  1. Poole fans leaving early 😂😂😂😂 An absolute rarity in speedway after watching your team just fall short of winning every trophy available. Plastic fans with an absolute embarrassment of a track.
  2. Rushen and Nagel who are both young riders probably made more passes this season alone than a rider like Richard Lawson has in his entire career. You either have ‘it’ or not IMO when it comes to that department.
  3. We might as well get the talk going for next season since our season is now officially finished. Looks like it is going to be 2 leagues again and with Harris already signed his first contract of the season I feel like if it was Glasgow it would have been announced last night. I would happily take him back though, he is still the main man. Villads Nagel - not coming back. Dan Thompson - might be slowly approaching the bigger and better things point but I reckon he would still benefit from another season in the championship. I would take Dan back for next season but his average is maybe a bit high now. Leon Flint - I would not take Flint back he started the season extremely poor then picked it up more so for Sheffield then slightly tailed off again. Flint can definitely do a job but is just a bit unreliable for me. Kyle Howarth - would not be disappointed either way if he left or was re-signed. He had a great season overall but I would maybe lean towards finding someone else if I was pushed. Freddie Hodder - There is a racer in there somewhere but just not sure if we could afford carrying another 2 reserves that have the potential to score 0 points in a meeting. The number 6 position is more important than ever in speedway it seems these days. Max Perry - Definitely improved over the season and seemed to be getting faster. I think both his crashes set him back slightly but as a rising star/2.00 rider I would probably sign him up again. One change I would definitely make would be a new team manager.
  4. Not a bad imaginary trophy to have in fairness. What a night of racing that is just the complete norm at Ashfield now. Not one person in the stadium or on BSN left that meeting disappointed aside from tigers fans with the result. The tigers gave absolutely everything and once we were level on aggregate everything that went before became irrelevant because we had them where we wanted them and unfortunately it was just not to be. That heat 15 from bomber was phenomenal he was so far behind in last place and then about a bend behind in second place but put it on the line to keep the meeting alive. Howarth was the correct choice in both races also, sadly it was just not to be. The only frustrating thing for me was in the super heat he made the gate and instead of doing what he had done all night which was run everybody and anybody up to the fence he stuck to the inside and that was that. Disappointing to win the league overall and come away with 0 trophies but I will say what I seem to say most seasons now. I would rather be entertained like that every week and finish second than watch FTG processional tripe and win. Congratulations to the Facenas on another great season and thanks to everybody at Glasgow for all their hard work throughout.
  5. I wish I had your outlook on life as you must be so easy to please. You probably found the parade extremely exciting as well? @TheWellBehavedWorrall Could type up scripture off the back of this post. Complete and utter delusion but whatever makes you happy I suppose.
  6. The track was set up for nobodies liking though… Anders Rowe found that out when he was all over the back of both Glasgow riders until he went wide and went backwards. The track is embarrassing to the sport. Old ‘arry must have been thinking what have I got myself into here after being bored out his mind watching that dross.
  7. But @mikebv is saying nobody has a clue and the object is to win at all costs? Basically f**k the paying public and the people who prop up this sport you will get what you are given.
  8. I think to Glasgow fans it is obvious just how terrible the sport can be away from glorious Ashfield and especially so with this track.
  9. @Mr Blobby 0 passes and thats over half the meeting complete. Do you have any further back up for this tripe track?
  10. Truly beautiful to watch the track preparation completely back fire when your own riders cannot get by the away riders.😂😂
  11. Lol. Tatum is the worst commentator in the history of sport and it is not even close.
  12. The trouble is this is exactly what gets people hyped up about young riders. If you compare Ace Pijper and Will Cairns only one of them looks like a future top level speedway rider. Pijpers style is absolutely honking yet over recent form his scores have been tremendous. On the other hand cairns looks the part but he has not really done much scoring wise of late. But if you had to back one to go on and ‘make it’ you would pick cairns purely on ability on a bike. Pijper looks like he is just wobbling round trying his best to finish 4 laps and Cairns is as smooth as butter. Styles lure people into thinking riders are better than they are I suppose the likes of Adam Ellis, Lewis Bridger and Ashton Boughen etc back that up.
  13. From watching the replay multiple times I am not sure if a supporter was struck or not. The footage is not great but I am wondering if they maybe abandoned it due to the state of the fence? Best wishes regardless, if anybody was injured.
  14. Not sure but one thing I can tell you is Kelvin Tatum will be studying it hard over the winter to make sure his knowledge is air tight so he can perform his commentary job at the highest level possible. No doubt about that.

  16. I need one more ‘no doubt about that’ from Kelvin before I can switch this off for 2025.
  17. The same guy who moans about the clingers on getting in for free now seems to back up jobs for the boys when they are so far out their depth portraying the sport to the wider public. Pick a side mate, make up your mind.
  18. That move from him on Justin Sedgmen which solidified the end of your teams season still keeping you up at night, yeah?

  20. The bare minimum in any sport is to give your all and not give up though…
  21. Hahahahahaha Kelvin Tatum trying to wrap his head around this heat is absolute comedy gold. 😂😂
