Skodaman 192 Posted May 28, 2022 11 hours ago, Teromaafan said: Ah, the Leicester track…crap… no passing…quality of racing etc, seem to recall this may have come up before. The best riders have never made an excuse for the BP track (which does seem to be getting better), attack it and find racing lines to pass. That goes for home and away riders. On the subject of the Scunny stream presenters, I watched the Lions league match recently (didn’t bother with tonight) and found them to be quite embarrassing. I accept that they may be doing it for free, fair play on that front, but they really need to up their game before they could be considered anything near amateurs. Most important thing about tonight of course is young Joe’s injury. Fingers crossed for him. The last time Lions were at EWR, the "commentators" claimed Dan Thompson was reknowned for knocking other riders off!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What worries me is everyone is saying the support is poor. They simply can't survive with low ticket sales Yes they can. Rob has previously admitted, without the Stock Car meetings, he couldn't run speedway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats because Dan usually beats their golden boy & the saviour of British Speedway Jordan Palin.

Tosh1218 591 Posted May 29, 2022 It’s all to easy to slate any promoters,but what we need to do is a way forward . Riders are in short supply as are paramedics ,my question is do any sides have Paramedics within there support inside the stadium who could gain free entry to meetings and be used as a replacement paramedic in instances like Friday night or do they have to be registered to become a replacement paramedic ?? As I can see the situation happening again this season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I can see the situation happening again this season Not only do you need a paramedic, you need an ‘ equipped’ paramedic with appropriate medically equipped transport, so one ‘ from the crowd ‘ is hardly going to be suitable.

ScunnyDan 335 Posted May 30, 2022 First and foremost, we wish Joe Alcock and Ryan Douglas the best of recoveries from their injuries gained on Friday Evening. It is with disappointment that some of you weren’t satisfied with some aspects of our livestream, and I can understand why. Our commentary team, first and foremost, are very new at the job and will take some time to get used to their job and being impartial as they are both life long Scunthorpe supporters. The commentary team of Dan and Spence would both like to apologise on here for any comments made that offended anyone, and will issue another public apology on the stream on Friday. With them being relatively new at this job – they would both be very grateful for any help in making them better. The crew would like to apologise for the dissatisfaction to any fans offended by comments made and hope that if you choose to tune into Scorpions TV again in the near future, that your viewing experience be more pleasurable.

Dan, Scorpions TV They don't have to be impartial, no one is on their own clubs stream! But reading the comments on here, maybe not be negative about the opposition! I will buy the stream when Poole are there, just dreading what they are going to say about us! lol. I will give them a fair chance before I mute it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IronScorpion 1,407 Posted May 31, 2022 Before streaming, if you could not get to a meeting you used live radio, if available, or updates which can be biased. We have got to be thank full to all that help us out. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dan, Scorpions TV I paid for the live stream last Friday. Is there any chance of a refund? If this is not possible and assuming I am allowed to watch a future stream for free, can I pick the meeting or does it have to be the replay? My preference would be a refund and second choice would be a meeting of my choosing. Many thanks in advance. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dan, Scorpions TV Quite honestly if you need to be told/ pointed out, about not making mindless comments. Then perhaps it is not really the job for you. How about this for an idea. Why not just think before you open your mouth. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
