It has been confirmed that Robert Ksiezak has joined the Tigers as 'B' Grade reserve alongside James Cockle for the start of the season-at least.

The Press Release on the Official Glasgow site indicates that it would be up to Robert himself to keep the position for the foreseeable future. This comment comes on the back of the revelation in this weeks Speedway Star that the promotion found out about Adam not being aware of Adam not being ready for the start of the season when they read it on his website.

Of course the foreseeable future could also just mean until Adam is fully fit and it does give Robert the chance to put himself in the shop window meantime. Adam will also not be under pressure to return too quickly.

Robert looked as if he was going to be frozen out of the start of the 2006 season after Edinburgh elected to go for an A and a C grade in their reserve berths. He missed a large chunk of last season due to injury but was a familiar face around the pits at Ashfield on his crutches.

Welcome to Glasgow Robert.
