  1. Jake Allen will ride on Sunday as the 9 day ban starts on the day of the injury
  2. I am guessing now that with all this bad weather and Edinburgh needing to get the matches on the said superior covers will be getting used every week from now on
  3. Hello Cyclone remember me one of the former directors who was sacked by the club!!!!!!! I was just having a look at your post above and felt I had to come on here and correct you as once again you have got your facts wrong, now there is a surprise. I did see the photo that Dimitri posted of his kit waiting to be picked up by his mate but the picture was not taken out side his lodgings it was taken out side of the workshop he was using in Hawthorn Street if it had been taken out side his lodgings you would have seen a very nice Victorian sandstone villa in the G14 Kelvinside area of the West end of Glasgow. Which if you asked Phil Spencer he would tell you it is a very desirable area of Glasgow.
  4. Think Bjerre must be the first visiting No.1 to watch heat 15 from the changing room door
  5. Christ that was quick I thought you were still on FB posting
  6. Nice to see your informant letting you down Blobby it appears that Belle Vue are calling the shots when it comes to Dan
  7. I wonder how many of them will still be in the team come September
  8. So everyone is putting this result down to Edinburgh's first match but if you add up who many meetings each rider has raced in 2016 I think you will find the Edinburgh have had more meetings that the Glasgow ones.
  9. So Cyclone I thought I would reply to your post to state the truth direct from Snapper's mouth rather than the BS you have posted. Last year was always going to be a learning curve for the new owners and they left the club management roles as they were as they looked at all aspects of the club to see what worked and what didn't. At the end of the season they then met with each director to discuss their plans for 2016 and the future, part of this discussion was that each of the directors stood down from their position and so removed the financial responsibility hanging over our heads ( my wife was very pleased with this change) and then joined the Tigers management team. At no time during my meeting in November do I remember being given "the bullet" infact Gerry was very pleased with my performance during 2015. So I would suggest you remove your offending and factually incorrect post before "lettera procurators legal" arrive. But just to cover myself to make sure that I have got my facts correct as the meeting was 4 months ago I will ask Gerry for his recollections tomorrow night when we are out for dinner and if I have got any of my facts wrong I will come back on and correct them. Regards Ian "Snapper" Adam
  10. Mr Blobby, just heard Belle Vue are objecting as it turns out you are not fielding a Proper Edinburgh team on Friday night. Poor show Blobby
  11. I have always wondered why the riders need to take their phones out with them while on track is it a new app that allows them to dial into the track.
  12. Yes I am barred from all Speedway meetings at Armadale, a bit silly but there you are
  13. Going to be a strange one as in the club PR they say the owners have become good supporters of the speedway so you think the club would want to support the application by the owners but if it goes through they have basically signed their own eviction order when a offer from a house builder is made to the the stadium owners. I would hope that the club had a plan B in place for a new location hopefully nearer Edinburgh maybe they had a private chat with the council during the civic reception last month.
  14. So does this mean that the Monarchs fully support the change in planning conditions or will they be asking the fans to object to it, interesting situation for all parties
  15. I am sure Zagar did ride at Ashfield once Just checked my files 09/05/04 he rode at No.5 not sure if I can post pics on here so here is a link to a pic of him chasing Shane Parker http://www.ianadam.co.uk/Temp/
  16. Point 3 is understandable i would not like to travel to Armadale on a Friday night it would freeze your bits off when you get there
  17. I have heard it said that the Play Off Final DVD was the biggest seller at Armadale in 2015 which is great as Glasgow received 50% for every one sold Cheers guys
  18. Pretty poor comment considering one of the gentlemen suffered a heart attack and was rushed into surgery straight from the track.
  19. I will stand corrected if wrong but I believe that NL clubs are not allowed to own riders
  20. I don't normally post on here an these are my views and not of the club. I noticed tonight that there was a comment that one of the posters feels that me and my fellow directors are on an ego trip. Don't think that I agree with this as being a director of the club is a bit like having a second job but the difference is that this one does not pay in fact it costs and for some of us it is also a 7 day a week job. Also there was another comment that why do we need so many, we have 5 directors a quick look at other clubs sees Newcastle - 4, Edinburgh - 8, Berwick - 3 and Workington - 3 so not all that different from other clubs also more people means more hands to do the work. Just my tuppence worth
