  1. It seems to me, that Luke Harrison is the most motivated, so maybe he should instil some of his thinking into the others.
  2. A season too far for Lambert. Jake's speedway career has stalled. Worrall a big risk after injury and needs to up a gear. Mountain just about doing enough, but needs to kick on. The reserves are doing well and we have to remember how young Luke is and a huge leap from number 7 rookie to number 2 berth. It will be a short season for us, as we will continue to be not good enough away from home.
  3. Don't know if there are any motorway closures planned, but the A18 runs parallel to the motorway and will bring you out at the end of the M181 roundabout at Tesco Extra.
  4. With teams falling out of the league and other teams moving up , my "local" derby is now Redcar 115 miles away. I think Plymouth/ Poole derby a few miles longer. Going to away matches, especially evening ones ,is now expensive with fuel, stay overs and time consuming. Streaming meetings is obviously a much cheaper option and takes out the wasted bad weather meeting cancellations, having disappointedly travelled many miles up and down the road network.
  5. Been complaining about this for several seasons. Mic needs a sports shield around it to cut out the wind roar. No coordination between the announcer and the "DJ" in the box, or the in field announcer. For the box announcer telling Dan to go into the pits to get him some info was comical, since the poor guy was on crutches!
  6. 200 miles and another 3 and a half hours drive probably not worth his while.
  7. Its going to be a short season. We should have had more of a clear out , but Rob is to loyal to his rider friends. We lack at least one more heat leader, probably two.
  8. Bring your coats, its sunny, cloudless, but a biting easterly wind!
  9. Nothing on the website to confirm this. We had more information when you were more active Dan, time for a comeback mate!
  10. Yes you can pay by card. M181 will be open but down to one lane whilst another roundabout is built, traffic runs freely through 50mph stretch with average speed cameras operating.
  11. If the M181 is still closed the A18 runs parallel to the M180 and will bring you out at the end of the M181 i.e. Next to Tesco Extra. Alternative is to go past M181 junction and follow Scunthorpe East , but this is a longer route.
  12. Would have had a larger audience if it was on the club website, not everyone is on Farcebook. Have we not got a Press Officer?
  13. What time is Press and practice, nothing on Socials, or website???
  14. There is usually a massive gap, with riders twiddling their thumbs mid season and the weather is more likely to be favourable too.
  15. It seems nobody wants to put their head above the parapet and take on the chairman's job, including your Promotor. I think you will find current chairman runs a speedway club that does not go beyond its financial commitments. He also runs a thriving garage business. Lastly the back end of Lincolnshire must be over the border, since the EWR is in a completely different county of North Lincolnshire.
  16. Luke has done exceptionally well in his first Championship season. I just hope he is not pushed too hard, (same as Hagon) Number 2 is a massive move up from reserve and not an easy position to ride at all. Good luck to him, steady progress is quite acceptable at this early stage of his career.
  17. The infield announcer has been Kevin Moore for nearly all of the season instead of Rob. Kevin is very knowledgeable , leaving Rob to concentrate more on track grading, watering etc.
  18. MPT has reportedly said on podcast at the weekend, he is not in Scorpion team for 2025.
  19. I was under the impression the residents around Glasgow speedway are against more track time for riders, due to noise and dust problems?
  20. Pirates with 4 big hitters, think we might struggle with R/R. Our reserves should be stronger , but Ablitt against the Pirates often has a shocker.
  21. My Fantasy teams got slaughtered by rain offs and injuries. My worst season ever.๐Ÿ˜
  22. Luke Harrison signed a 3 year contract with the Scorpions last year, according to Mr Godfrey, when he introduced him to the team.
