Stancl Makes Three
Posted 22/11/06

Glasgow have surprised many by today naming asset George Stancl as their third signing for 2007.

George is obviously well known to the Tigers faithful and popular on the terraces. He declined terms with Glasgow last season electing instead to move to his 'local' club Newcastle.

It wasn't the best of seasons for George at Brough Park with his average dropping by over half a point but he seemed to find form towards the end of season and his lower average no doubt made him an attractive prospect.

According to the Official Website, a deal was quickly sorted out between George and Glasgow after he made contact to advise he was willing to return 'home' to Ashfield and obviously with the deal being sorted so early it gives him plenty of time to prepare for the new season.

Obviously George's signing means that Glasgow will now loose at least one out of Parker and Nieminen with Bird already almost certainly gone.

With three riders signed, the Official Site has indicated there is 23.64 left for the remainder of the team although there is a suggestion there may still be a further 10% to come off David McAllan's quoted average of 3.95.
