Glasgow Tigers v Berwick Bandits

Report

GLASGOW were 47-43 winners over Berwick in the Cab Direct Championship with a late rally from the Bandits leaving them in a stronger position ahead of tonight’s (Saturday) return fixture.

The Tigers were coasting after Heat 10 with a 14-point advantage, but new signing Jonas Jeppesen and skipper Drew Kemp inspired the visitors’ response as they recorded a string of race advantages.

Chris Harris led the Glasgow scoring with 11+2 and recent signing Villads Nagel impressed on 10+1, whilst Jeppesen (13+2) and Kemp (12) were in the major points for the Bandits.

Glasgow boss Cami Brown said: “I have to say I’m disappointed with the final outcome, winning by just four.

“We were in control of the meeting but threw away a lot of points, especially in the final two heats.

“That’s made the task much harder at Berwick. We are relying on guests which is never a good thing. But our top two Chris (Harris) and Kyle (Howarth) can take extra rides so we hope we can still get the job done.”
