    I totally agree with 2 premiership and one championship team reported not to be at tapes in 2024  it would be very foolish for any team to name riders before what is going to happen . I am sure that some promoters will have had talks with some riders with " if its this or that "will you join us.

    I expect it will be Edinburgh if all the roomers are correct.

    A lot of the team building will be academic until the league structure is announced, no?

    Never know a season of so much uncertainty ahead - will it be one league, two league, three leagues? A good Championship side might not be that great if it's just one big league for instance.

    I'm not expecting a lot from Kemp (at least the start with) he's not had much racing & going from a harder team position than he's used to (assuming he'll be at 3). However he'll certainly score more than Clegg, so Scunthorpe are stronger & will always have one strong reserve 

    So Rob didnt manage to influence H M P and get Jason G out on day release , still there is always next year !

    One of the most baffling team changes i have ever seen. 
     

    clegg about as useful as a one legged man in a rubbish kicking contest and ablitt worse. Shocking changed

    Tried H.M.P. to get Jason Garrity on day release but they wanted too many restrictions so it was Clegg and Ablitt we got.

  5. So, 3 points from 12 races by 3 of the Scunthorpe team,  11 points from 9 races by another 2 riders and 21 points from 10 races by the other 2 riders.

    Not a chance of even getting to the league play offs with this team.Rob wants to re place all of the 3 riders who under performed last night and think of 

    replacing the other 2 if he wants the team to do well this season IMO.

    I rest my case with the decisions made by the Scunthorpe Promotion & as I said before, 1 change was required but Rome wasn't built in a day.

    Glasgow next week not an easy test to resolve things but I am still gutted & disappointed.

     So Rome wasn`t  built in a day but it burnt down very quickly.

    What 'past management' exactly? Poole have had the same management for over 20 years!!

    Yes you are correct and they have "pushed" the rule book thats why supporters dont like Poole. ie sacking 2 riders to sign a higher points average  rider just before  the play offs

    It depends on points difference 

    Sorry but I disagree Leicester on 4 pts have to ride against Scunthorpe at home giving them a possible 7 points max.

    Scunthorpe have 2 meetings Redcar and Leister both away, and are on 6 points. A draw at Redcar will give them 8 points.Even if Scunthorpe 

    loose both meetings by 6 they get 2 points taking them to 8. before point difference comes in 


  9. Lets all hope that a replacement for Tero A is announced. I personally fell that this the second time he has let every one down at Scunthorpe and enough is enough.

      Yes  when he is on form it takes a good rider to pass him but when he does not turn up to race what good is he to the team??

     Sorry Tero but because of your team let downs its time to go.
