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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Motor Sports I’m afraid to break it to you, but it is their job.😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But -- isn't Jacob Hook riding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric i Posted yesterday at 04:24 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 04:24 PM 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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scunny1 Posted yesterday at 09:13 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 09:13 PM 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wee Eck Posted 17 hours ago Report Share Posted 17 hours ago 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 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWellBehavedWorrall Posted 16 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 16 hours ago 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozzie4388 Posted 14 hours ago Report Share Posted 14 hours ago Interesting that Scunthorpe have Jacob Hook listed at number 5 tonight I guess you can't do any worse than Palm Toft usually does there (only beats Ingram) Scott could be good back-up with Pickering in Heats 1, 5 and 11 though.

Who knows what will happen? Can’t wait. Your heat leaders were poor at Scunthorpe, Leon was poor to start with last night but sorted his bike and was much better later on. Pickering wasn't up to his usual standard but no doubt back to his best tonight. So it augurs well for a great meeting and who knows what can happen. Personally I think Connor Mountain at reserve could be the difference, how he has ended up at reserve with his ability is crazy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
