  1. I heard that too, but on mega terms that the management will not match.
  2. Benji Compton stands as much chance of signing for us as Danny Phillips! Macdonald is not in same class as Jake, but not many riders available, and Rob will definitely not break the bank just yet.
  3. Would the "Inner sanctum crowd" like to enlighten the mere Pleb Scorpion fans, who the new rider is?
  4. Let's just sign Rene Bach, or some wealthy sponsors get Jake back asap.
  5. Any news on Jake's replacement? Rene Bach being mentioned in rumours, that would be a good signing for us?
  6. Scunthorpe's Rising Star was confirmed to be included in the team in 2019 and was presented to a fan's forum before he was even old enough to ride for them.
  7. Berge to ride in Sweden and Poland ,so I guess he's out of the equation.
  8. Thought Edinburgh, as the senior club, had first dabs on Friday nights?
  9. School nurse used to do 300 BCG jabs in one afternoon session, so all we need is NHS to get their fingers out. Doctors- does anyone remember them, seem to be in hiding since March???
  10. No ,he will ride for the Scorpions again.
  11. Move on Jenga, Garrity didn't ride for the Scorpions, his last club was Birmingham- even shirley knows that!
  12. Speakers in the carpark work better than the ones in the stadium. Rob needs to invest in some new equipment. If he is going roving microphone, he needs a proper sports mic with wind defector as we can't hear a damn thing. Noticed the other presenter whilst he was on the infield, he was holding the mic around his belly button, maybe that's why he is inaudible!!! Can we also have exclusion lights in a different place so to be more visible from the stands, or get someone trained to update the scoreboard.
  13. Kemp, Bickley and Palin. At the last meeting Archie Freeman looked a good prospect.
  14. Been complaining about the speaker near the stand after the finishing line being poor. Its bad enough the announcer is poor added to the inadequate speaker , folk around me are constantly asking for results, riders etc.
  15. Sorry but there was lots of social distancing. I suppose you personally know all the groups of friends and relatives that can legitimately stand together? A good proportion of supporters (presumably more at risk folk ) were also wearing masks. Certain clubs are trying hard to give supporters some form of Speedway, give them credit ,rather than just knocking their efforts.
  16. Crowd limit of 500, with local Councillors in attendance to probably report back their observations. Crowd well spaced out, with 20% perhaps wearing face coverings.
  17. Think I can evacuate far easier from the EWR than I could Cardiff. I don't think the local authority will count people through the gates for such a low ranking meeting-unless the council worker is on overtime! Lets face it how many speedway meetings in UK are at full capacity in good times never mind with a Pandemic lurking.
  18. First come, first served and there will be a limit . However if Rob gets a crowd of over 6902 I am sure he will be delighted. If he gets over 400 it will be a bumper crowd for a youth meeting.
  19. Bunyen for Sam Masters was a pretty poor replacement for the Scorpions too.
  20. Such a trick track, it was voted Track of the Year again! Wide with many lines and so much passing, pity the recognised Homer's tracks are not as forgiving.Open all year for Amateurs and for practise It caters for all riders from World Champions to beginners.
  21. You can only overtake if you have the skill, or power to do so. Seemed to me track was ok, not usual Championship amount of passing , but perhaps we at the EWR have been spoilt too much in the past? Blame Rob's new Polish shale!
  22. I'm sure Rob and the less bitter, normal speedway supporters, will think nothing of team building until poor Danny Ayres is finally in his resting place.
  23. So shocked at the sad news. RIP Danny ,you will be badly missed.
  24. Awful news. Always gave 100% and a genuine man off track too. RIP Danny.
