  1. So your saying that it has to be about money and nothing to do with the UK home track not suiting his style of riding ? I mean it's not like you've had a recent rider just bolt because he didnt have the track craft to ride Armadale. Dont have to spend millions to get good speedway or have a positive impact to the sport, your own club a prime example, racing at Armadale is regularly entertaining and your club are heavily involved in youth development in the sport, neither of which you can say about Poole. Rage bait 3/10 btw, effort was decent, originality disappointing. Come on Blobby I expected a higher caliber of troll than the old 'money' whinge.

  3. You mean Glasgow spend money on dirt,equipment, facilities for the riders instead of trips to Vegas, big win bonuses for only the 1st match of the season against Glasgow. Are the financial reasons that bad you cant afford some dirt, diesel to run more than one tractor and get your track man an extra pair of hands ?! As for affording Nagel ,what exactly you talking about? The no sign on fee, uses club bike/and club mechanic (who only charges fuel and food), the fact he showed interest in coming to Glasgow after the SGP2 before Glasgow even approached him And your knowledge of the Workington situation isnt even worth commenting on, other than if you think you know half a story take it as you know hee haw. As for the ref's decisions, is what it is, after 15 heats Poole won, no complaints here, thats sports. But there is absolutely no excuse to scrape the track bare on every grade. Tracks come alive after heat 7, Wimborne becames a soulless dirt track after heat 7. If you have a win at all costs attitude then fair play thats your call, but lets stop the BS denial of what you do to achieve that win, and the impact that has for fan entertainment and the core fundamental of bikes riding on dirt. Ironically your team building would still be as strong as they are now with a home track prepared and graded to actually race on,only difference is fans would see what speedway should look like on a regualr basis and not just a handful of heats here and there.
  4. Some good racing tonight from both teams, and a last heat decider to finish off another terrific Scottish Derby. Glasgow showing a bit of grit to pull through a chaotic night , Edinburgh pushed all the way. Fair play to both teams for an entertaining night of speedway.
  5. A comment that clearly shows you know absolutely hee haw about the true facts, so best leave the rocket science to others
  6. Between Max & Freddy ,they have score 32 , paid 38 in their last 4 matches in 7 days (2 home 2 away)
  7. If its slick then Redcar has every chance of winning, if there's material then i think it can swing in Glasgows favour.
  8. Slick and the material produced powdery. Some decent racing but below par for Ashfield IMHO.
  9. So your saying ripping open the starts when rain is due is the same as Belle Vue having to deal with a completely saturated track ?! 2 completely different reasons for poor track conditions, only one of which was individual fault. But then again no doubt your legal expertise will make you a track expert as well.
  10. Or simply a promotion that is passing on its experience in growing its fan base to give Worky a fighting chance of becoming the success that it deserves to be. Since the Facenna's took over Glasgow, they have spent 10 years trying to build the fan base in a city that only see's green or blue and have seen what works and what doesn't work, if Worky can benefit from that 10 years experience along side the business experience of Allied then that can only be good for British Speedway.
  11. Well let's hope 3,000 fans didnt go to watch speedway because that was a disgrace. As for track staff working very hard, working very hard on what exactly, couldnt even keep the dust down on a bald track. Blue groove by heat 5, home and away riders complaining about a bare bumpy track. Say what you want about Glasgows team but bottomline your track is an embarrassment to speedway.
  12. A respectable track would be better for the sport.
