Recommended Posts

Teams as per Official Edinburgh website:-

STAGGS BAR MONARCHS: Ricky Wells, Victor Palovaara, Josh Pickering, Richie Worrall, Erik Riss (captain), Max Clegg, Joel Andersson.

HENDERSON'S SCORPIONS: Steve Worrall (captain), rider replacement for Stefan Nielsen, Jason Garrity, Jake Allen, Josh Auty, Danny Phillips, Gino Manzares

This week Monarchs welcome the Management Committee's favourite team as the visitors:P

Joking apart, it's never dull when a pair of thrill makers in Garrity & Auty, appear here.

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.

He has just dropped a place in the averages too meaning he will be even less adequately covered.

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.

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!

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.

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.

Garrity apparently either broken down/crashed on route not here yet or not coming at all now. 

Shame if not.

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.

 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.
