Agreed. I should have said that. There is no point interviewing on the infield as you cant hear the chap and I missed some of the times of races from the announcer.

Disappointing result. Not having Jake was a big blow and Worrall looked like he'd never ridden the place before. I just don't think Steve is riding enough. He didn't look sharp away from the tapes. Appreciate there were 30 heats to get through, but the track needed more maintenance last night. A couple of decent races, but by and large it was poor. The scores kept it interesting until it got away from Scunny at the end. Also, can something be done about the PA. In the covered stand just after the starting gate you cant hear a thing.

Hope so

Teams for tonight. Should be a good meeting. Ellie Rose Travel Scunthorpe Scorpions: 1. Steve Worrall, 2. Zaine Kennedy, 3. Declan Kennedy, 4. Connor Mountain, 5. Jake Allen, 6. Luke Harrison, 7. Simon Lambert (C). SD Timmo Car Sales Oxford Cheetahs powered by County Plumbing Supplies: 1. Sam Masters (C), 2. Jonas Knudsen, 3. Antii Vuolas (G), 4. Mitch McDiarmid, 5. Cameron Heeps, 6. Francis Gusts, 7. Luke Killeen.

First, hope that Worrall is OK after a very nasty crash. From the gate it didnt look like Kildemand bothered to turn and just kept going staright. I thought he'd be excluded but the ref obviously saw different with all four. The crashes and the new interval race for the kids meant a drawn out meeting by EWR standards, but a decent night's racing. Good to see Lambo scoring well, you can see what it means to him, hope it continues. Any news on Worrall?

Teams taken from the Berwick website: Scorpions: Steve Worrall, Zaine Kennedy, Declan Kennedy, Connor Mountain, Jake Allen, Luke Harrison, Simon Lambert Bandits: Peter Kildemand, Sam Hagon, Danyon Hume, Drew Kemp, Craig Cook, Tom Spencer, Jack Smith Berwick are using Freddy Hodder on Saturday. Looking forward to another good nights racing at the EWR and hopefully some league points for Scunny and decent shot at the bonus for Saturday.

Not the aggregate win I predicted 🤐 but a terrific meeting none the less. Luke Harrison was superb value once again, a great paid 19. On heat 8, Lambert for me got Killeen on the line. Apparently the transponder said differently. I was told the wire under the track wasn't lined up with the white line? 🤔 All in all a good win on the night against one of the more fancied teams in the league.

Looking forward to another trip to the EWR. I think "we" (I've adopted Scunny) can do it. I'm going for a last heat aggregate decider. 😆

And he said MJJ indicated he would stay if he was happy. Well clearly, he wasn't happy and he's left. When he said that I thought, "he's just realised what he's said and how that sounds now that he's left".

Mick Bell

The end of the year will come and go and there will be nothing announced. He means well (I think) and fair play he's kept Brum going, but the reason that people don't go and watch Speedway in Brum has nothing to do with the word "Speedway" being omitted from the fans replica team shirts. His bit about the motorway service station and people not knowing what he was wearing was comical..... Its because year in year out he builds a crap team. Its poor management, it's the same in any business. No doubt, he runs a successful business, a world he understands, but when you listen to him, its clear he knows very little about running a Speedway Team. A little bit like when we had Mick Horton. If the team was winning, or at least has a semi decent chance of winning at home, more people would go. And in a city the size of Birmingham, there are plenty of other things to go and spend your money on. I appreciate its difficult though as Brum are always left with the riders no one else wants, and as a result all ride out of position. EDIT: You compare Tolley with Peter Facenna later on in the Podcast, which was a great listen, and they are worlds apart. A person who clearly knows what he is doing and has the right team surrounding him.

Best thing to do, as I do, is keep him on block. Lots of others do as well. You'll find its a better Forum.

Yeah, I can understand people feeling like that when reading it. I just like it straight, and I think that paragraph sums up the feeling. Troy might have a reason, though he is a repeat offender of this kind of performance and fans get tired of it, particularly when you've paid your money to watch a supposedly decent number one at work.

I don't think its unprofessional. Tell it like it is / was. Unless he gives the supporters some sort of explanation, that is what we witnessed.

Enjoyable night at EWR. Despite the score line, some decent racing. Sun delay apart, the meeting ran well. Batchelor was a disgrace. There was a good contingent of Worky fans and they didn't deserve that from their number one. Thought Luke Harrison was good value, great rider to watch.
