David is probably one of the most likeable guys in speedway. He has been riding since 1986 making his Division 3 debut four days short of his 16th birthday.A well known face at Glasgow who did a decent job for the Tigers last season at reserve, David was a victim of the points limits and his outspoken nature after stating at the end of last season that he felt it would be beneficial for him to have a year away from Glasgow to try and improve his away form.
Partly due to his average, no club came in for him and David ended up riding Conference League at Boston this season.
With the crises for Glasgow at number two following the retiral of Graham Jones, the Glasgow promotion moved to secure the return of David , in all honesty after other avenues had been exhausted.
Although probably more of a high reserve standard, Glasgow at least know that with David they have a rider who will give his all in every meeting and has an excellent attitude in the pits.
