There will be less discussion in the return leg as there wont be any video evidence to look at.

There is a noticeable drop in crowd levels whenever BSN are in town no matter how far travelled the opposition are. Might just be us Glaswegians are tighter than anyone else or we just have more competition in the offered sports in the area I don't know but I can see why they decided to drop their streaming. The promotion is trying to get a lot of new fans interested in speedway and in my opinion, a big crowd is just as important in retaining them as good racing is. Half of sport is the atmosphere and if a new fan showed up to an empty back straight would they really stick around long?

Didn't Glasgow ask for volunteers to run streams a year or so ago but none were forthcoming so the idea got dropped so they weren't against it at all.

They aren't against it, but it needs to be volunteers, and a team. It can't just be reliant on one or two people because then it falls apart if they aren't around.

It does get talked about from time to time, but I don't think they are going to pay anyone to do it - and they do place a high value on feet through the doors. They want the stadium to look full and have a great atmosphere.

Hearing that Alan Dick has vowed to never return to Poole and that a line was crossed.

Now if someone as easy going as Alan Dick has decided this course of action I would say there is more to this that we are hearing..

Will we return the favour next week I very much doubt it we are far more professional to stoop to Poole levels.

Maybe Matt should buy a London bus to help tyre packing the track and smooth out some of the bumps? I seem to recall that Stewart Dickson used to use one of his at Glasgow….but that was a long while ago. 

Boys do what suits us, not the opposition. Im sure every track does the same. Its called having home advantage.

This is in reference to the swearing I'm assuming?

Disappointing if true but there was a lot of banter between Cami and the set of supporters, things did get a bit heated and security were called.
