Ah didn’t realise that still two options!

So are Scunthorpe lining up at move to take advantage of the new 8 percent reduction rule. A few examples of new averages are down below! Tero Arnio 5.88 Thomas Jorgensen 5.40 Josh Auty 5.45 Jason Garrity 4.92. Then with British reduction would be 4.80 as quoted in speedway star!

Think he lives down south and is always poor at the EWR

Don’t think he would fit. He ended 2024 on 5.04 so would be 4.91 with British reduction. Also just realised Lambert is 4.49 so means we would have 4.84 to play with

So it looks as though it might be 1) Josh Pickering 11.64 2) ? 3) Luke Harrison 4.97 4) Connor Mountain 5.96 5) Michael Palm Toft 6.10 6) Simon Lambert 4.49 7) Ryan Ingram 2.00 leaves 4.84 points for number to two if my calculations are correct maybe Declan Kennedy? Maybe someone else?

I assume you are referring to Worrall? There was rumours about this but I hadn’t seen anything official? Be a shame if he has retired

So then the Scorpions have 15.43 points left to use on the final three riders. I’ve put together a few possible options below. I think the top option is probably the best however leaves us weak at reserve Anti Vuolas 6.87 or Steve Worrall 6.82 Michael Palm Toft 6.10 Any 2 point reserve or Max Perry Michael Palm Toft 6.10 Declan Kennedy 4.63 Simon Lambert 4.43 Michael Palm Toft 6.10 Zaine Kennedy 5.24 Paul Starke 4.03 or an assessed 4 pointer Anti Vuolas 6.87 Simon Lambert 4.43 Paul Starke 4.03 or an assessed 4 pointer

Delighted to have Luke Harrison back!

Might have to pick up speedway star this week to see what has been put! It’s tricky to tell whether that’s been put on the front as a bit of a headline but he’s on about speedway elsewhere

Saw the headline has anyone read the full article?

Tricky to tell really, there’s every chance they could be in the final four riders although they might not be

Seems as though there will be another signing announcement or announcements on Christmas Eve according to the clubs social media

Cluff on a 3 point average is a good little signing to be fair. When you look at his form at reserve for Plymouth he averaged 4.27

Yeah I also think he will be returning to the EWR in 2026. On a 6.10 average he’s got room for improvement and did demonstrate he hasn’t forgot how to ride the EWR when he visited with Edinburgh last year!

That’s what my thinking is

This is the team that I’ve drafted out based on signings and who I think will sign Josh Pickering 11.64 Declan Kennedy 4.63 Michael Palm Toft 6.10 Connor Mountain 5.96 Steve Worrall 6.82 // Anti Vuolas 6.87 Ryan Ingram 2.00 Jack Smith 2.61 = 39.76 // 39.81

I thought Harrison and Lambert were off elsewhere, guess we will have to wait and see!

Yeah agreed he would benefit from a place in the prem. He always gives a 100 percent and is a good honest rider, it will be interesting to see if he can put any points on his starting average of 6.11 which is 5.96 after the British reduction

Connor Mountain confirmed as the third signing

I’d say most championship teams will need significant changes if it’s on big league not just scunny!

Suspect Zach cook will be back at Poole. Perhaps drew kemp might be on the move however

Have a feeling he might end up at Workington? Hope he’s a scorpion next year though

As a Scunthorpe fan I totally understand his situation, and can’t blame him really, he’s Sheffield club captain at the end of the day and has rode for the club for a few years now

Sounds like Simon Lambert won’t be heading back to scunny for 2026 as he’s just put on his Facebook he’s looking forward to a new challenge in 2026

Happy with this signing, seems to have progressed nicely throughout the season.
