Can they not have Jody Scott for Harrison and have r/r for Hook and put it at no2 like TMs like doing? 

Also they were saying on speedway360 podcast that Gilkes was supposed to be making a comeback this week. Is that not happening now? 

They can have that but then Picko wouldn't get a rr ride

As Mr Harrison has said Pickering wouldn't get an R/R ride then 

As for Gilkes he was in King's Lynn National League side last week for their double header he last 2 rides of the first meeting (retired in both) and was never seen again.

I'm not too fussed whether you're having it or not. The fact of the matter is, you can't expect your top two riders to get you out of jail all the time. Speedway teams have seven riders for a reason; if the other five are not performing, surely it's not down to your top two to get you over the line week in, week out. Yes, it was unfortunate that Howarth decided to call it a day, but Zischke wasn't a bad replacement and the Plymouth lad done ok as well in said meeting. Good job they did!! Or tomorrow's meeting would be a foregone conclusion.

I’m afraid to break it to you, but it is their job.😂

His average is too high to replace Hook

The only riders that fit are 

Crash Battye, Jack Smith from Berwick 

Dayle Wood from Oxford

Klima from Plymouth 

Mulford, Lambert or Pijper from Redcar

Jakobsen, Foord or Perry from Workington 

So basically not much

 

 

All very theoretical.  But -- isn't Jacob Hook riding?

Jody Scott for Harrison and Hook back according to the star. Glasgow gone favourites, if Scunny had Jenkins and R/R I would have have fancied their chances. Scunny could really have done with Hook been out for the year, coming back in at this stage of the season is far from ideal.

Jenkins is unavailable (becoming a father) , He's not even riding for Berwick this weekend.

Yeah maybe they think Scott will score more then the 3 points R/R would have got from Harrison's rides (Pickering winning his ride the others trailing in last)

All of a sudden we look weak on paper, but we've been weak all season.Just hope our riders step up, as we are notoriously bad on our away trips.

Forecast in Glagsow is now no rain.

Looking forward to a great night of speedway.

For the Cami haters, this looks like a foregone conclusion…..Scunny move on to see if they can stop the Poole juggernaut. And maybe it is, depending on which Harris turns up. And Hagon. Is it Ziscke that’s guesting? That will help but Glasgow’s reserves will still take a hammering. 
For Scunny, you just know that the best part of half of the points they need will be provided by one rider so surely the other 6 can get 20 or so? Or maybe the other 5 if Lambert’s problems persist. And Mountain should get 10 of them.

it’s Scunthorpe’s to lose - and I doubt they will

[TheWellBehavedWorrall]

Just saw the Tigers’ post on social media with heat fifteen from the semi-final against Edinburgh last season.

What a race. You don’t dig as deep as Harris and Howarth did in that one. Outstanding.

I forgot we had lost 52-38 at Armadale in the first leg. A ball hair less than we lost at Scunthorpe.

Who knows what will happen? Can’t wait.
