STARs Speedway Night
29/10/05

The new Tigers Support Group, STARS, held their first event last night with the speedway race night which seemed to go down well with those in attendance.

A reasonable turnout enjoyed the 10 heats of racing and the opportunity to see some speedway from years gone by as well as more recent racing.

There were the usual raffles and of course Alan Dick was in attendance to bring people up to date on the current situation with the Tigers - a separate note of what was said will be posted shortly. It was also good to see James Cockle coming along and enjoying himself ahead of his busy weekend.

First Bend Action Videos were represented and it was confirmed that so far this season they had contributed the sum of £700 to the Glasgow promotion from sales of videos and DVD's, something that should be remembered when looking for those Christmas presents!

Overall despite some early gremlins a good night was had by all and those behind it should take a bow for their initiative and hard work in staging an ambitious first event.

Next event will be a Quiz night and is expected to take place around the end of November. Alan and Stewart have already indicated that they will try and be in attendance once more to pass on any information to the fans.
