2004 Glasgow Scoring Record
2006 Glasgow Scoring Record

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 at reserve in 2003, 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.

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.

As is his style, David gave his all in every meeting and has an excellent attitude in the pits. Unfortunately it was not to be enough to put him in the running for a team slot at Glasgow in 2005 and he ended up starting off the season riding Conference League for Sittingbourne where in a short time his nature earned him almost cult status amongst the fans.

Edinburgh called on David when Robert Ksiezak was injured, David riding one meeting short of attaining an average to give him a chance of Premier League speedway in 2006.

He was one of the first Tigers riders named for 2006 and got an extra boost when his new average without bonus points was confirmed at a low 3.70.
