Should be a Scunny win. Somewhere between 10-20 points i would think.

Good luck to the Hornets though.

For me this is what the NL is all about........Last year Scunny stuck with our youngsters when some teams strengthened.Most of these lads have improved and held their own in the prem leauge so its a thrill and pleasure to watch these kids go for it. I know their sights are on winning the league, So come on Saints do the job. Good luck and stay safe.

Well done Scunthorpe.

 

Great performances from Irving & Birks.:approve: Irving particularly has made great progress imo dominant at home,better away & put some good scores in at PL level, well done.

Wrathall, Nielsen & Worral provided good support tonight as well by the looks of it.

 

Hornets did as I expected, happy enough with the performance.

Well done to both teams for a good meeting. Some excellent races. A quick shower just before the meeting possibly made the track a little greasey as in the first few races our riders were being caught out and falling, either that or they were just trying too hard. However things evened out and the track then produced some brilliant racing. Hats off to Gary, he was amazing, some of those passes looked fantastic! It was however a good win and congratulations to all our team. 3pts is what we wanted and its what we got. BRILLIANT!

Irving and Birks very impressive for the Saints.

On the other end of the scale, where on earth did they find that announcer? He was certainly...interesting.
