GLASGOW Tigers chiefs revealed their deep disappointment after Berwick ran out convincing 52-37 winners at Ashfield.

The Bandits were anything but robbers as they fully deserved to take home all four Premier League points in the rain yesterday.

But the home side were left reeling after Kevin Wolbert, signed in the winter as their No.1 rider, scored just two. His afternoon included a defeat by visiting reserve Liam Carr, who Wolbert couldn't overcome in heat six despite four laps on his tail.

Glasgow's cause was further impaired when Christian Henry withdrew from the meeting with a recurrence of a previous injury, having failed to complete four laps, which left the Tigers a rider short in two races.

One of the few positives was the return to track of French 18-year-old Dimitri Berge, whose four points was a good return after three months out. There were also strong showings from Anders Thomsen and Theo Pijper who both hit double figures.

However, that was no consolation to stand-in team managers Colin Hamilton and Alan Dick, who insist they will go back to the drawing board in a bid to salvage the Tigers' season.

Hamilton said: "As far as the result goes, I'm deeply disappointed, to say the least. I know that Alan is as well.

"We're going to have to re-look at the whole situation, because sometimes enough is enough."

Glasgow's Rusty Harrison was unlucky to post a score of just four. His total might have been higher had he not succumbed to a terrifying high-speed get-off in heat 13 while chasing visitors Claus Vissing and Kevin Doolan.

Having switched places several times with Vissing, Harrison appeared to have finally got the better of the Dane, only to pick up some unwanted drive and career into the safety fence on the fourth bend of the third lap. Thankfully, he walked away from the crash.

There looks to be much work ahead of Saturday night's return at Berwick.
