it is already won which could help us. 12 minutes ago, GS550 said: 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. Yeah and no one agreed with him from the comments they read out lol. Another 5 mins and I muted BSN as I can't be listening to Roynon for 2 hours. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's often like this and crowds have dwindled but because Glasgow are winning meetings week in and week out it's "exciting". The Sheffield-Ipswich clash last week had a lot of exciting races and overtaking despite the terrible weather and it was considered "boring". Go figure. Hasn't been like this all season except recent semi. Now into October, cold wet track that's been waterlogged the last few days, still wet - so totally different to normal. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
highroad119 101 Posted October 9, 2023 Well done Glasgow track staff for getting a smooth safe surface just 48 hours after major flooding. Been a joy to watch this team at this amazing track, no matter the outcome in second leg. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just a comment on Tarasenko, I don't remember him passing anyone if he missed the gate, only Joe T briefly. Nobody knows how he will do at Poole as he has never been there. I thought we came back well after a very difficult start mainly caused by our own mistakes. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You mean unlike Edinburgh who have 1 heat leader and 6 reserves? Although all heat leaders at home at armadump right enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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 ? Ace has outscored Lee last 2 matches at Poole. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We are better off with Joe T, he may not win alot of races but what a trier. I thought Joe was unlucky to get excluded. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

szkocjasid 3,080 Posted October 9, 2023 (edited) Once again shocked that Pijper got a 4th ride, I find it hard to believe a team manager could be that incompetent, so can only assume he thought Glasgow already had it in the bag or likes getting grief online from fans? There's no way he can think Pijper would have outperformed Complin in that race! Edited October 9, 2023 by szkocjasid 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
