To be fair they looked super weak on paper but have surprised a few including me but you can't see anything other than a Poole steamroller in the play offs.

Well Jacob Hook it is. As people have said it won’t be easy for him to jump straight In having not really ridden much this season however there’s no doubting he is a talented lad. Scunthorpe aren’t been blessed with options, the only other rider I could think of was Fredriksen who was one short of the Olympic rings at the EWR earlier this year. As for those saying why didn’t they change earlier I think the Scunthorpe promotion were looking at changes however since the recent strong run in form you aren’t gonna make any changes, they would be silly to change a winning formula!

I was replying to SteveLyric who thought it was the next day, but now you're reminding me of what happened, did he not complete a Prem match, apparently picking up an injury in the process, missed Poole due to not riding in Denmark (because he was injured), then returned to Ipswich the next night? Was the Ipswich meeting he missed not a day after riding in Denmark? I think whenever a rider misses a meeting one day, but rides the next people get suspicious.

Exactly, I agree with you mostly, that's why I said I don't understand them bringing him in so late if they've been talking to him for 3+ months. If they'd made the signing earlier he could have had plenty of time time settle in rather than being thrown in so late on. I'm a neutral as far as the Championship is concerned anyway so makes no difference to me personally, but I hope he goes well, it was a a surprise that he wasn't back at Workington this year. I thought him and Vuolas both missing out on team places was a real shame.

If Hook struggles, it will lower his average, which could help his bargaining, by saying "I'm better than that, but was racing against riders already dialled in". Strange situation signing a 5.5 rider as a "3rd heat leader". If Scunny have been talking to Hook since April, means they could have replaced MPT when he lost form, but chose not to. However he goes, I will applaud Scunthorpe for not going down the guest route.

Not sure , will be better for fans I would have thought travelling from Berwick . -
Bartosz at 3/1 (1/4 odds e/w) on Saturday looks generous to me, especially for a rider who has only missed 1 podium this season (when he crashed).
-
He'll still outscore Palm Toft
-
May be a promising rider and nice lad but this late in the season can really affect a rider more then gain. You’ve gotta be slightly realistic, he’s coming in to an almost completed season. Everyone’s had a lot of meetings/laps/starts compared to his one meeting. Will either knock his confidence and possibly look worse for a team spot next season or he’ll go fine and will work out for next season. Goodluck
-
I don't necessarily think its crazy to bring him in, Jacob is a promising rider and a nice lad to boot, but why not earlier in the season if they have been talking to him "since April"? And I think its crazier still that they didn't bring in Vuolas if they're clearly willing to bring in riders from further afield.

What is it costing ??
