  1. your right in your assessment i have said all along year one is a fudge due to certain teams demanding they kept previous unused team where ever possible. year two will be the deciding factor . only time will tell
  2. maybe to keep a general interest going amongst supporters. but if it was me i would of kept it quiet because it just leads to the usual its wrong, id of done it different it wont work brigade whining about it
  3. leicester will smash scunny over two legs so if it was a fix think it would of been better to have an easier draw
  4. Not sure personally would of thought so as no spectators in that area so plenty of additional protection can be added to protect riders
  5. Bloody hell you only been in the league a week not turned a wheel yet and already upsetting everyone.
  6. A group seriously interested in reviving speedway have been in conversation with the stock car people. Sticking point is the landlords estimation of the value he requires per meeting.
  7. In fairness I've seen lots of riders make him look average but I do believe in the later part of 18 and all of 19 he was better than he's ever been around scunthorpe.
  8. http://speedwayupdates.proboards.com/board/820/scunthorpe-scorpions check this out only out scored 3 times at home by opponents top riders and two of them were when opposing rider took more rides
  9. I'm not Josh's biggest fan but he is seriously entertaining round the EWR . Please remember in modern speedway a high average just means you can gate really well plus it's none of your business who our last rider is so trot on back to the Plymouth thread
  10. Anyone thinking that young Hancock is ready for a championship place in the main body of the team needs to seriously wobble their head . He's miles off that level at the moment. In a team that's going to have a seriously long tail Plymouth will need someone with more experience even if there average is low .
  11. I much preferred you when you frequented the NL threads
  12. In fairness riders do have until the 15th respond to whether they want to be included so no need to panic just yet it's only the 11th
  13. I know the rain man well and he would have taken my post in the context it was meant
  14. Thought this was a reasonable post till you mentioned Gavin Parr
  15. I don't know the answer to that but nothing has been announced either way
  16. As a matter of interest who out of all the amateur riders is the lowest level you would go to. For me the likes of dean Douglas and Danny smith would be adequate reserves any rider currently not beating them frequently shouldn't be considered. This is no slight on these two who are both steadily improving
  17. Eastbourne are breaking no rules they have one rising star in the team . I would suggest Jason has declined the offer to join the scheme as his previously agreed deal is substantially more than the capped pay rates that the scheme insists on. He can join the scheme at a later stage if he wants to or is invited to. He will ride at reserve and his position in the team is not protected like the other reserve. Also remember the position is protected not the rider so they can be dropped.
  18. In reality thats How I see it my post was in response to one asking what was available either way. I agree we can expect big things of jordan round the EWR and well if we lose at least we know it will be entertaining around our track
  19. Scored 5 in 2019 in cup match had a close inspection of fence in the league and scored 0
  20. We have 7.75 left or 12.78 if we release Simon or 13.24 if we release theo personally think we should try and fill the position with a rider close to jakes average. Don't see having two riders around the 6 to 6.5 average making us any stronger
  21. Was wondering will the rising star programme and the opportunity it gives be wasted by the lack of teams at national league level. No point been a rising star if all your getting is rushed second halfs
