To be fair it was a massive mistake giving him the tactical. Tate has been our best rider along with Thompson Think if you look up Scunthorpe v Leicester matches from 2019 when Leicester won the Championship with Nicholls mostly riding at no.1, you might come across at least one instance of him being beaten by a very young Scunthorpe rider if my memory serves right. Can't recall any especially adverse Leicester supporter reaction at the time, even though he was then just a mere stripling of about 39. Not sure what the Scunthorpe rider/s are doing now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmauger Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Speaking as someone who can declare 'I was there' (cos I was) Scotty had some good races v younger Scunny riders, but at this stage of his career he understandably isn't going to ride halfway up the fence. As a neutral, & therefore unbothered re: the result, some very good racing & Pickering was great to watch, if anyone needs a demonstration or explanation of the phrase 'full send', just watch Picko. Good nite out Friday, enjoyed it as I always do at speedway.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
