Bagpuss 10,780 Posted November 23, 2017 Finished above the money men once again, yes very bitter. Calling them the money men confirms your bitterness. Therefore resenting the work of the people who are doing the sport good with the way they have taken their club by the scruff of the neck and are promoting it properly. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gazc 7,093 Posted November 23, 2017 As you are fully aware we dont race in Edinburgh, so your point is pointless Same as your money men point was completely pointless and bitter. You should practice what you preach regards pointless posts. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

comet49 314 Posted November 24, 2017 Just looked at the AGM statement again which states "All promoters left the meeting with great enthusiasm towards the 2018 season" not all promoters who attended. I said at the time that I was surprised we got good news so quickly. I hope Laura and co are managing to put something together for an announcement soon, Scunthorpe already have their team sorted while we have been stuck at the gate.

We could do without meaningless fixtures at the end of the season too, as you say Laura deserves support.

phillwhitewasmad 1,487 Posted November 24, 2017 Scunny plead poverty one year and sign top paid riders the next mean while we still in the pits ! Personally I think Rob has listened to the fans proper number one good strong team and ditch the faith in loyalty ( which has its merits but in our case proved problematic) think it will be a make or break year for the Scorpions if the crowds don’t come back to support that team they never will.
