spin king 1,923 Posted March 23, 2015 Not sure if I would say emphatic win, but after watching 3 of our riders taking part in the Ricky Ashworth meeting yesterday I am feeling more and more confident. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lucifer sam 3,953 Posted March 23, 2015 First fixture of the new season. Anyone expect anything other than an emphatic home win? Early season - so anything can happen. It would be great if the Scorpions can make it win No 6 on the trot at Owlerton. All the best Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fozzie4388 679 Posted March 23, 2015 Apart from Stead who'll get 15 point max, Scunny have nothing to be afraid of, Should be close. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EC Rides Again 143 Posted March 23, 2015 Not sure if I would say emphatic win, but after watching 3 of our riders taking part in the Ricky Ashworth meeting yesterday I am feeling more and more confident. I would agree with you SK. Stead, Bellego and Bates were all hugely impressive yesterday. Auty and Howe...... not so much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IronScorpion 1,407 Posted March 23, 2015 Not sure if I would say emphatic win, but after watching 3 of our riders taking part in the Ricky Ashworth meeting yesterday I am feeling more and more confident. I would, also, seem to agree though 3 riders do not make a team. A lack of practice will catch us out early doors as Sheffield have, as far as I know or been told, had closed door practices at the EWR & Owlerton & P&P. I have only seen Carl & Nike at open practice, David & Theo at our unofficial P&P, Alex & Ellis only just landing in our shores & Josh getting over his finger injury. That saying it seems Josh & Ellis had good 1st meetings for their other clubs last week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cue Ball 416 Posted March 23, 2015 Scunny's wins at Owlerton were mainly due to a combination of Jorgensen and Douglas, neither of whom are currently in the side. Home and potentially away wins for the Sheffield folk. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
graz gp 184 Posted March 24, 2015 It's Thursday and a new speedway season so keep an eye on the weather. If the weather is ok i think it will be a easy win for the Tiger's. Especially if Auty is still looking for his contact lens lol. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thebaron 434 Posted March 24, 2015 All I'm saying is if I were Tigger's I would not take too much for granted on Thursday. Stead was in real form on Sunday; but if the Scorps get about the rest of the Tigers line up; there's points to be had. It is bit unpredictable with Lunna and Perks making their team debuts. I think Alex Davies could be a surprise, and Josh knows the way around Owlerton. If Howie; Wilko and Pjiper chip in; then I am optimistic for a good start I really am. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJK86 180 Posted March 24, 2015 I am confident we will take maximum points but every meeting against Scunthorpe are tough, We do have a team of Owlerton specialists so we could take some stopping ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Especially if Auty is still looking for his contact lens lol. If the Scorpions are doing well, I suggest someone give Josh a big congratulatory slap on the back - he might lose them again 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
