As others have said Phillips is a much better bet. We want to see 7 potential race winners in the team ,not 6and a rookie.Sod's Law will say someone will get injured and then a non performing rookie is a liability.

That's what I like about this forum, you ask a civil question and you get hostile responses from individuals who have no intention of going to the function. Personally I eat meat, but two others interested in going are vegetarians.

Conversely, tickets could be admission only and pie and peas preordered as per previous evening. Why should vegetarians pay extra for unwanted items?

Paul, is there a vegetarian pie option available for non meat eaters?

Wow looking really good so far.

Montie, who are the 3 signings please- nothing on our website???

Change league names back to Elite and Premier- seeing as that's how most supporters and presenters still talk of them both.

Toft being demoted from Captain in recent weeks says it all- he is already decided as a definite no for next year.

Are you for real comparing a Redcar and Scunthorpe crowd to a big city like Glasgow crowd base. I would have thought with the population within a 20mile radius of Glasgow, plus travelling fans, the crowd would be at least 20 times as big!

Two miles from the track and currently dry with sunny clouds, although much cloudier in last half hour and grey clouds in the distance. Time will tell which forecast will be correct.

Jake, Josh A and Ryan played their part, were the rest of them trying to lower their averages for future employment elsewhere? With Duffy on the infield microphone, it was clear to all Rob was not a happy camper with the team effort either! A meeting thrown away again, at least 4 new faces next year I predict and Friday night racing please.

After Kings Lynn fiasco have we got a number 8???

So Josh Auty has to take 12 rides during the evening! Well thats him and his equipment well cream crackered for his own clubs meeting tomorrow at Sheffield- Thanks Babs what a crap ref she is. 2nd event should never have run.

Hiding under his keyboard no doubt!

Excellent result, who would have bet on a 5-1 win for heat 15 on our away form?.

Weather is currently sunny clouds with a good breeze. 20% chance of precipitation during the day so looking good.

Well get away from your keyboard Fozzie and we will bow to your presence at the EWR, knowing you are such a Scorpion fan.

Rob Godfrey runs Stockcars to make money to keep his beloved Speedway running. Speedway will survive at the EWR no doubt about it, as Rob is so passionate about this sport. He is not under the influence of landlords and can run events when he wants. We are not having the best season but the racing is still superb on an excellent track. I for one prefer a settled night track to a 5.30 afternoon meeting with the varying track conditions.

Did not say he was just a gater. After watching both brothers over several seasons around the EWR going from wobblers to good riders, in my opinion Steve is a better gater, but Richie is the more entertaining racer.

Well we won the toss and that was about all. A pretty dire performance on the road again.

Always like watching Kyle myself, fast, stylish and fair rider. The guests make Diamonds stronger around the EWR, with Richie the overtaking Worrall, rather than his gating brother. It should be a close contest with probably the reserves making the biggest diference.

Home advantage? Then the Scunny pair will walk this.

Some really poor refereeing today- probably worst I have seen in 40 years watching the sport. Totally ruined the match and did not even bother to watch heat 15, that is how disillusioned with the whole debacle I was.

Decent meeting? Most heats over by 2nd bend, I thought racing was poor and so did the Sheffield fans stood next to me.

Tap into potentially 50000 plus students and Sheffield Speedway could make loads of money, just on bars and food. With a new intake every year a potential goldmine with a few flyers spread around campus. If Scorpions can manage to give Student concessions why can't others? It only needs Student union card id , much the same as the OAP scheme concession.
