Can you post a link to photographs that show that Garcia 'ended Bradley's season'. It appears he came off 3 times in the running of the heat; did he not learn anything?! However, there is video footage of Tom Bacon lifting and taking out 2 Glasgow riders at Somerset. There are photo sequences of Rohan Tungate taking out Richie Worral and of Paul Starke wiping out Danny Ayres and Rene Bach in the Glasgow KO cup match and then Master Bates getting off his bike and assaulting Rene Bach in the LC final. So yes you have left Glasgow riders battered and bruised

Good luck from a Glasgow fan

We've had good entertainment most of the year; close racing, overtakes, riders in control or apparently so, crowd getting involved, people cheering and enjoying themselves! Sadly the tracks preparation for all 3 Somerset matches, including the one we won didn't serve up any entertainment

Like a lot of posters I can't work out why we seemed to prepare the track to put of the rebels riders. Aaron has been ill for a while with flu/virus, so presumably a bit weaker than normal; Nike was coming back from hand injuries; Rene, Danny and Fernando in particular have all been in the wars and not 100% yet we prepare a track that is deep, wet and not easy to ride. Sure it put off Tungate but it also put off most of the tigers. The last 2 home meetings were against the rebels and neither of them could be classed as being entertaining. we've persuaded new fans to attend and old ones to return and they wonder what all the fuss is about and yet a few weeks ago the whole team were racing and I mean racing and everyone was going home with a smile on there face and looking forward to the next sunday. Quite frankly if the wife asks me to cut the grass next sunday I might just do it and watch paulcos updates!

Half a rider would be missing - you've really lost it 👤

Decent reaction from a speedway fan that just happens to be a monarch. Aaron spoke over the tannoy at the end of last weeks meeting and I thought somethings gone wrong with the Pa as it didn't sound like him - a bit deep and hoarse, now we know why. On the other hand Dr Blobby has spoken. I assume you'll understand that thanks to your PR skills your likelihood of a decent attendance on Friday has just plummetted.

It's meaningless. Surprised Rene and Coty are riding thought they'd be wrapped in cotton wool. Really need them fully fit for Sunday and Saturday for that matter, we shouldn't take anything for granted. At least the weather forecast looks ok for all 3 days. Hope the fish has a safe meeting and all fans applaud him at the end.

That was a 'hard' meeting with tigers riders taking the brunt, some brilliant action photos on official facebook page and fans discussion facebook page. Hope Rene,coty and Danny are ok not to mention there bikes. Richie seems to be ok but his bike was a bit bent. We need them all for next weekend so rest up lads

Well said 'idea' and thanks to Blobby i'll keep my money for more important away matches. who else isn't going through to the dump

Good to hear that you will be back next year. With all the rain you've had it must have been difficult financially. It wouldn't be the same without 2 Scottish teams.

Sadly I think monarchs will do it 😞 it's rained all year at Armadale and the moanarchs are used to there heavy trick track. Only king will score well as the other witches struggle with the track 😢 hope I m wrong and witches sweep the floor with them

Sorry thought this was a Glasgow V Somerset thread. Anyway thankfully we've been able to get a new date sorted and we now stage the 2nd leg on Sunday 2 October at 3pm. Expecting a Young Scotsman or two from the east, just hoping the forecast is correct and we don't get a Cyclone

Anyone got any idea when it will be restaged?

Absolute classic. When Glasgow fans make a logical comment you think they are whinging but its ok for rebels to point out they were unlucky? So lets be fair you got beat so stop whingeing. And I'll tell you now James will score more than Bradley, get well soon, so don't for a second suggest you are weakened for Sunday. We're without Nike, who has been brilliant recently and Rene and Coty plus there bikes are battered and bruised. So will be close but we do have a 4 point advantage so here's hoping for an aggregate win

I'm not the best with grammar so don't worry when people get things wrong BUT since your being pedantic you should always start a sentence with a capital and end sentences with a full stop! You really don't get it - he scored 13 points, 11 more than when he rode for his own team and 13 more that Zach would have scored; so you got the roll of the dice. Yes you should be proud of your top 4 and yes hope all riders don't miss any or too many meetings.

Not good to see any rider injured. Bit surprised Somerset didn't name a no 8. Ok it might not have helped that much but at least he could take advantage of an ef or fall. Sure Glasgow will name someone for Sunday. Anyway a win is a win so we still have a chance to reach the 🏆 final. Don't forget the rebels will have there top 5 available on Sunday plus a guest for Bradley who was poor in the league match. So its not over yet.

Somerset won at Glasgow because they had Dan bewley in there team, that is a fact. We're not talking about other matches or what will happen on Sunday but what happened that day. Bewley was simply unbelievable.

Good to see panthers fans sticking by there team. I'm sure they won't let you down no matter who is riding 😉

Feel sorry for the moanarchs. The weather forecast is ok for the first time this year at Armadale and they have a meaningless fixture and no prospect of any visiting fans. if it had been a play-off match I'm sure some tigers fans who can't get to Somerset would have come through.

This weeks quiz 1. Can Glasgow get revenge for there two defeats by Somerset in the league? 2. What do Somerset do around heat 8 when they suddenly start to hammer the opposition? 3. Will Zach be back and if not who guests? 4. Can Glasgow use t/r (Somerset won't need to) or does common sense operate in the cup? 5. Are any Rebels fans coming up for the 2nd leg? 6. Who will get into the final?

Remember the league cup. Does anyone know the other semi finalists? Well for Tigers fans this is the start of a run of important fixtures and lets hope there recent form continues. The first leg should have been last week but it was turned into a league fixture and the tigers won by a thumping 51-39 which would have made Sunday's match a bit of a formality.BUT this is speedway and things can change very quickly. I expect and hope for a tigers win but everyone says it, on paper worky are a good team so we need to hit them hard from heat 1. Tigers will line up: 1. Richard 2. Nike 3. Richie. 4. Rene. 5. Aaron 6. Coty 7. Danny TM Stewart D WORKINGTON 'Thomas Armstrong' COMETS 1 Ricky Wells © 2 Mason Campton 3 Kenneth Hansen 4 Rasmus Jensen 5 Claus Vissing 6 Adam Roynon 7 Matt Williamson TM - Tony Jackson. SCB Referee - Jim McGregor.

Edinburgh fans don't know what fair weather means. It's rained virtually every Friday this year. But I'm sure they'll make you welcome when you travel up to support the panthers

You actually think that both teams will be at full strenght at the end of October and that people will actually turn up to a damp dismal Armadale to watch

I thought Glasgow were doing you a favour just in case you needed to win on Friday to qualify.

Two teams up for it usually means good racing.
