  1. Welcome Lewis Kerr . Wonder what would of happened if Taylor Poole had come has a season ever started in so much chaos due to one rider deciding not to ride. Ps this is not a dig at Taylor brave decision to say he wasn't up for it
  2. So as I see it Kerr comes in for lyager leaving us about 1.8 under the limit could then possibly make one more change to give the team the number one it needs don't know who is available on an average slightly higher than 8.
  3. I thought you did an ace job Dan at least you was there for every heat and didn't disappear for doughnuts halfway like you usually do
  4. Outsider I don't believe the team has downed tools (some haven't even picked them up)and agree it's fine margins and don't really like to see gate and go speedway but over the last two meeting we are constantly nowhere near in the first bend thus allowing away pairings to dictate what happens during the race. Yes it's exciting to watch them being hunted down by the scorpions and that's the type of racing I like. For me I take speedway for what it is and result doesn't really matter but for lots of fans they want to see a winning team which we haven't got.
  5. In fairness Lewy after last nights display you could be right wasn't a bad meeting but any team with two riders in third an fourth going into turn one are going to struggle. I had the feeling that we were struggling on track due to the early starts and not having it prepared as well as usually . Last nights display blew that theory out of the water though. Team who are so inconsistent with never more than two riders performing at any time with most constantly under performing. Only riders who can hold their heads high are Douglas and Bailey who are holding up there end of the team. Think there's some tough decisions to be made and glad it's not me making them.
  6. Must say it was the most inept display of refereeing I have ever seen
  7. It's warm and brightening up 10 miles away no rain this morning non forecast
  8. Mr doolan goes well round the EWR think he averages around 6 per meeting is always competitive but never seems to bang in a huge score
  9. Just read this and think I have been given the runaround
  10. I'm not sure on this June when ever the track is hired out its not prepared as it would be for a meeting usually very slick. Think personally that the tigers are a good side with all of them not worried about sticking it in the deep dirt. This comes from skill on the bike and a huge pair of bo##ocks and not necessarily from practicing at the EWR
  11. Saw this lad practice on Saturday looks quick and as said has an all action style looks to have a promising future
  12. Get hold of Richard Hollingsworth at Scunthorpe his number is on the Scunthorpe amateur thread. They have a class for every thing no need for acu licence wulf gear is acceptable he will sort you out
  13. Thoroughly enjoyed that meeting two teams going hard at it some great racing and a very impressive guest. Not the result scunny were hoping for but closer than most expected seeing the line ups.
  14. Can't understand this case comment surely £17 is great value to watch these boys race did you not go to the British semi final
  15. From memory crowds were ok that year no massive increase but has seemed to be a steady decline up to robs plea last year. From what I have seen this year crowds seem even with the post plea meetings. Scunny haven't been helped though by having probably the fairest track in the country with no huge home advantage (some people won't come if your not smashing everyone every week regardless of the quality of the racing) and the huge threat of mass redundancies on the steelworks.
  16. Lyager is nailed on robs said it often enough so that only leaves one spot. Also the big hitter you mention isn't out there to have even if we could afford one
  17. He's got 10k in the bank pays for a lot of stupid that amount of money
  18. In the case of Ashley Morris he knew he was only coming in until holub had an average wether that be a 3 or a 5 and that lyager would come in so I really don't see the problem
