2004 Glasgow Scoring Record
2005 Glasgow Scoring Record


Paul is a fully qualified sports coach and as well as speedway also excellent in swimming in the mid-80's.

Throughout his speedway career he has managed to stay mostly with northern clubs, starting out at Newcastle in 87 before moving to Middlesborough for the next four years. Between 92 and 96 he rode in the top league with Coventry and Bradford before returning North having another spell with Middlesborough as well as Hull Glasgow and Berwick.

Paul has gone on record as saying he feels it important to bring more entertainment into speedway and the volatile Geordie certainly does his best to do that! He can sometimes be a bit too hot-headed but when focused is an asset to any team and younger riders can learn a lot from him when it comes to preparation and maintenance of machinery.

A welcome addition to the Glasgow team in 2004, he easily won the away rider of the year award and was a popular choice to return to the Stripes in 2005.
