With Shane having his testimonials both in Australia and the UK in 2005 some worried that he may decide not to return to Glasgow in 2006. This worry was compounded when the new rules made his position look in danger.

However, the worries were unfounded when Shane was the third rider announced for 2006.

Outgoing Shane is well known and well liked as one of the few real entertainers in speedway. A true showman and always one to acknowledge the fans. He has very much led by example in his time at Glasgow. His form at Ashfield has been superb and although one or two of the away tracks still prove more tricky his scoring is still vital.

Shane is an all round sportsman and was the first rider to take advantage of the appalling 'doubling-down' ruling when it was brought in.

Never one to avoid controversy or injustice, Shane is president of the speedway riders association and has gone on record as stating that speedway will never improve whilst the BSPA runs it.

The popular Aussie has ridden for his country many times and has a list of Australian titles too long to mention.

In addition to Glasgow, Shane has elected to return to riding in Sweden again in 2006 and will captain Kaparna Goeteborg in the Allsvenskan.

Things will never be boring or mundane whilst Shane is around and Glasgow fans can look forward to some more good entertainment from him in 2006.
