Looks like 2012 aswell as 2013 could be a write-off for young Nathan. :cry:

I think you will find that Nathan will have to keep the “ROD” in his leg for about 18 months, it could then be removed any time after that subject to medical approval the same as happened with Ben Barker but hopefully without any infections setting in.

But I still find it hard to believe that three riders have suffered broken femurs in 8 days

Luke Bowen at Somerset

Nathan Stoneman at Scunthorpe

Richie Worrall at Workington

 

Good luck to all three and a speedy recovery

Richie has broken his tib and fib not his femur although he was having an op to put them back together.

I know you what you mean and don't forget

It does seem to be a regular injury which takes a huge amount of time to heel as they still aren't back now.

Updates site has it as 56-35. Would imagine that the 2 point difference is down to a TR being used? Maybe one has missed it/included it when it didnt happen?

SCUNTHORPE SAINTS 35 MILDENHALL FEN TIGERS 56 (NATIONAL LEAGUE)

 

IT PROVED to be a highly eventful evening at the Eddie Wright Raceway last night (Friday), with the Jotun Paints Scunthorpe Saints losing to a very powerful Mildenhall Fen Tigers outfit.

 

The Saints were reduced to five riders, after Danny Phillips (badly bruised leg) and Tommy Fenwick (dislocated shoulder) both crashed out of the meeting, while Mildenhall’s Nathan Stoneman suffered a broken femur (leg).

 

The Fen Tigers showed that they meant business from the off, and flew into a 10-2 lead after two races. Heat 2 was re-run after second-placed Danny Phillips fell at the first time of asking, and he took no further part in proceedings.

Gary Irving and Tom Young won their opening outings in Heats 3 & 4 respectively, but a further blow for the Saints came in Heat 6, when both Steve Worrall and Tommy Fenwick (pictured right) came down on the first turn. Fenwick was also withdrawn from the meeting, while the Sain

ts were left facing tracking only one rider in several races.

 

The re-run of Heat 6 saw a high crash for Nathan Stoneman and Max Clegg (who was a replacement for Fenwick), for which Stoneman was excluded. Clegg was soon up, but Stoneman was obviously hurt. The resulting broken femur is almost certain to rule Stoneman out of the rest of the 2012 season.

 

With former Saint (and new Scorpions’ signing) Stefan Nielsen in inspired form and only denied a maximum by a fall while leading Heat 4, it was not long before the Fen Tigers were home-and-dry. Nielsen thwarted Irving’s tactical ride in Heat 9.

 

Saints’ Oliver Greenwood, on his return from injury, took a fine second place in Heat 14, after winning a battle with Josh Bates.

 

Post-match quotes:

 

Stuart Parnaby (Saints’ team manager) -

 

“We needed everything to go right to stand any chance at all against Mildenhall, but that didn’t happen tonight. We were reduced to five riders very early on, and that’s far from ideal.

 

“Danny’s taken a bad bang to his leg. He’s unlikely to fit for the match at Stoke (on Saturday), although we’ll see in the morning how he is feeling.

 

“Tommy is definitely ruled out for Stoke. Tommy’s a hard lad; he’s taken all sorts of knocks doing Motocross. With a dislocated shoulder, it depends on the muscle damage regarding how quickly a rider can recover.

 

“Oliver (Greenwood) needs track time, now he’s back from injury. He looked a different rider in his fourth outing tonight, winning a real battle for second place against Josh Bates.

 

“Mildenhall looked very, very impressive tonight – if they ride like that for the rest of the season, they will be league champions.

 

“But it was a real pity to see young Nathan Stoneman suffer a broken femur. I went out to see how he was, and had to turn back around. He’s going to be out for the rest of the season, and that’s such a shame for a young lad.”

Jotun Paints Scunthorpe Saints 35 – Steve Worrall 5 (4), Tommy Fenwick 0 (1), Gary Irving 14 (5) (incl. 4-point tactical ride), Oliver Greenwood 2 (4), Tom Young 9+1 (5), Danny Phillips 0 (1), Max Clegg 5 (7).

I think it's very likely one had just missed it. Missing something sounds a lot better than imagining things!

Looks like the concensus is Sunthorpe website and BSPA site in two places is wrong.

 

UPDATE

Contacted the BSPA website and they have now amended the result to 56-35 that will do me.

It had been in the fixture list, i never looked at the match report.

 

By the way wasn't being nitpicky or critical, just i needed the correct info for league table compilation. Like the website all is cool and fine.
