GlasgowTigers’ boss Cami Brown has urged his side to keep pushing in the race for the play-offs when they face Plymouth Gladiators in the Cab Direct Championship at Ashfield on Friday (tapes-up 7.30pm).
The Allied Vehicles Tigers boosted their chances of retaining their league title after a double victory over Berwick Jewson Bandits last weekend, but now team manager Brown is eager for them to stay focused and beat Plymouth.
He said: “The bottom line is that we need that sort of performance in every meeting now. We need the boys to be more consistent. If they can achieve that, we will get stronger results. We’ve still got a lot to improve on if we are going to reach the play-offs and defend the league title.
“Perhaps the most amazing element about this club is the entertainment every week. Yes, okay, it’s a bit more nail-biting than we’d like at times, but this is speedway at its very best. We have a track that delivers as good as anywhere in the world.
“That’s a great compliment to our hard-working staff who sweat blood on that circuit. Fans who have been coming to Ashfield for years are telling me this is the best the racing has ever been.”
Plymouth have drafted in flying Aussie Tate Zitschke to guest for injured No 1 Nico Covatti.
Brown added: “Plymouth are not to be underestimated. They surprised so many this season already and we know in Ben Barker they have a real battler. It’s going to be a tough night.”
