  1. It's quite simply the biggest rivalry in British speedway , so sometimes it's going to get a wee bit messy on here . It's all good fun really
  2. Given all the bile coming out of Edinburgh , we must be doing something right . Welcome to the Stripes Ben , an exciting signing for us .
  3. This might be a long shot , but I'm guessing you support Edinburgh
  4. Exactly , I've nothing against Glasgow riders doubling up , but I want us to have first call on their services
  5. Aaron is a predictable , but welcome opening signing . Not surprised James and Victor wont be with us next year . James missed too many Friday away meetings due to his Coventry commitments , we cant have that any more . Similarly Victor missed midweek fixtures because of Swedish meetings . We need seven riders who Glasgow have first call on . Can see Victor ending up at Rye House , had easily his best away meeting there
  6. I still get shivers when I remember the atmosphere going into heat 15 at Shawfield in 1992 when Glasgow beat Cradley . Would love to see this competition back , but with all the doubling up there would undoubtably be clashes where there are riders who ride for both clubs . So for that reason I cant see it ever happening again .
  7. The Stars night there back in February was very good , but I understand your point of view . I'd be reluctant if it was held at Parkhead , can't please everyone I suppose .
  8. Didn't inconvenience Kevin Wolbert too much in his average quest in 2014
  9. Going back to the Masters / Pedersen confrontation , it's about time mechanics stuck to just readying the bikes , seems they all think they are their rider's minder as well .
  10. Ignore him , I'd be amazed if both Aaron and Richard weren't back next year . Worrall certainly appeals , his average isn't what it should be , he's pretty decent round Ashfield , and the dump for that matter , though he did blot his copybook during the league meeting with Somerset when he had an altercation with Aaron
  11. Strange , with Cook seemingly leaving the PL behind , I would have thought Edinburgh could have kept the rest of this year's side together . Slamming Sam , Sedgmen and Wolbert would still make up an adequate heat leader trio
  12. I don't see that myself , there is the same rivalry between other clubs , but at the moment we both are challenging for cups and titles which makes the rivalry a bit more heated by some It's utter nonsense mate
  13. His best days are now behind him , he's on his current average for a reason Now if you want to pass Jack Holder in our direction , that's a different matter
  14. Victor is ok when he gates , hasn't got the racer bit in him to try and come from the back if he doesn't .
  15. That's nothing to do with it , we'd be boxing each other if that was the case . Tigers and Monarchs have had this going on for as long as I can remember , it's called derby rivalry and sometimes it gets a bit more fever pitch than other times
  16. Well as we are now into the silly season , that's two outlandish nailed on Tigers I've heard about . A Monarch acquaintance of mine was trying to convince me that Glasgow had done a deal to bring Peter Karlsson to Ashfield next year . Well we do already have Michael Max there I suppose
  17. I think Mr Fisher is done here now , his future is cleaning up in individual meetings round Costa Mesa with his pal Janniero
  18. Nughty , naughty . That would be like the Devils having a Falcon on their racejacket
  19. Oh well , that's that then . Disappointed , but not surprised . Well done Edinburgh , deserved champs yet again , but I'm also happy with the season my team has had . Considering , 2011 apart , we're usually down near the foot of the table , it was a pleasant change to be supporting a team challenging for honours . Thankfully I missed last night's second leg , Nick Morris' mum and dad and I were following things on the chatzone in a London pub and it was evident from early on that our 7 point lead was never going to be anywhere near adequate . But we've had a wonderful season and it's only the building blocks that were put in place this season . I wait with anticipation to see what events unfold over the winter , at my club and the sport as a whole . But for the moment we must pay tribute to the worthy champions of our league , congratulations Edinburgh
  20. When i first went i had rickets and only ate Hovis bread , you could get 6 pints , 20 fags , a pint of milk and still have change from a pound
  21. Let's do what Somerset did in the KO Cup final . They had a similar first leg lead as we do and nobody thought it would be enough , but it was . Come on Glasgow , you can do this
  22. But Junior is unaware of that , like most of the Monarch's faithful Junior has decided James is somehow cheating everytime he goes to the tapes . Thankfully James seems a strong character and this sort of hysterical reaction to him wont bother him one iota . Referees are a different problem however and it seems everytime James makes a decent start , legitamate or not , refs panic and pull the race back . Heat 11 last night being a wonderful exception
