Jordan (Jenkins) told me he would fix his problems and he did and he rode very well. Cam (Heeps) and Henry also chipped in, and Luke (Killeen) was very impressive from reserve.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Glasgow boss Cami Brown said: <em>\u201cI wasn\u2019t happy with what we threw away. I had words with some of the riders, some daft riding and some mistakes which shouldn\u2019t happen. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWe were on a 5-1 and ended up a 4-2 against us, and then a comfortable 4-2 that became a 3-3.
