Complin will probably kick on near a 5 point average with his home form especially. Not sure about Ace after watching him last season there are better 2.00 riders out there this season. But Glasgow will be certs for the play offs imo. WHAT!!!!!!!! Riding with Harris in 3 races & against oppositions 3 heat leaders. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you think you're capable of doing that? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope, but then again everyone thought he was going to be a HL after one good meeting in Aussie so maybe they learnt their lesson too? Can't just have it one way. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't just have it one way. Who said that? That's absolute nonsense Lisa, was pointed out he had a decent meeting. But it's a bad day when beating a prem number 1 and getting slated for it. Based on his experience 4 points is about his level, especially as had to work for his when bowes and west were gifted most of theirs by retirements! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good point, I never considered how much harder it should be for a number 2 to get a decent average compared to a number 4. I tend to think about who they race against, rather than finishing behind your number one making it harder to gain points. Will Pearson be at number 2 though?

Can't just have it one way. I didn’t see any comments about him being a HL - we have 3 very capable HL - lets put this into perspective - he is 18, 2 years only on a 500, was a number 6 last year and scored very well for Plymouth, he has had a very good start to his Aussie season racing against premiership and SGP riders in the Aussie title. Totally holding his own and scoring above expectations - taking some very good scalps along the way. Leave the kid alone and let him develop. If we do that he may well be a very good asset for Glasgow. And I know for a fact Poole also wanted him but he wanted Glasgow, so lets get behind him and support him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
