After the way Mr.S. Worrall did the dirty on Scunthorpe ( agreed to ride then went to Workington and then they closed ) why would Rob risk signing someone who didnt keep to his word!!

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

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.

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 !

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.

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.

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.

Sorry for the change of subject, but does anyone know when the Julie Lewis Memorial meeting is? I have had a look on the Redcar ficture list
But it isnt listed. I went last year and was looking forward to go this year but cant find a date.

24 minutes ago, Skidder1 said: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
-
There is nothing wrong with the riders at Pool, its the past management that over the years have " pushed the rule book beyond the sprite of the sport" that the supporters dont like.

5 hours ago, Ryan555 said: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

Yes thats what I make it or 1 each at Redcar and Leicester

How about a rule change for 2023. To be considered to be selected you must ride for a British Club.
Controversial yes but it will give the riders who race in the U.K regular more of a chance to be considered then the riders
who to choose to ride only on the continent and claim not to be asked to ride.

11 hours ago, Ryan555 said:Yeah that’s exactly my opinion on the matter there is 0 riders to replace him so wouldn’t be a great idea to let him go
There are at least a couple of Premiership riders that would fit in that are not riding in the Championship But im not naming names.

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.
