A SENSATIONAL last-bend swoop by Nick Morris saved Glasgow from a late bid by Ipswich to win at the Peugeot Ashfield Stadium.

Now,Tigers team manager Stewart Dickson has told the Australian ace that he needs more of those performances from his No.1.

The 21-year-old passed Danny King, then stalked Rohan Tungate to get by him on the final bend in an incredible heat 13 to halt a Witches 5-1 and almost certainly an away win.

Glasgow only won the match by two points, 47-45, having led by 11 points at one stage.

Dickson said: "We won, which is the most important thing, but to lose last week and then to scrape home today is a wee bit of a concern. It's not convincing.

"Nick didn't get going until his third ride, which I spoke to him about. He knows it's putting a bit of pressure on the team that he's not coming to the party early enough. That's a couple of times it's happened now."

However, the team boss described Morris's heat 13 as "sensational" and praised him and team-mate Richard Lawson for securing a 3-3 in heat 15 to ensure the victory.

Glasgow got three points from the win, while Ipswich took one due to the narrow margin of their defeat.

It moved the Tigers into third place in the Premier League ahead of away matches at Peterborough on Wednesday and Berwick on Saturday.

Tigers scorers: Richard Lawson 10+1, Aaron Summers 9+1, Dimitri Berge 8+2, Nick Morris 8+1, Victor Palovaara 7, David Howe 5+2, James Sarjeant R/R.
