Wonder if we'll go down the guest route once again or try r/r for Ulrich. Take away Craig Cook and I think both teams are fairly evenly matched with most of the Berwick team having had good performances at Ashfield. Interesting to see how they perform on a track where overtaking is the norm rather than just before bend 2. I'll go for a Tigers win but it will be closer than a lot of people think which should then make the 2nd leg very interesting.

Or maybe, as Fromafar mentioned above, track conditions changed markedly due to heavy rain after which all race times became slower. -
Edinburgh vs Glasgow - 23/07/21

Don't see the Tigers winning this one. Too many rumours of changes doesn't help particularly if you are the rider (s) being targeted by fans. -

Buy a ticket for the live stream, that way you don't have to read biased updates from a Glasgow fan -

It's really nice to read so many positive posts on here, I can understand why the sport is doing so well in East Anglia. -

He had two options, bikes remain in the yard and locked away for the rest of the day or left in the street whilst he waited for his 'friend' to arrive. He chose the street. But go ahead and believe what you like, you'll be saying next that Armadale has a Speedway Track. -

Spot on. After a glorious week of warm weather in Glasgow it starts to rain at Ashfield not long before tapes-up and kept on going until it was called off. Other parts of the central belt had little or no rain apparently, just our luck. Feel sorry for those that travelled up from England. -

Hope you have a nice break. Just in case, remember to purchase online tickets to ensure entry. -
We had hoped to have had more Brits in the team and thought about Adam Ellis but he was born in France. We wondered if Mark Loram could be persuaded to make a comeback but he was born in Malta. Meanwhile we were keen to welcome back Connor Bailey as he was not only an up and coming rider but also a decent personable young man. He was signed for last year and was on the BSPL rising star list for 2021. Unfortunately he was prevented initially from returning to the UK due to the Covid pandemic. So alls well that ends well. Welcome back Connor.

Another good entertaining match on Friday. When Kennett won heat 5 followed home by Tom Brennan I thought here we go and then when Jake Knight and Brennan did the same in heat 8 for the Eagles to take a 2 point lead I thought this is going to be tougher than I even thought. In the end the result looked comfortable but it was a lot closer than the score looks helped by a sublime ride by Cook in heat 15 - see https://fb.watch/6o4VUQd9rr/

You've clearly not been looking. He is in the country and putting a couple of bikes together and hopes to be racing soon.

This should be a cracker with the return of Richard Lawson and Lewis Kerr, not to mention the very impressive Tom Brennan. Kennett and Newman are no slouches and Drew Kemp had some impressive laps at Saturday's GP qualifier. Their rising star is Jason Edwards who scored 13 points and finished third in the British Under 21 semi final at Redcar recently. This will be close and I'd imagine a fair number of Eastbourne fans and Tigers 'haters' will be purchasing the live stream at only £11.95 - see link Home | Glasgow Tigers Speedway You have to register and then follow the onscreen instructions. As a taster of the the action, here's two heats from the Grand Prix qualifier https://fb.watch/v/arjRfeFG9/ and https://fb.watch/v/1M7HJe1kT/
