Despite all the people having a wee dig at our side , I'm perfectly happy with it . We have a nine point man at number one and three supporting heat leaders all capable of improving on their starting average . Aaron was our rider of the season last year and I expect him to carry on where he left off . Ben Barker and Richie Worrall are far better riders than their averages suggest and both ride Ashfield well . As for the three other lads , Garcia and Lunna have only had one season over here , so who knows what kind of improvement might be in them and Danny Ayres seems to be a late starter at speedway , but his job is to beat the opposition number 7 rider , if he can do that on a regular basis , then all well and good .

The point was made earlier in this thread about the admission price at Glasgow being dropped to £15 last season making the increase for 2016 to £17-50 all the more eye watering . But what do we do ? We love our speedway , so there's no alternative but to pay the hike .

Ok , I don't read Faceache , so fair enough , we will know the final three

That's fair comment . But the general consensus from the Speedway attending public , on various threads on the Speedway discussions section , is that speedway is too expensive for the level of entertainment on offer , a £2-50 hike just confirms that view . I paid £17 to get into Kings Lynn last season , is it possible we could be on par or even more expensive than some Elite League venues in 2016 ?

I would doubt all 3 would be announced

They like to make an announcement at the Winter Stars night , and there's one on Saturday , so maybe then

Bit of a hike from £15 last season

When they held the Benfund meeting there !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! now that was what you call cold

If Nick Morris decides to do PL , then i think he'll be back at the Oak Tree

Too many fixture clashes with Coventry

Would be nice if it were possible In our Shawfield days it was the norm

Was Richard's signing only announced today ? I read about it in the Speedway Star this morning !!!!!!!!!!! did the Speedway Star scoop the internet and Mr Blobby ???????????? deary me

I'm sure it's all under control

That's the cold weather . Anyway not the most surprising signing , most of us expected him back . But I'm delighted nevertheless

Distance wouldn't be an issue as we'd just fly him up and back in the club Lear Jet . Anyway those of us who aren't of the " I know something you don't know " variety of supporter just throw names about on here to keep us amused . It's what gets us through the long , dark speedwayless winter months . And also , in the wake of the sorry Kevin Wolbert saga , from now on any prospective Tiger will have to pass the fit and proper person investigation first . If any said person has watched at least three episodes of Rebus , bought a Proclaimers CD , been tempted to go to a Hearts or Hibs football match , possess a blue and gold t-shirt or jacket , ate shortbread and have a liking for riding on trams , then they are barred from wearing the Stripes .

We only have his side right enough , and yes he has been a far better rider for Edinburgh than I thought he would when he signed

Fair comment , but some sort of contact to explain the position would have been courteous

We don't really know that he hasn't . Some clubs like a big announcement of their 1-7 at the same time , others like to drip feed the signings over a period of time . We seem to be in the latter bracket

He seems a wee bit miffed with Edinburgh

Think oor Gordon wanted to introduce them to Matt Ford . No doubting that if anything was to be learned from another club , it makes sense to go to the consistently most successful

I'll do the jokes

Could be as potent a pair as Corey Blackman and Barry Campbell were

I don't see Ellis riding for Glasgow and slumming it with Poole being a major issue . Poole ride on a Wednesday and the occasional Monday for the telly , so minimal fixture clashes as there are no PL meetings on those days

Yes , I'd agree with that

Why wouldn't he want to live the speedway rider's dream and become a Glasgow Tiger . Only GP status is a higher accolade in the sport
