I hope Craig proves the doubters wrong. He made all the other riders look daft at Ashfield when he visited this season. He’s incredible to watch when he’s on it.

A very disappointing announcement. I don't think I'll bother with a season ticket next year, and I know others who feel the same. There's not enough speedway to make it worth organising my Fridays around it any more. I love all the investment in the stadium at Ashfield but I frequently wonder, will it be of any use in five years' time?

Yes, I really think they need to dictate a dedicated development place at #7 for each team. I would insist they must get 4 rides too.

Absolutely no-one.

If he paid his fine and submitted the hair samples required in the terms of his original ban, he'd have been eligible to ride this year.

Can't say I really care either way which team wins, and from the footage there was, I was unconvinced anyone had shown beyond any reasonable doubt Zach had fully crossed the line, but to accept he had and then say "never mind, the result's wrong but we won't change it", especially when it's the final, is abysmal. British speedway is such an embarrassingly amateur sport.

That doesn’t really feel like news tbh 😄

Only lose once in the Scottish Cup though 😁

Yeah. It's a meeting. It's that or nothing. Make it a fun one - couldn't care less who rides for either side tbh.

The back injury flares up whenever he goes over the speed bumps entering Armadale. Shouldn’t be an issue in Czechia.

Glasgow aren’t going to race in the Premiership.

I believe a couple of Poole’s 2024 reserves might complete the lineup.

Which perhaps tells you that Glasgow don't pay the megabucks some people think they do - otherwise they'd be taking it!

Mario is not by a worst signing in recent years (Ivacic was a shocker), but there is zero chance Mario comes back next year.

Lambert has more sprint points than anyone else this season. Kurtz also has more than Zmarzlik.

Odd placings go in LCQ1. Even placings go in LCQ2.

Sounds like you’re basically sacking the whole team, so who do you want?

I think Mario was signed purely off the back of that one good meeting in SoN2.

Perhaps if Mario had shown an interest in practicing around Ashfield, he’d have found he had an home advantage. It’s total nonsense to say there’s no home advantage for Glasgow riders, it’s just an excuse when we lose. Most of the clubs that apparently have a home advantage get beaten at home more than Glasgow.

Damned guests, costing us again 🙃

If it’s 2 home + 2 away, yes. If it’s the same as this year, probably not.

Even as a season ticket holder, I have missed meetings this season because racing has been so sporadic I just can’t justify keeping Fridays clear when there are so few meetings to go to. The sign outside Ashfield says “every Friday March-October”. This season, we’ve only had enough meetings for every second Friday, April-August.

It’s not just rider availability. Track staff, first aiders, and other volunteers in stadiums also take holidays. If you don’t have enough of those around, you also can’t put on a meeting.

Prediction: GLA 45-45 POO

Well Leon helped dump Glasgow out of the BSN guesting for Berwick 😄
