  1. Stefan has signed for the rest of the season, not as temporary cover,Rob has said and written that he hasnt given up on Fritz so maybe another change is due?
  2. scunny twitter page says same, so why no Riss? and Josh doubtful with whiplash
  3. STING! RAFFLE TO RETURN – BIGGER, BRIGHTER AND MORE BEAUTIFUL! THE STING! Riders Fund 50/50 is set to return this Sunday… but with a difference. Instead of using the former programme booth, which is soon to be a food outlet, the sellers will come around the trackside, accompanied by the riders’ glamorous partners, family and friends. We believe the new approach will swell the coffers of the fund, and prize limit, as well as gaining support. It should also bring the supporters and riders closer together. Winning numbers will be announced on the centre green, with results also announced on the website, official Twitter feed and on a new STING! Facebook page. The winner will pick up their winnings after Heat 14, and will pick and present a trophy to the rider of the night. STING! Fund Chairman Paul Duff also has this message: “We are also pleased to announce that we have booked the new bar / entertainment facility for the annual end-of-season presentation night on Saturday, October 21 and will issue full details later in the season.”
  4. not to sound funny or to atgue but why not stand in the elevated areas? the veranda at the bar, the steps near the cafe, the seats opposite the start line, the stands are quite higher up than the red barriers
  5. just watch some of the heats on youtube, edingboro ht 7 probably one of the best heats wiithout any passing, british semi final was top drawer, but at the end of the day its whatever floats your boat about whats exciting,
  6. So it looks like.. Ryan 1 Wilko 2 Lewi 3 Tofty 4 Josh 5 Fritz 6 Lil Josh 7 I would prefer Bezs line up, swop tofty and lewi, think i would prefer lewi in heat 14 especially if it was a meeting winning ride
  7. CAN YOU HELP? We are looking for trainee volunteer correspondents to film events in the following areas: NEWCASTLE, YORKSHIRE (SHEFFIELD/DONCASTER/SCUNTHORPE), STOKE, PETERBOROUGH, WEST MIDLANDS (WOLVERHAMPTON, BIRMINGHAM, COVENTRY) Equipment and training provided. From Tapes Up Productions............Broadsider.Outsider be ideal for you http://www.webjam.com/tapesup
  8. http://scunthorpescorpions.co/?p=6572 cancelled
  9. The official teams for 2017 thread have him as a 2
  10. we always ran on bank holiday mondays so i dont think next year would be diferent,, apart from start times, i believe its going to be 4.30 starts, and dont forget we start at 5.30 on sundays now
  11. I guess it could work but i reckon questions would be asked on who rides for who/.? a bit like the relegation promotion idea, and would there be a handicap system as cl is built to 40 and pl to 50?
  12. Now most teams have chosen their 1 to 7s how do we fair?
  13. blimey only asking,,,, he was in my team before he signed if i remember
  14. Thats how i understand it too...bailey 2 and smith 3, bailey has acheived an average by being in scunnys team, whilst smith hasmt acheived so comes as "assessed" 3 as he wasnt in a team
  15. Hasnt Hansen signed for a polish team so will miss sundays?
  16. There will be lots of team changes next year, be it average reduction, , teams not running , doubling up rules etc, so who would be available or who would we like to see? Who is going to make way?, i was certain with toftys interview last meeting it was him, now reading his speedway star article i am more confident of him staying, also reading other threads that his 7 average is going to hamper him finding a place. What i would like to see is a bit of "team spirit" from the riders, ie, when we get enough points to win the meeting say ht 13 for example, when the 2 riders that got the points get to the pit gate, have the remaining riders there to congratulate them. show the fans some spirit, also it used to be good when they walked through the crowd after the victory parade, lets the fans say well done... away teams that came and won had some interaction with the fans Do riders have to be away just after heat 15? The times ive seen Josh's van leaving if hes not picked for heat 15,Have a post meeting interview with the winning captain and/or rider of the night, have a fan pick the rider of the night, maybe from the raffle tickets, 1st and 2nd get money so do a 3rd draw for a view on the centre in heat 15 then pick the rider? Might increase raffle sales and maybe give the rider an exta tenner or so fot the back pocket
