Paul 67 Posted September 9, 2016 There was still a point to play for. Why just give up? There was still a point to play for. Why just give up? Agree Shads. A team effort and Branford is probably the one shinning light in another dismal year. The management need to learn and fast otherwise the good Rye House factor will soon disappear. In all honesty I've not been sucked in like many others. Let's hope they rejig for next season and pray the EL rumours don't happen. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert 303 Posted September 9, 2016 Great win for Scunny. Thoroughly enjoyable meeting, some fantastic racing, as is the norm round the EWR. It takes two teams to produce a good meeting, so credit to Rye House who battled well but just fell short in the last few heats. Fantastic meeting for birthday boy Ryan Douglas...a classy five ride paid max. Palm Toft an Lewi Kerr also rode particularly well with seven race wins between them. Special mention for Fritz Wallner, rode his rocks off for very little reward. If ever a riders points tally didn't match their effort and commitment, then this was it. For Rye House.. Eddie Kennett had something of an off night. He's had indifferent meetings round Scunny... occasionally brilliant but often poor, safe to say it perhaps not his favourite track. It left the rest of the Rockets chasing race wins, which sadly for them didn't happen... but not for the want of trying. There's a feelgood factor around the EWR again, its just such a shame that our home season has come to an early end! Roll on 2017. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Out of sight from the main road, just hope the Council don't view them as out of sight, out of mind. Thinking about it....There's a banger meeting tomorrow...I'm sure the banger racing fraternity with all their vehicles and lifting gear can pay them a visit, introduce themselves nicely 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lucifer sam 3,953 Posted September 10, 2016 Another enjoyable evening. Track was definitely a bit drier than normal due to the wind, but still produced some great racing, especially towards the end of the meeting. Good to see the Birthday Boy Ryan score a paid max, and MPT and Lewis Kerr were simply quality once more. And Josh rode his socks off for 6+3, I think he had to score every point from the back. The end-of-season interviews were interesting, and nice firework display. All the best Rob 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rayleigh 362 Posted September 10, 2016 Another iffy score for Edward for Rye House (although the wins keep coming in the Elite league), If he keeps this up for the next couple of meetings his average will drop quite a lot, although,as only in speedway the worst you do the more employable you become for next season. wink wink.

Shadders 4,118 Posted September 10, 2016 Edward twisted his knee in heat 1, which explains his low score (Hertfordshire Mercury) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lucifer sam 3,953 Posted September 10, 2016 It would appear that Fritz Wallner hasn't had enough of racing around the EWR in 2016... today he's racing a stock car!! All the best Rob 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

romans lovechild 143 Posted September 11, 2016 good to hear the rider interviews afterwards, some interesting comments made, and josh really spoke from the heart, not the usual scunny racing due to the slickness of the track, but a good close meeting up to the last 3 heats, completed in quick time as usual, well done to all at scunny for finishing on a high at the ewr, looking forward to a close meeting next wednesday on a track your boys go well on. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
