  1. Was envious of the monarch fans when Cookie was in their team, he is amazing to watch in full flight, he also shows great passion for whatever team he rides for. , I hope Cookie's presence will rejuvenate bomber and give the team a much needed lift, whether we make the play offs remain to be seen , we may have left it too late, I sure will enjoy watching Cookie in full flow for the rest of the season.
  2. Getting tired of the money bags and trying to buy the league comments, where was all the support when we were rock bottom for years. Riders are contacting Glasgow for a place not the other way round, it makes a change from struggling to get anyone to come to Glasgow, a lot of jealous people out there. Speedway is dying a death and something needs to be done to stem the total collapse . The Faccennas have put money into more than just Glasgow speedway as has Grant Henderson too. Cookie contacted Glasgow looking for more rides to help his season improve, we would be daft not to look into changes after Lewis Kerr season ending injury, it is unfortunate that Richie os the fall guy. Lets get behind our team and support them. That goes for other teams too, support your team or lose it. Gosh I have supported the Tigers home and away when possible , even when we were absolute rubbish and hitting 30 away from home was something to celebrate. Let us enjoy what we have now , while we still have it.
  3. Didnt see that coming, knew we had to replace the injured Lewis , but didnt expect to lose Richie, Richie has struggled somewhat this season but so have a few others. I know that Cookie has also struggled this season but hopefully he can get his confidence back riding for Glasgow
  4. Hardly think that Ben Morley is nl standard with a 5.50 average
  5. Really bad call from the TM to use a tac sub when he did, and he should have used Sarge more as he was the only one doing anything. He defo doesnt know Dixie's tactics and forward planning, it has went down hill since Stewart left. Well done to the Sheffield Tigers, I wonder which members of our team will show up at Workington on Saturday ? Glad I am in Marmaris enjoying the sunshine
  6. The Tiggers could get a hammering or they could do well, difficult one to call, although I expect a Panthers win but would love a Tiggers win
  7. Agreed, James and Jack are always going to struggle against 5 point reserves and they are totally dejected when they dont score points.If your were going to replace James, it would have to be with someone that has a similar average and what would be the point in that, we know that he can do better, he is a confidence rider and getting pulled back even when he makes a perfect start doesnt give the lad a chance to build his confidence. He beats himself up enough when he doesnt score, without seeing all the negative posts on facebook and forums.
  8. Well done to the Comets, they fully deserved to qualify as top of the borders group, no complaints from this Glasgow fan, shame on some Edinburgh fans delighting in the fact that their team lost and Glasgow losing out in qualifying, rather than giving credit to the Comets, as they have done the hard work by winning on track.
  9. I agree that the fiasco of overwatering the 3rd bend and no information given was unacceptable. We were watching the riders standing about at first bend and then a couple of them went over to 3rd bend to inspect the track and no announcement was made for 20 minutes. And why so much water was put down when in fact it was raining at the time is just plain madness. Other than that it was a good meeting with some good racing. Shame that there were not more people to see it, no wonder there are rumours of riders not getting paid, I can't see how Laura can pay them if that is the normal crowd level and that was with about 100 Glasgow fans. I fear for the future of Workington speedway, Laura has put everything into saving it but she needs more to people to come through the door or some big support from sponsorship. We know how that feels at Glasgow, yes we are getting slagged as the millionaires but before the Faccennas took over we were concerned every season if we would be running the next. I sincerely hope the Comets can survive.
  10. Part of the problem with losing Stewart was that he was track curator and he was told that someone else was to do it, the guy brought in didnt have a clue and dug up the track , which is now probably what is causing the holes to develop
  11. Should be a Tiggers win , hope some Monarch fans come through to support their team and make for a good atmosphere
  12. Good meeting , a bit rough on Bomber, he felt that he was taken out, should have been all 4 back and Mark Riss was a bit naughty with Claus Vissing. Some cracking racing , Erik Riss is becoming a very accomplished rider and his brother Mark is stepping up to the heat leader role, just needs a bit of consistency. For the Tiggers , Richie was immense , especially when the pressure was on. Nice to see young Jack get a point after his first 2 rides as he looked as though he was really struggling with the technical track. Didn't think we would have got a 5-1 in heat 14 , so well done Paul and James for stopping the momentum for the monarchs.
  13. Ben Barker is box office when he is in full flow, shame that he is inconsistent. That was what we were hoping for when we signed him in 2016.
  14. Was a good meeting very impressed with Jordan Stewart , the bears have a star there. We really missed a fully fit Paul Starke
  15. Workington were sharp from the gate and BWD had his best ever meeting at Glasgow. Good to see the progress that young Dan has made , would have loved to see him race like that last season as a Tiger. Well done to the Comets hope they can get the crowds back. Workington will take some stopping if they keep that form. Thank goodness for Lewis Kerr one man team today for the tigers
  16. Absolutely gutted that Stewart is leaving, he seemed happy on Friday, something must have happened. Wont be the same without him, he is the heart of Glasgow and the best tactician i have seen
  17. Sarge will be fine , he scored paid 4 and yes he has a bad habit of tape breaking that needs to be curbed but i am sure he will up his average this season, he was happy at Glasgow last time and fans will support him this season too, no point on getting on his back after 1 meeting.
  18. Track was hard packed and slick and a very very cold night but it was great to be back. Richie and James had an off night and will do better in the future. Was well impressed with young Jack Thomas did not expect that from his debut a star in the making for sure. Starke ,Kerr and Vissing were superb and for the Monarchs Erik Riss will be at no 1 before the end of the season, he improves year on year. Max Ruml showed some flashes and should do well once he gets to grips with the different tracks ..Matt Williamson had a good night and is very difficult to pass when he is in front, all in all it was ja cracking night , glad to be back ,would like a bit more dirt down for when bomber is back .
  19. Glasgow announce Jack Thomas to replace JPB
  20. Doesn't give us long to find a 2 pointer. I expect we may use Ryan McDonald for the first meeting, although it will be tough against the strong Monarch reserves
  21. do you still need at least 2 Brits in a team ?
  22. hahaha made me chuckle, have to say the money men posts are getting boring, envy is a terrible trait. We seem to have become the hated team of the championship alongside Poole in the Premiership
  23. doubt Bickley will be at Glasgow , more likely to be JPB
