Unless we get some rain offs in March and April, by May we will probably be out of BSN and KO Cup. I can see another short season looming.

Harrison lives on Scorpions door step and works for the family firm, so makes no sense to drive hundreds of miles up and down the A1 to Scottish Border.

If ,we win at home, then it will not be by huge margins. We therefore need good point scoring away from home for any aggregate score competitions.

So that's the team . We started out with a great positive signing and then it all went downhill. Here is my take on each rider. Picko -great signing will score well and get 5 rides every match. Harrison- Will be fine at home, needs to improve away form. Mountain- Will be Mr Consistent, with usual 7 or 8 points. Ablitt- A Poole fan's favourite but not Scorpions. Will not progress and a major worry. MPT- A real enigma, brilliant one meeting ,dire the next. Hopefully stays fully fit. Lambo- Rob's mate -say no more. Poor last season, a do or die 2026 season prior to retirement. Ingram- No pressure, just a learning season , hopefully will score more than his average. I can see why forum members think Scorpions will be bottom of the league. I'm not very inspired by the team but live in hope for a good season anyway.

Well at least she is still presentable. We could have had Katie Price do it( between marriages and house moves) for a much cheaper price🤣

MPT surely will get a max at Edinburgh.😁

Heeps, like Jake, did not kick on last season. Hopefully like you say, we can improve the team after averages change.

Looking to be another uninspiring team, apart from Pickering . He is sure to get 5 rides per meeting and plenty of Tactical rides too!

Just stop the speculation and tell us who the other heat leader is please.

Will the next drip feed of the 2026 team be MPT?

Well its gone very quiet on our team building. Drew Kemp, or Zack Cook anybody?

I guess with Glasgow announcing their team ,young Luke is staying with the Scorpions next season? Good lad who will steadily improve.👍

Pretty sure Ryan Douglas would have been more expensive than Dan.

We needed a good number one and number 5 , but neither position impressed this year and come heats 13 and 15 we were consistently poor. Got to change that as next years priority.
