  1. Clearly you are going by the result rather than the team tracked. You were missing the two Ben's and had Alfie Bowtell and James Wright as guests. Rory only scored 6, Stefan got 4+2. Charles Wright has the same average as Rory, 17 against Leicester last night and is normally good for double figures everywhere. Ruml scored 7+2(6) for Plymouth at Leicester only 3 weeks ago. One paper I would say you look stronger, just need to get out of the starts quicker than Leicester
  2. Thanks, should have known the BSPL website green sheets weren't up to date. Even the preview listed Ben Cook at reserve. That'll weaken Poole now.
  3. Why was Ben Cook riding at 4 tonight? Has he ridden 4 away meetings? Per BSPL green sheet @ 01/09/21 he is still on 4pt assessed average and Stefan Nilsen on 4.51 Was Gary Havelock the team manager tonight?
  4. It says on Twitter subject to BSPL approval, their office will be shut for the weekend and Monday as it's a bank holiday in England. Glasgow are assuming he can come in on a 5 point assessed average, however he did ride in the Polish Ekstraliga for Grudziadz in 2015 & 2016 but that was as an under 21 rider.
  5. Can I use the spread stretcher please? Jason Doyle £100 more Emil £50 more
  6. That works fine, both lower averages than the rider being replaced. Ostergaard 7.96, Lewis Kerr 7.12 Wells 6.49, Tom Brennan 6.09 However I think they will just look to find a permanent replacement for Ulrich. At this moment Kerr's the better rider but we are not the only team missing an injured rider. Brennan has been given guest bookings, so he must to be the front runner .
  7. The level of rider in the championship is not the problem, it's the fact that there is no elite riders in the UK so second tier riders are doubling up. Team averages every year are being lower so the standard in the championship is going down. If they were to say introduce a rule that you could only have two riders over say 7.5 in a team then there might be enough heat leaders to go round.
  8. I know we are spoilt with the quality of racing at Glasgow but I have seen better racing at what I would call trick tracks Armadale, Berwick, Plymouth and Wolverhampton this season than I saw on Sunday. You will get close racing if there's a road block out in front stacking up the riders behind on the only racing line. Maybe that's good for the home fans when it's only the away riders that are making the mistake of drifting out wide. Max Clegg was ahead of James Wright each time they rode together, maybe he was protecting the inside line. He rode well but was gifted points, unless he passed a rider down the back straight on the first lap all of his passes were up the inside. In heat 3 he was stuck behind Sam Jensen for 4 laps. Heat 5 Craig Cook moved first, Max reacted to this and ended up getting a flyer. Heat 9 he was on the wrong end of a 5-1 until Sedgmen drifted out wide after 3 laps to gift him second. Heat 14 Jensen lead for 3 laps until checking out the dog track and letting him through for the win. Heat 15 he was last until Cook went out wide trying to pass Ben Barker which let Clegg through for third. I don't know where THJ saw this outside line. Ben Barker was busting a gut trying make the outside work, as was Steve Worrall and Craig Cook. Unless you got a slingshot out of bend 2 down the back straight on the first lap it was very difficult to pass.
  9. This was definitely not one of the best meetings ever at Newcastle, I have seen Glasgow lose there many times but still seen some great racing round Brough Park but not on Sunday. This was the worst meeting I have been to this season it was FTG in the most part then follow the leader round the curb because if you went out wide you went backwards. The referee didn't help matters by holding the tapes really long. Riders from both sides were moving, as starts were so important. The scores being close throughout does not make it a thriller when you do not see any overtaking, that would be tense . Prepare a race track and you might be entertained. Credit to the Newcastle riders on their hard fought victory. Adam Roynon was outstanding hopefully he can continue in this vain and avoid injury.
  10. Zmarzlik £25 more Woffinden £25 less Lambert £25 more Emil £25 less
  11. The Leaping Salmon was showing the rugby - South Africa v Lions last Saturday and there's another test match this Saturday at 5pm, so GP won't be on in there
  12. I am watching on the Eurosport app via Amazon Firestick and there is no commentary on it. But I've a programme on an app so I'm happy with no comms
  13. Isn't that a bonus? Do you really want to listen to Dave Rowe & Sam Ermolenko talking nonsense.
  14. Yesterday went so bad I thought I'd be out of this. Can I use the spread stretcher to improve my chances. No idea whether it applies to all bets or just the first one? Zmarzlik £50 more Woffinden £50 more Madsen £50 more Dudek £50 less
