Very fitting for when Poole are relegated to the NDL next season. 🙊

Sore weekend for Workington.

I heard ISIS have contacted BSN for a copy of tonight’s meeting, since waterboarding is losing its effect.

Garry May hanging around after the manager interviews for a cuddle?

Glasgow win, but speedway loses tonight.

Brilliant. Superb from Kemp and Harris. That ended up being 32 minutes between heats. Wild.

That was a 25 minutes gap between heats twelve and thirteen, by the way. Why? Shocking. And still we wait for heat thirteen. This is brutal and I’m a Glasgow fan.

That boy on commentary with Roynon has just said fans won’t complain about the entertainment value tonight. Drug test him immediately. Do not let him drive home.

Even that van watering the track is struggling to get round.😂

Can she grade a track?

100%. The tracks a shambles.

Superb from Thompson and Hodder. Poor from Trigger, throwing his steel shoe behind him in plain sight of his mechanic who then has to walk past him to collect it. A bit of respect son.

First pass of the night and it’s heat eleven. You’ll never see Chris Harris look more uncomfortable making a pass either.

Look at the state of this.😂 It’s like they’ve given all four riders a pint of vodka before the race. Navigating the apex of those top bends is like watching them walk a tight rope.

Bowtell unfortunate to be excluded, but the referee definitely made a mistake with the two minutes. Trigger was replaced, then Kennedy was timed out. Trigger didn’t even have a helmet on, so don’t give us it. Outstanding from Boughen though. Massive win. Has there been a pass beyond the second bend? A dreadful advert for speedway. Those third and fourth bends are wild.

What? Reckless and out of control, Polis. He’s fortunate Harris’ avoid his erratic move on the second bend, never mind survive to accident to partake in the rerun.

If this meeting was happening in my garden, I’d close the curtains. Tracks like this are a detriment to speedway. Three heats in and we’re waiting, watching that monstrosity of a circuit attempt to be improved.

Please explain how you ”don’t see why not”.😂 Spare us the criticism of Batchelor because there isn’t a single poster on this forum who would suggest he’s anything other than a disgrace.

Howarth out tonight as a direct result of Polis’ recklessness and erratic riding. Brutal.

I think this is a bit of a naive/immature perspective.

There’s a happy medium between scoring double figures every week and everything I listed: on the end of two 5-1s, only beating two opposing teenagers and conceding the match winning points to one of said teenagers. I keep agreeing - this is the third time - that Thomson and Grahn were awful, but my point is there’s a bigger picture.

I thought Boughen did incredibly well to keep Thomson at bay in heat eight. He’s 17 years-old; he’s arguably a victim of his own success and Glasgow’s team building strategy in finding himself in the main body of the team, but one thing that’s for certain is he has the backing of the fans at Ashfield. You’d have thought we took a heat advantage in that race, given the reaction he received. It’s a lot of pressure on a young man; many, including myself, would have crumbled at that age, but with the ability that got him here, the support of the club, the captain and the fans, I’m in absolutely no doubt he’ll play a key part in Glasgow’s season. Speaking to other fans, it’s clear I’m not the only Glasgow fan who feels privileged to be catering this exciting young man’s development.

Ruthless from Scunthorpe.😂 While I wholeheartedly agree, it’s somewhat unprofessional if that is indeed a direct quote from Scunthorpe’s official website. As I said last night, there’s more to this situation than meets the eye. Your captain and number one doesn’t fail to complete four laps across four races without in his mind, reason. Three weeks ago, Workington were applauded for their judgement and in their decision to retain Batchelor over Cook who, as far the paying public knew, was still AWOL at Berwick. It’s a funny old game, speedway.

I’m a good guy, so I’m resisting the urge to sarcastically respond to your ”he scored paid 6” comment regarding your captain who was on the tail end of two 5-1s, only finished ahead of two opponents (17 year-old Boughen and 19 year-old Hodder) and was then beaten by one of those young boys in a heat which secured victory for Glasgow. Thomson and Grahn; shocking, but that captain’s armband is looking a little too heavy for Castagna.

Just watched the meeting back on BSN. I’ve never seen a rider purposely retire while in third place, subsequently blocking his fourth placed teammate in the process. One of the most bizarre things I’ve ever seen in speedway. There’s more to it than we know. There must be. Your number one and captain doesn’t put on a show like that without reason.
