I didn't see the mechanic throw his arms up at the start of it all... hilarious 🤷‍♂️🤣

 

 

If that’s the extent of there fight they wouldn’t last 30 Seconds on a Saturday night in Glasgow city centre.

They would probably be someone’s bitches by now  if they fought like that.

We have started this page to support Scunthorpe Scorpion Jake Allen, who during one of his last league fixtures of the season, experienced a series of unfortunate events leaving him with only one salvageable bike going into his remaining fixtures. During his first ride an engine was blown therefore leading him to race on his second bike. In his second a crash caused him to lose the vast majority of his second bike including front wheel, diamond, handle bar and both guards. There was also damage to his forks and helmet. The costs are yet to be determined but are estimated to be £1,500.

 

Jake wanted to publicly thank those who approached him Friday to offer their support, have sent messages since and Colin Poole for his support in piecing together his bent and broken frames since Friday’s fixture.

Glad to see another point of view. If you watch closely as Wright crosses the finish line he hits the rut in gate 4 which puts him right into the path of Jake, he had a split second to sort it out and got it wrong , don’t think it was deliberate but he could have turned straight around on track and apologised but it made for great entertainment anyway. All loved up again afterwards and felt sorry for Jake as the blown engine didn’t help his mood .

He did go to see if Jake was okay. He just did another lap around the track instead of turning back. You could see what Jake's intentions were straight away when he refused the lift back to the pits from Luke Killeen.

That  skirmish probably did the sport more good than harm. I quite enjoyed it myself as it took me back to the times when that type of thing was quite a regular occurrence. It certainly created huge interest.😃 

It makes me smile when I see the authorities quote the rule book as it just makes me wonder where it has been hidden for most of the season.

I trust the co-commentator on BSN will receive a fine for 'enjoying' the scenes and therefore, apparently, promoting violence.

Load of nonsense. If there were scraps (handbags) at every meeting, the terraces wouldn't be so empty.

Actually 2 different organisations, it was the BSPL that put it on their socials not the SCB, but... as proven, especially over the last couple of years, the SCB does exactly what the BSPL wants, so yes I'm inclined to agree.

The integrity of our sport is so corrupt at times!

Well, that's not true.   What do you reckon Mr Vatcher's role is within the BSPL?
