IronScorpion 1,407 Posted August 2, 2018 Taken from your newsroom ; Visiting Scorpions near full strength NEWS Thursday 2nd August 2018, 9:00am by Mike Hunter This week's Armadale visitors are Scunthorpe whose powerful team has been disrupted by injury for much of the season, but they are virtually at full strength to face the Staggs Bar Monarchs on Friday. Heat leaders Stevie Worrall and Jason Garrity are in the side along with Josh Auty, Jake Allen and Gino Manzares leaving only long-term injury victim Stefan Nielsen on the sidelines, and he is pretty well covered by rider replacement. Most Scorpion fans know that our biggest loss has been Stefan Nielsen as the way he started the season, r/r & most guests have not covered his scoring potential. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,757 Posted August 2, 2018 He has just dropped a place in the averages too meaning he will be even less adequately covered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brylcream boy 141 Posted August 2, 2018 After tonight’s result, confidence must be sky high. Let’s hope the reserves can pitch in with 7/8 points between them, could make all the difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gr8scot 589 Posted August 3, 2018 Anything will be better than last week. Nice to see Scunny almost back to their own 7 riders and they will have their tails up after last night Can we avoid the sting and put the icing on Ed’s birthday cake..... yeah, I hope so!

Let’s hope the reserves can pitch in with 7/8 points between them, could make all the difference. The difference will be the contrast of Jake Allen from big tracks to tight tracks. Confidence should be high, though, so let us hope we can keep it tight. A point would be a good result for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Blobby 2,648 Posted August 3, 2018 This week will see what this new team is capable of against a good Scunthorpe side who will be flying high after last night. A home victory by 10. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Blobby 2,648 Posted August 3, 2018 Garrity apparently either broken down/crashed on route not here yet or not coming at all now. Shame if not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He has started crashing on the way to meetings now, I knew he was prone to the odd accident well several accidents but doing it on the way is taking it to a whole new level. 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crescent girl 1,904 Posted August 3, 2018 Garrity a no-show. No facility. Lewis Millar in at 3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IronScorpion 1,407 Posted August 3, 2018 I cannot believe it. with all the injury bad luck we have had all year, now we get travel disruptions with Allen last night(although he made it in time) now we have Garrity. Just when we see light at the end of the tunnel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
