  1. vis issues?, i believe he failed to qualify for one in 2015 so classed as a new starte?
  2. because we all thought he was a 5 until it was anounced
  3. i wonder, but if you think scunny will be stronger ill take that,
  4. if he started this season as a new rider then he cant drop, he started last year as did lyager, if he comes back then he will get a true average, as stated the rule was changed at the start of the season. the teams who have an assessed rider who came in new this season will benefit next season if the riders sign again for the club
  5. nothing stopping you sign stokes is there? because he wasnt in workingtons 1 to 7 last year, holoub was, and so was lyager,, if karger and etheridge sign for the same team next year then they will get a true average.. holoub was classed as 7 for team building puroses, lyager would come in again on a 7 then drop when he has done the required meetings.
  6. Holoub is not a new rider to the priemier league...A rule has been brought in this season, whereby foreign riders new to British Speedway starting on an assessed average of 8.00, 7.00 or 5.00 cannot drop below 5.00. However, Holub is not a new rider this season, having signed for the Scorpions in August 2015 and been continuously in Scunthorpe’s declared 1-7 since then.(quoted from glasgow v scunny preview)... same will apply to Lyager i presume
  7. As long as ithe teams dont ride on the same night
  8. Porsing does poland on sundays i think, tofty im sure would be welcomed back,
  9. We have a 21 heat second half on monday.. yea lets put the meeting back till say 6pm, what time do you expect the meeting to finish or are people not bothered? people already moaning about 6.30 starts as they cant get the kids ready for school the next day
  10. Theres a thread on What speedway fans want, and some say the same thing... a well run meeting,no delays, good prepared track, good close racing, a second half with juniors but we give them that but still decide to stay away,i believe we were down to the die hard fans last night, but even some of those were missing, i dont just mean individuals as other commitments can take place but groups of say 4 or 5 were missing who were there at the start of the season.and people wonder why we never sign a Stead or Lambert or King or get Thomas back?,Even if 300 were in and everyone of them paid £15 thats £4500 before riders wages.if Josh was on say £80 a point he earned £1280 last night, Wilko scored 15, he probably got £700 so thats £2000 gone before you add on the other riders.then a £500 air fence panel needs replacing..i still believe the floating fans were watching on updates before deciding wether to come next week,,,As PhilWhiteWasMad said, once we start winning they will come. Are season tickets the answer? if dont turn up then your robbing your self and not hurting the team
  11. i didnt expect a t/r, so if charle g had 3 points i had the score right,,,,,disapointed with the crowd though, seemed very sparse, side efeect of the league cup efforts? were they sat at home waiting to see what happens before commiting to furthur meetings?even some from plymouth even bothered to come well done to both teams for an excellent meeting
  12. Im predicting Josh Baileys first win today,going to go for 50. 40 and depends on which Josh A and Carlos turns up,
  13. 25th is a monday, we dont run on a monday and the saturday and sunday is the pl 4s
  14. Certainly worked on Josh B in his last ride,just unlucky his bike kept cutting out because of that puddle, welcome back David
  15. Meetings normally start bang on 6.30, delay was due to paramedic caught in traffic, plus you will always get delays when a rider has 2 rides on the trot or when a rider falls on bend 1 and waits for his mechanic to come from bend 3 to push his bike off the track, or when the riders are at the tapes and one decides twice hes not ready just as the tapes go up,,, plus we did have afternoon matches until the clocks changed as its meant to be brighter and warmer
  16. Would the likes of karlsson, pedersen etc be doing polands on sundays?.... if Pk said he fancies giving the PL a shot then he has to ask PL wages ?
  17. See ya on sunday then, ill bring Darcy to show , think you maybe be impressed/inspired
  18. Come to Scunny then, well run and great racing, foods good,
  19. not comparing the 2, just saying theres different lines
  20. would have done if someone hadnt knocked zeberdee off.,plan a out of the window so on to plan b.......i say give ashley a chance, we had to get someone in for sunday which probably gave rob 3 or 4 days to organise someone, also hasnt ryan been riding the inside line at the ewr? done him no harm
  21. Because we dont like afternoon racing. our track is set up for evening. we always struggle at 3pms and bank holidays...
  22. Does Lyager fit now that Zeberdee hasnt done all his rides?
